Kraken

Considering that submarine movies are practically all the same and only differ in length, I can, both as a human and as a viewer, understand the creators' desire to spice things up a bit.

It's just that I wouldn't have named the main antagonist "Kraken" if I were them - too funny, especially when this earnest, tight-lipped scientist lady solemnly unveils its identity for the first time, as if delivering some monumental revelation... even though the thing is on the poster, in the title, and plastered everywhere. They could've done it like in The Meg - something like a giant prehistoric octopus named Tishka or whatever.

But it's watchable, even enjoyable. From the opening scene to the last, I kept waiting for some officer on the bridge to say in Sam Neill's voice, "Bit nippy, Captain," and for the ghost of Sean Connery to reply, "Aye, bit nippy..." Thought maybe the creators would throw in a joke. Nope. Didn't happen.
