Terror nas Profundezas

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.

Acting is terrible in this, storyline has been done numerous times but the film itself still could have been good, if there had been anybody in it who could actually act. I've seen far worse Shark films than this mind, it's a, "i can't find anything else at all" to watch kind of film. The rating on this will just keep falling and if you watch it you will see why. For those who purely are here to watch another Shark film, you may enjoy, In all honesty the Sharks are probably better actors than the people in it and they ain't even real, say's a lot about the film. Watch it, don't watch it, just don't have any expectations.

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.

Look, I like shark movies especially good shark movies, even guilty pleasure bad shark movies because they are entertaining to watch; but when it comes to this movie, I only watched it because it is a new shark movie that has come out in the year 2023, and I was not that impressed. This new shark movie Deep Fear (2023) was a slow, boring, and standard shark movie that was hard to keep focused on because of how bland the characters are, how the shark is shown, and the uneventful dumb premise to the movie; I do not know what I was expecting from a straight to video shark movie like this.

I did not care about any characters, especially the main character, and there were certain characters that are the antagonists that I found annoying and tiring to listen to; the main character does not have anything about her that is interesting or relatable, all she has is some kind of backstory involving the death of her parents in a boat accident that is not investing and is not brought up that much to make a difference. The human antagonists, who are forcing the main character to avoid sharks and get their drugs, were annoying and standard with me waiting for the sharks to kill them and get rid of them because of how little I cared about what they are doing; also, how their plan to force this girl to get their drugs is badly executed, along with other side characters not making a difference to anything that happens later in the movie.

The sharks themselves were ok, but they do not show up till the halfway point or the third act, and they are slow when attacking these people, other than a few kills being funny to watch, the kills were boring; mostly it is that the beginning/first half of the movie was slow and boring making me lose interest with it taking a while to get going. The cinematography was fine, with there being ok shots of the island they are near, the ocean, and under the ocean where it does look like there was some effort put into it, but it was not enough to make this movie watchable.

I would not waste my time with this movie Deep Fear (2023), it was too slow and badly paced for a shark movie along with it not being interesting or investing to watch; I like shark movies, even entertaining bad ones, but this movie was slow starting, it takes half of the movie to start the main plot, and once the movie ended and the credits started, I was starting to forget about what I just watched. I highly recommend watching better shark movies than this, than waste your time watching this boring and uninteresting shark movie where you cannot be entertained by it.

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.
