> Normally I wouldn't do this, but once in a while a movie SO bad comes along that I need to trash it. This is one of them. I want the 2 hours of my life I spent in that theater suffering through this movie back! I felt so compelled to walk out of there, but I was filled with a form of morbid curiousity which kept me there, just to see how bad it could truly get. The whole plot can be summarized by this:
>
> "Oh no, genetically engineered killer sharks on the loose"
>
> "Let's keep running and closing flood doors" (this happens over and over and over, each time accompanied by loud music. This was the movies only way of trying to generate excitement)
>
> Please! Please do not see this movie!! I knew it was bad just by the title, I mean, Deep Blue Sea? That's too obvious, that's like..."Wet Water" I only saw it cuz Star Wars wasn't and I needed something to do.

I have to agree with you on this one. The hokey title and a few clips were all I needed to know I didn't want to see that turkey. I try not to prejudge people, but with movies.....
