Helmed by Finnish action-meister Renny Harlin (Cliffhanger, Die Harder, Nightmare on Elm St 4), Deep Blue Sea is a video game at best and plays strictly for laughs. A strictly "take the money and run" affair for all concerned, actors the calibre of Sam Jackson (Jungle Fever, Pulp Fiction) , Stellan Skarsgard (Breaking The Waves) and newcomer Thomas Jane (Boogie Nights) are purely fish food for studio sharks anxious for big box office bucks.

This film does not bring anything newto the genre, as it claims in its publicity hype and the CGI sharks are hokey and unrealistic. A visit to Marine World would be more thrilling than this baby, still the "so bad it's good factor" makes it one of the funniest films to come out this year.

Deep Blue Sea sinks and swims, but only just.

For the record Thomas Jane is actually a very good actor- (witness The Last Time I Committed Suicide, The Velocity of Gary)- not that you'd know it from this piece of crap.
Then again YOU try delivering lines like, "I'm just a fishkeeper lady."

That movie was good. Anybody who says it wasn't is just jealous because they can't make a movie as good as that. I jump out of my chair when that shark jumped up and riped that man's arm off and when he ate Samuel. I give the director, writer, actors all 2 thumbs up and any mean critics and thumbs done for being haters. I know a good movie when I see one and that movie was good and made alot of money. That movie made more than you and I put together and I got millions.
