Disturbing yet enthralling
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
I thought this movie was rather good for what it was. I've recently watched A-list movies that were much much worse. It's very watchable and interesting, the characters are attractive, and I like the mythical connotations in the movie. I love Greek Myths and Folklore. I don't usually watch the Syfy Channel, but I came across this movie and got sucked in...it's awesome. My only complaints about this movie would have to be the main character, Ray, although sexy, sounded like he had emphezema. lol But he pretty much made up for it with his sexy looks...as he looks a lot like Ty Pennington. It's not my all time favorite, but definitely worth your time.
uneven,corny but watchable Canadian made "creature feature" movie that starts off promisingly, a'la "Jaws"but then goes into familiar,well trodden territory.Film's subplot that the giant squid is a guardian of the treasure that the film's protagonists seek is not convincing.The creature effects are just standard,no more than that and the look of the creature's tentacles make it look more like an octopus, than a squid.If anyone watching this was not aware it is a TV movie they would soon deduce this as it has fade in's for commercial breaks every now and again.The squid despite being termed a"monster" in fact,looks quite ordinary at times.Film is forgettable but watchable if rather contrived.
This has got to be one of the worst movies i've seen in the last 7 years and i have seen a lot movies in these 7 years, as i can't watch TV in China. I was hoping for a good flick with some scary monster and a would have taken the bad acting for granted but the dialog killed me - lame as...Awesome actors, original dialog, spectacular effects and gosh i loved the bad guys dressed in black - that actually cracked me up! Gotta love the blonde doctors with killer bodies - the second blond chick was a particular great actress - SARCASM if that wasn't clear yet.Anyway can't recommend a bigger waste of time - top choice this one
but I watched the whole thing. Unfortunately full of errors regarding diving as my daughter kept commenting on throughout the movie.Charlie O'Connell is definitely not the actor his brother is (not that his brother is a great actor). The Kraken was not much of a scare. I hated the underwater shots where it was hard to tell the difference between the good and bad guys. The best part of the movie was the jokes we made about it. Watch it if nothing else is on but don't have any expectations about quality. The tentacles of the Kraken are supposedly razor sharp but they only cut some of the time. The ending sucked the big enchilada. You gotta give the folks at SciFi some credit, they keep churning out these films so we can relive the whole B-movie thing of the 50's.
