About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a fast, goofy, gory sea-monster thrill ride with lots of quips and chaos, in the vein of The Poseidon Adventure; Not for you if you need realism, deep characters, or modern-looking effects.
Pros: nonstop action and momentum; fun, tongue-in-cheek tone; memorable sea-monster mayhem | Cons: cheesy dialogue and acting; dated CGI in spots; thin, shallow characters
