It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

I know this film really got slammed in User Reviews, but if you approach this movie NOT expecting some new entirely new version of film, then I think you'll find you enjoy the film. First of all, I don't think that there could be a completely new version of "what awaits us in the deep of the oceans" film. However, this film certainly adds a few new twists while not being some huge CGI film. Other than a few shots, I would even say this is a family-safe film, for those who are not easily frightened. I wouldn't recommend for small children, but teenagers could certainly handle this with no problem.And I must admit, I liked the "creature" in this film, it wasn't set out to be some horribly new creature that's supposed to scare us all to death at first site. But as always, take the time to see the film for yourself! You may truly disagree with my opinion... but then, that's the great thing about living in our society... everyone has an opinion and can voice it!Take it easy, ya'll!ST75

Actually had to stop it. Don't get me wrong, love bad monster movies. But this one was way too boring, regardless of the suspenseful music that never leads you anywhere. The actress had too many teeth and that moment when she makes contact with one of the beasts, was way too obvious a cliché. This film totally betrays the cover on the DVD which looks pretty interesting. From the cover one expects a giant monster, but you get these cute not as gigantic as expected electric eels. Moved on to watch another film called The Killer Rats but that's another review. Deep Shock was really crap, a big shame considering the fact that it looks pretty high budget.

This was one of the worst movies EVER!!!!!!!! It was so bad, I was laughing through the WHOLE movie! The plot was SO cheesy; especially the end. This movie turns from an end-of-the-world-disaster to save-the-eels! I mean, c'mon! And I swear...I think they use SOCK PUPPETS for the eels! And there was this horrible kiss scene in the middle with the two main characters who happened to be divorced. How predictable! It was SO terrible that my mom, my sister, and I couldn't finish it, and when we DID finish it, it was about a year later! The second time we watched it and we finished it this time, we did MST3K-like comments throughout the movie.Summary: Only watch this if you're a movie basher! Make hilarious comments, watch this at a sleepover for laughs, and I mean HUGE laughs. Also watch for mockery. The metaphor that explains this movie: This movie is a very shallow field full of cheese and sock puppets!

So let me just say that I rented this movie because of the huge alien-dinosaur-like beast on the cover of the DVD. So I first start to watch this film and you can't help but make fun of the horrible acting, the abysmal filming, and the oh so magnificent script. Well, the first time you see the creature (30 minutes into the film, in case you feel like just FWD-ing through the amazing introduction of plot)you can't help but say, "Hmm... that looks a lot more like Puff the Magic Dragon than an awesome prehistoric alien beastie." But then again, it's not like you have high expectations of a film like this. ANyway, there is some horrible acting by the main female lead. You may have seen her in such Cinemax classics as "Bad Red" and "Just Girl from Australia....or England.....or, wait, what accent are you using today?" ANyway, The plot is really bad because it never really goes anywhere, but tries to create these amazing layers of depth for the characters. My favorite parts of the movie are when the screen flashes the new scene locations so as to eliminate the costly transition scenes required of higher quality films. Overall, if you see this movie sitting on the shelf and have a whopping 93 minutes to kill, It's worth the view, but only if you have a handful of friends with which to mock this great film. Other films I recommend include the fabulous TIMELINE with Paul Walker, and THE CORE. These special movies will touch your heart.I'm out.
