Featured review
Look, I like shark movies especially good shark movies, even guilty pleasure bad shark movies because they are entertaining to watch; but when it comes to this movie, I only watched it because it is a new shark movie that has come out in the year 2023, and I was not that impressed. This new shark movie Deep Fear (2023) was a slow, boring, and standard shark movie that was hard to keep focused on because of how bland the characters are, how the shark is shown, and the uneventful dumb premise to the movie; I do not know what I was expecting from a straight to video shark movie like this.
I did not care about any characters, especially the main character, and there were certain characters that are the antagonists that I found annoying and tiring to listen to; the main character does not have anything about her that is interesting or relatable, all she has is some kind of backstory involving the death of her parents in a boat accident that is not investing and is not brought up that much to make a difference. The human antagonists, who are forcing the main character to avoid sharks and get their drugs, were annoying and standard with me waiting for the sharks to kill them and get rid of them because of how little I cared about what they are doing; also, how their plan to force this girl to get their drugs is badly executed, along with other side characters not making a difference to anything that happens later in the movie.
The sharks themselves were ok, but they do not show up till the halfway point or the third act, and they are slow when attacking these people, other than a few kills being funny to watch, the kills were boring; mostly it is that the beginning/first half of the movie was slow and boring making me lose interest with it taking a while to get going. The cinematography was fine, with there being ok shots of the island they are near, the ocean, and under the ocean where it does look like there was some effort put into it, but it was not enough to make this movie watchable.
I would not waste my time with this movie Deep Fear (2023), it was too slow and badly paced for a shark movie along with it not being interesting or investing to watch; I like shark movies, even entertaining bad ones, but this movie was slow starting, it takes half of the movie to start the main plot, and once the movie ended and the credits started, I was starting to forget about what I just watched. I highly recommend watching better shark movies than this, than waste your time watching this boring and uninteresting shark movie where you cannot be entertained by it.
