About
Dive in for loud, campy monster action and big ocean set pieces; Not for you if you want a serious, well-explained story, or if you hated similar shark chaos like Underwater or 47 Meters Down: Uncaged.
Pros: campy, over-the-top action; giant-creature thrills; slick underwater visuals | Cons: messy story coherence; questionable CGI; slow or confusing first half
