Deep Fear

The storyline is fine, everybody loves a shark movie - but you need a few characters you care about for it to work. And this movie actually has that, but the main character... wow, that's just cringey, and it ruins the whole movie. She doesn't come across as particularly resourceful and skilled at sailing or diving, and frankly... isn't that kind of the premise of the film? Ghenea is incredibly beautiful, and I have no doubt she's a stunning model, but this movie is more or less gratuitous shots of her features - and it just becomes cringey. If she can act, the director failed her miserably.

I looked her up, and can see that she had a cameo as Sophia Loren in House of Gucci. Now, that's a part I could actually see her rock, because it goes well with her femme fatale appearance.

Watch The Shallows instead for a female lead shark movie that's actually worth watching. Or even Crawl with the sharks being substituted for alligators instead.

An unforgettable experience for the worst possible reasons. The plot isn't bad, although predictable, but what destroys any chance of taking the film seriously is its development. The script takes too long to present the real conflict - the fight for survival that is mentioned in the microsynopsis - and when it does, where's the tension? None, absolutely NONE of the danger scenes electrify the viewer. And everything is made even worse by the performance of the lead actress. She needs to cut down on the botox if she wants to have any future in the industry. Utter nonsense. It's not so rubbish as to be amusing, because it takes itself seriously all the time.

Either way its a bad indicator of the state of the writing business. This plot might have very well been scratched onto the back of a napkin with a toothpick. The story was so unimpressive and the acting was cringe I don't get how this got the green light. The lead is a very voluptuous female captain who shows no signs of any sailing experience. She pulls on sail lines without any purpose and grinds like she's hand mixing cookie dough. She's likely gotten all her acting skills on insta. The plastic surgeries and botox rendered her into an expressionless cardboard cutout. So can anyone else act in this movie? No they all stunk and their mish-mosh of unintelligible accents made the dialogue frustratingly painful to follow.

The shark wasn't even the real antagonist its just simply there waiting for dinner. I gave it 2 stars for location and scenery.

Bad script, bad directing, bad soundtrack, bad pace, awful acting. The CGI of the sharks was the only decent thing in this hard to watch movie.

In fact, it was so bad it becames cringe, painfully to see. They really have no idea what to do and you can see this in every scene of this garbage.

As a SF/horror fan, this film looks like a SyFy production, only worse, because SySy it's bad on purpose, this is bad as a supreme stupidity.

Anyway, as a romanian i can appologize only for the Madalina Ghenea, a female with no acting talent what so ever. And the same charisma as a dead fish. I'm so sorry we gave her to you, no one deserves the pain of seeing Ghenea acting.

For the rest of this trash, it's not my fault. Sometimes, s### just happens.

Watched it as it was filmed in my island Malta,

There was a big hype about it, but I was extremely disappointed. The plot sucked, the acting was at best 2/10.

The Aerial shots kept changing from the The Caribbean and suddenly we have a different landscape and it's in Malta.

I've seen many shark movies but this will go down as one of those you should have missed. The attacks and kills were so fake, some water scenes looked unnatural like one is standing rather than swimming.

The plot could have been better but the terrible acting killed the movie.

Hope I will make up for the time lost whilst trying hard to get into the move.

A Big Miss.
