Featured reviews
We've got a whole cast out of the C list. Mostly unknowns, but that's not a bad thing. Especially the lead "Doctor" who looks quite exotic and must be known for some of her popular series', like Lost. I'd never seen her before. Across the board, most of the acting is a bit wooden, and we didn't always remember our lines, did we. Nevertheless, the photography was great, including the underwater portions. Not quite as sharkcentric as the iconic 'Deep Blue Sea' (1), and certainly not the budget, but just enough tie-in to keep it legit, and a lot of similar set-ups (see: formulaic). I liked it, and it deserves better than the 4.6 is currently has. I'm guessing too many DBS 1 purists and maybe some non-sharkaholics contributing. You know - for the life of me - I can't remember DBS 2. Must have been very unmemorable. I may have to revisit.
Well, this movie came out of the blue, pardon the pun. I hadn't expected to see a third movie in the "Deep Blue Sea" movie series, especially not after the abysmal "Deep Blue Sea 2".
So I sat down to watch "Deep Blue Sea 3" with very little expectations or hopes for the movie, given the previous movie. But still, it is a shark movie, so of course there was a chance of it being good. And I do like creature features.
Turns out that "Deep Blue Sea 3" definitely was a step up in the right direction, as it proved much more enjoyable and entertaining than the 2018 "Deep Blue Sea 2", but still it wasn't as good as the 1999 first movie "Deep Blue Sea".
The storyline in "Deep Blue Sea 3" was enjoyable enough for what it turned out to be. Sure, it was generic and predictable, especially as shark movies go. But still, it was fun enough to watch. Just a shame that the sharks didn't really have that much screen time or played too big of a part in the movie. I watch these movies for the sharks, not for the dubious characters in the movie.
"Deep Blue Sea 3" had a fair enough cast of actors and actresses, however there weren't any familiar or famous faces on the cast list, for better or worse.
If you enjoy generic shark movies, then "Deep Blue Sea 3" is worth a watch. Keep in mind that this is by no means an outstanding or memorable movie. My rating of "Deep Blue Sea 3" is a four out of ten stars.

Bad actors, uninspired story.
What could you expect from a straight to video sequel of a bad sequel? Nothing really. CFI looks good and that's as much positive comments I can make.
Deep Blue Sea 3 (2 out of 5 stars).
Deep Blue Sea 3 is a sequel that is an improvement over the second movie. But still not better than the original. The plot follows a group of engineered bullsharks that are wrecking the ecosystem in a underwater haven which they have to stop.
The plot is terribly put together. The script and direction is cheesy. The humor feels forced with its stereotypical characters. The direction is horrible. The cast ensemble is good but the performances are sloppy. The visual effects is cheap. It does have some entertaining action. But fails with its script and direction.

Although it did have an interesting approach, the cast just made it insufferable to watch. I have no idea where they found these cardboard actors but they are so unlikable that it makes you wish the shark ate them all!
Considering the B rated quality of all other shark movies out there plus how lame Deep Blue Sea 2 was, this one is decent in terms of visual quality and plot, but it's a movie you will forget you ever watched by the next day
