So bad it's funny. Every line a cliche. Boys loved it. Dd (19) and I howled silently throughout most of it.

It was awesome! Everything a cheesy action movie should be. Loved deep blue sea back in the 90's and this was every bit as good!

Thanks

Saw it today, wasn’t expecting much to be honest but really enjoyed it. Yes it’s cheesy and the plot is ridiculous but I still loved it.

Though it fab when he was singing ‘just keep swimming...’

Thanks

Oh yes that cracked me up.
My oldest has been practising the line about 'better nature' in a deep, manly voice.
It's like a GCSE project for an action film.
Who was looking after that poor kid while they all went off in the boat?

A great summer film i thought. Not to be taken to serious. The little dog surviving was a nice funny little end clip

Thanks

I enjoyed it it was a good 'la la' film, but did they really choose the actress who played the daughter of the scientist, to have the worst acting skills....

But hey ho it was just a bit of nonsense.

We loved it, but I have a question. Where did the first Meg come from, the one that hit the nuclear sub? Because that was before they broke through the gassy layer thing and let the second Meg out.

And the little kid was annoying, why wasn't she in school?

Jason Stratham was utterly ridiculous in it, I laughed a lot at the shirtless scene.

Thanks

Took DS2 to see it last week because he likes sharks (and prehistoric creatures). Very cheesy but fun. But apparently, according to DS it was quite unlikely to happen (no, really DS )

Thanks

DC loved it as they are scared of sharks and were terrified by it, I loved it cos of A) Jason Statham and B) hilarious scenes.

Some bits were so over the top even my 8 yr old laughed at them!
