評分和評論

Intense aquatic horror in the vein of Leviathan or DeepStar Six. Classic take on a deep sea drilling operation gone awry (not a terribly original setup, but it works). This movie launches into the main action pretty much right away and doesn’t stop. Solid cast, production design/value, and effects. Kristen Stewart is good in the lead, playing tough but vulnerable. Only complaint is not getting to know our crew a little more up front, and it’s a bit repetitive in the middle section. Some cool visuals, creepy moments, and OH SO MANY JUMP SCARES. Doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but sure does make it well. Glad I caught it in the cinema when it came out.

Very good story, solid performances although I still hate TJ Miller, thank goodness he's not in this movie for very long. Lower-budget, but effectively tense, and makes it hard to breathe in parts. Also glad to see Kristen Stewart actually enjoying her role for once.

I went in with low expectations, but this is a surprisingly excellent sci-fi horror action-thriller, with strong Lovecraftian elements. The low Rotten Tomatoes rating it has is completely unjustified, and I recommend it whole-heartedly.
