5.0 out of 5 stars Praise Sherman
Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2022

It’s always a great sign when a shark takes down a helicopter in the first 20 minutes!

A lot of shark movies lose steam partway through but this one just kept getting momentum because Sherman kept being on screen and having lines!

Our enjoyment of this film was based largely around two factors:
How likely Susan was to die
How likely Sherman was to live

Sherman is maybe the best character we’ve had in a movie since Fin Shepherd himself.

Therefore this is a great and perfect movie. We had a lot of fun chanting for Susan’s blood and screaming about how flimsy this entire lab was considering they built super sharks that can throw a dude hard enough through water to just shatter the glass? Like that seems like a major oversight.

Samuel L Jackson is in this and he dies unceremoniously in the middle of a sentence in his built up avalanche-related backstory and it is GLORIOUS.

However, the credit song we have decided is a spiritual predecessor to the Ballad of Sharknado and therefore redeems any remaining flaws this movie has.

When I saw this film during its initial release, the film swept the audience along and kept our adrenaline rushing throughout its running time. When we watched this recent addition to our DVD library that same adrenaline rush was there, even though we knew where the plot was going. Great action film. Won't disappoint.

I rented this when Blockbusters was still kicking. Wow, I know right !!!!! Anyway it really is a good movie. Such a different plot from most shark movies. i like shark movies, not the stupid ones though. You know the ones. If you do, I won’t judge !!! Just not my thing. This movie makes you stop and think a little bit about how far do the pharmaceutical folks go to make the big bucks we all know they get. I won’t go farther than that, no spoiler alert here !! The story does out do the special effects here, but consider when it was made and budget. LLCool J is fantastic in this. Such a different part than what we associate with him. Anyway watch this movie. There are 2 other movies after this, trust me, you really don’t need to see those. Of course you may be like me and just want to see where they went with this story. I was disappointed a lot. This is a good movie. Try it.

This movie is terrifying and exhilarating all at the same time! I was so pleased to be able to show a favorite of mine to my children. My 9 year old had to leave the family movie night, not my best decision.

5.0 out of 5 stars 2nd Best Shark Film Yet
Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2007

Of course every shark film made after 1975 will get compared to Jaws. Jaws is a classic from start to finish. I dont consider Deep Blue Sea a classic, but its still a very good film. It shouldnt be compared to Jaws because its really NOTHING like it other than having sharks in both movies. Ive always enjoyed the films acting and its furious pace. Its really an action packed thriller. Thats the best way to describe it. Deep Blue Seas special effects have been talked about ever since the film came out. Of course, opinions vary on if the effects are good or bad. I personally havent seen a movie where the CGI stuff looked 110% real. Nevertheless, I think the sharks look pretty cool. Maybe not completely real, but they look really good. I thought the effects as a whole were always awesome in this. The effects are some the factors that make the film good but they arent what make it great. What makes this great is the pace and action scenes during the entire film. It doesnt stop with the action, the whole film is like one huge ride. Its pretty much nonstop. Like I noted, the acting is good too. The actors certainly did the best they could with what little dialogue they had. Thomas Jane played his character very well and I loved his performance. Ive seen the film numerous times and every single time Ive been entertained to the fullest. Thats what its meant to be is entertaining, not a huge epic. I loved this from the first viewing. I think that its underrated and deserves a lot more credit. I recommend it to those who like a good thriller or action movie.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun (if predictable) ride
Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2014

I enjoyed this movie for several reasons, including the choice of actors - I thought everyone did a good job with their individual characters (spoiler - most of whom get eaten). This is one of those films about: "Look what stupid humans did to create monsters (in this case, sharks) for our own profit (in this case, for Alzheimer's drug research), and lo and behold, our creations turn on us in the most horrible way (they eat us)". The special effects (the sharks) won't wow you, but they're pretty good. The story is somewhat unbelievable, but it's real enough to keep you engaged. And let's face it, everybody fears being eaten by a shark, no matter how close they ever come to the ocean, so the constant scrambling by the characters to avoid this fate is sympathetic, at the very least. Saffron Burrows, as the scheming, hard-assed doctor in charge of this doomed crew, is very good. She gives the term "ice cold bitch" new meaning. Samuel Jackson as her financial backer, trying to decide if he will pull his funding after an "accident", is a great foil for her. Worth a rental.

This is a "bad" movie and by bad I mean absolutely amazing and fun. Goes great with pizza, turn your brain off, and enjoy the ride. The CG is dated, but what they use CG for is amazing. Also, there's a ton of animatronic work and those scenes looked great. Overall, just a fun time.

レニー・ハーリン監督が魅せる一級のサバイバル・アクション映画に仕上がっています。僕的にはあの『ジョーズ』よりも見応え充分な映画だと思いますね（ジョーズは観飽きた）。ハーリン監督の観客の期待を裏切る予想外な演出には驚きました。サメ使いのカーター役を熱演するトーマス・ジェーンが、男気タップリの芝居を魅せてくれます。見せ場が多い演出にも好感が持てましたね。スピルバーグ監督の様に観客に❛媚びる❜様なイヤらしい演出は本作品には一切ありませんね。ハーリン監督の演出力は一級です。未鑑賞の人は是非とも御覧あれ。以上です・・お粗末でした。追記⚡本作品の続編がありますが僕的には駄作です。観る価値無しです。じゃあ👋See you again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Es gibt nichts Beängstigerendes, als etwas, das echt ist
Reviewed in Germany on August 28, 2016

" Nicht Gottes Willen. Unserer. "
Lobender Weise muss ich sagen, dass der Film mich echt mitriss.
Dass Wissenschaftler größenwahnsinnig sind, ist allgemein bekannt.
Dass " Der weisse Hai " der Siebziger Jahre ein gefährliches, allesfressendes Monstrum ist,
weiß inzwischen auch jeder. Doch dass dieser Kultfilm nach Zwanzig Jahren einen ebenbürtigen
Reisser bekommen würde,- damit hat doch eigentlich niemand gerechnet. Ehrlich. Ich nicht.
DEEP BLUE SEA ist vielleicht etwas überzogen und mit eher oberflächlicheren Charakteren, doch und aber-
die Technologie, Zwanzig Jahre nach " Der weisse Hai " , hat sich entwickelt: Der Hai schwimmt selber.
Walt Conti ( Shark Effects ) : " Manchmal agieren die Schauspieler gar nicht- sie REagieren nur. Wenn man
einen 3600 Kilo Hai hat, der Wasser auf dich wirft, dann ist das keine Fälschung- das ist real. Es dauerte Acht Monate,
die Haie herzustellen....".

************************************

Story:

Aquatica- ein Unterwasser- Labor- mitten im Atlantik.
Hier führen Wissenschaftler Experimente an genmanipulierte Haien durch.
Doch plötzlich entwickeln die Versuchstiere beunruhigende Eigenschaften:
Sie werden größer, intelligenter........und boshaft(er) - nach einem verheerenden Sturm
gelingt es den Haien, sich zu befreien...........................................................

*****************************************************************

Fazit:

Hätte es nicht geglaubt, hätte ich es nicht mit meinen eigenen Augen gesehen-
DEEP BLUE SEA ist hervorragend, stellenweise klaustrophobisch und ein ständig nasser Horrortrip,
der randvoll ist mit gefräßigen Haien und einer zunehmend " Der weisse Hai "- würdigen Atmosphäre.
Die Haie, die mit spitzen Dingen im Kopf traktiert werden,- sinnen auf Rache. Intelligenz gegen Instinkt?
Oder gar Intelligenz gegen Intelligenz? Sieht man dies nicht zu streng überkandidelt, ist DEEP BLUE SEA
von der Umsetzung her tadellos gemacht. Die von Menschenhand gezeugten Killerhaie, die sich rächen.......,
ein Happen, der sich sehen lassen kann- ohne zu schämen.
Besonderes Augenmerk verdient auch klar das Bonusmaterial- Aufnahmen aus dem ins Meer gelassene Käfig,
um die Bewegungen der Haie genauestens zu studieren. Und nicht nur mit konstruierten " Fressmaschinen "
die Angst des Zuschauers zu schüren. Klasse.

Lauflänge: 100.37 Minuten ( mit Abspann ) !

Special Features ( deutsche Untertitel ) :

- Audiokommentare!

- Wenn Haie angreifen= 15 Minuten!!

- Die Haie von Deep Blue Sea= 8.22 Minuten!!

- Deleted Scenes= 8 Minuten!!

- Kinotrailer, Fotogalerie!!
