Deep (2017)

Don't listen to the negative reviews

Crappy film

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Deep, an adventurous "dumbo" octopus and the last one of his kind lives there with his two unconditional friends: Evo, a nerdy and clumsy angler fish, and Alice, a neurotic deep-sea shrimp. When an accident destroys their home, the guardian of the abyss, The Kraken, will send Deep and his friends on a perilous journey to find a new home. Deep has a nice set of colorful and adorable characters unfortunately however the storyline and the jokes weren't that good and the pacing was off to be honest. It's not a movie that even kids will like i guess.

While "Deep" certainly was not an animation movie to make it to the top 10 list of animated movie, it still turned out to be entertaining enough for what it was.While the story does have heavy underlying tones that are far too serious to be put into a children's animated movie, then it was done subtly enough so that the kids will not pick up on the fact that humans destroyed Earth. At least my 8 year old son didn't catch on to that part of the story.It turned out that he rather enjoyed the movie, whereas I found it to be mediocre. It was the fact that everything was so predictable and scripted that sort of kept the movie from taking off and becoming more than just mediocre.The characters in the movie were adequate, although hardly memorable. At least not memorable enough to last long after the movie has ended.The animation itself was good, and I liked the small details they had in all the scenes, such as small pieces of debris or clutter drifting about. It really added to the sense that you were actually submerged into the depths of the oceans that had flooded the entire Earth."Deep" is good enough entertainment for a single viewing, but I doubt that I will ever be returning to watch it a second time around.

I thought animation films can't go wrong, but this film proved me wrong. The 2 stars I have given are for the character animation which were well done (not great though) and that's the only thing that's good about the film. Everything else is so bad, that the first 15 minutes will tell you to stop watching this film. I would have called this a student's project but the character animations were good. The story is horrible. It's such a shame. Don't watch this film. The writing is so bad, not just the story but even the characterizations are really bad. The film was so bad that I had to watch Finding Nemo to make me feel better.

I find this movie kinda funny. It isn't the best animation of all time, but at least it has what it needs for the general public to enjoy, like amusing scenes, lots of action and bubbly characters. It's something like "Finding Nemo/Dory", but in this case we have more than one lovely fish who has to save the situation and there's a rescue mission, rather than one where a fish has to be found. It was good. Not that good, but good enough.
