Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With a box office loss and almost no lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Best for people who like to watch through their fingers and people who love a story set somewhere strange. Popcorn viewing in the best sense. Same wavelength as Spectral or Alien: Romulus.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Keeps the tension tight, at 1 hr 30 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Rated PG-13: scary moments. Probably too much for younger kids.
  • Not for anyone who finds explosions tiring.

A military vessel on the search for an unidentified submersible finds themselves face to face with a giant shark, forced to use only what they have on board to defend themselves from the monstrous beast.
