Horrible! If they had called it something else, it would not be as bad. Then it would just be another B-movie. But calling it Deep Blue Sea 2, sets expecations high. The original was a great shark movie. This sucks.
Wow was this movie bad or what? I for one think it went as a sequel and not a remake, sure, it has plenty of similarities, but there would be close to no point in remaking a movie with a low budget, bad CGI, even weak acting.
So they decided they needed to make yet another Shark movie. With all these indie productions from Asylum and other companies, it is quite hard to make one that will pop-up. And here is where Deep Blue Sea comes into place. The first one, as we all know, was an excellent cheesy fun horror, that delivered plenty!
Part 2 tho, shows nothing new. Some special effects that bow down to those from the original Poltergeist, actors that went too far most of the time, predictable plot and no fun whatsoever! Or scares for that matter. They just went full in with Super Smart Sharks! SSS but no $$$ to support the idea and we are left with an abysmal movie! Such a shame.
Truly, my only regret is the fact that they bonded this one to the original. Deep Blue Sea stands for something!
Cheers!

Just....awful.
Michael Beach is a journeyman actor, but even cannot save this POS. Let's review:
1) A shark scientist who looks like a stripper (Or the director/producer's girlfriend) 2) Assorted people around to get eaten by sharks. 3) A billionaire who travels alone 4) A billionaire who apparently has only a single attorney 5) Zodiac boats used for traveling to locations way offshore 6) A shark trainer who doesn't seem to understand sharks. 7) A shark scientist who's also a pain in the a*s whiner 8) Zero suspense 9) Nobody who understands science working at the facility (You know...like physics) 10) Not a single character who you can care about.
Terrible film that would have been better on Syfy as an Asylum project. Avoid,avoid,avoid.

A direct remake rather than a sequel. Utterly terrible in every aspect. Poor writing, dreadful acting, weak sets, lousy cgi sharks.... the list just goes on and on.
Rewatch the original, The Shallows, or even give Jaws 2 some love not this.

When you go into this just be aware it was bought by the Scifi channel so expect the usual low budget effects and terrible acting and you won't be too disappointed.
I did not know that sharks squeak when they are angry - you learn something new every day...Like not to watch movies like this unless you are drunk or stoned!
Some shocks but not much , not really what shark movie fans would find scary - Stick with great movies like Jaws, Open Water , The Reef and the original Deep Blue Sea but this doesn't compare on any level!

Did you know
- TriviaIn Peur bleue (1999), the shark facility is called Aquatica. In the sequel, the shark facility is called Akheilos. In Greek mythology, Akheilos (or Acheilus) is the son of Zeus and Lamia. Akheilos offends Aphrodite, boasting that he is more beautiful than she, and is then transformed into a grotesque shark-like creature.
- Goofs(at around 49 mins) Sharks have no vocal cords, or any other method of making sound, but Bella's pups all shriek.
