    β˜… 4/10

    Deep Blue Sea was never that brilliant a movie, and this sequel is a damn sight worse. The original can definitely do without Deep Blue Sea 2, and you can definitely do without watching it. Final rating:β˜…β˜… - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product.

  • Tejas Nair
    β˜… 3/10

    One of the weakest shark movies out there. No regard for any plot, characterization, or dialogues - all of which look so bad it works against the whole 'creature feature' experience. Save for a few jumpscares and some chase sequences between man and shark, Deep Blue Sea 2 does not impress. (Grade D). TN.

  • Andre Gonzales
    β˜… 6/10

    The movie was kind of boring till you get about half way through. Some questionable acting too. The only good thing about the movie is the shark babies.
