These sharks could blow Jaws outta the water, November 1, 1999
This review is from: Deep Blue Sea (VHS Tape)
At first, I was looking more forward to see Lake Placid, butthis turned out to be much better. The sharks looked great. Surprises everywhere! Just when you think you know what is gonna happen and who is going to make it and who won't, they turn the tables. Jaws was nothing but an overgrown great white who was a maneater. These sharks are genetically altered by humans. It gives a better depth of their intelligence. And unlike Jurrasic Park, it goes even deeper into what can go wrong when you screw around with nature.

Zany Killer Sharks, January 21, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Deep Blue Sea (VHS Tape)
If you enjoy watching typical action-movie characters getting systematically chomped on by some cool and not-so-cool special-effect sharks, then you'll like this flick. The sharks are smart, the underwater lab complex is fun, the action is quickly paced, the hero is a beefalicious hunk of boybabe, and the plot and characterization are too over-the-top crazy to take seriously -- and that's why this flick is a fun ride! Some reviewers here have blasted this movie for its unbelievableness. They miss the point. This is not a National Geographic documentary on shark behavior and the effects of humanity's actions on shark habitat. It's escapist action with bloody thrills. Enjoy it for what it was meant to be.

Forget "Jaws," here comes "Deep Blue Sea", March 18, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Deep Blue Sea (VHS Tape)
Wow. This is really something. "Deep Blue Sea" is the story of human experiments to try and find a cure for alzhiemers. But, the sharks strike back with some smart ideas of their own. The first half hour of the movie is kind o fslow, but once the action starts, it grabs you by the neck and doesn't let go. Great effects, great acting, great sound, and great music make "Deep Blue Sea" a winner in every category!
