shark attack creature scientist shark killer shark genetic engineering

Plot summary

Researchers on the undersea lab Aquatica have genetically altered the brains of captive sharks to develop a cure for Alzheimer's disease. But there's an unexpected side effect: the sharks got smarter, faster, and more dangerous. After a big storm damages their remote research facility, they must fight for their lives.

Hidden Pleasure

Im going to keep it short.This movie should be awful, but actually it is really entertaining, whenever it is on TV I watch it without hesitation. Not the best special affects or acting for that matter. LL Cool J's acting is like the movie, poor but entertaining.Overall the movie isn't the best, but it is definitely watchable and thoroughly entertaining, it keeps you wanting to watch more because its very action packed.If first time watchers are reading this, I would say definitely watch it. :)

Camp action but too stupid

Dr. Susan McAlester (Saffron Burrows) leads a team of scientists in Aquatica, an offshore research lab, to cure brain diseases like Alzheimer's. After a terrifying escaped test shark, investor Russell Franklin (Samuel L. Jackson) goes out to investigate. The scientists are expanding the brains of sharks, but the Harvard Genetics Compact doesn't allow the sharks to be genetically modified. At least, they are not supposed to.None of it makes that much sense. Why built a facility offshore? Why not just built big tanks like an aquarium? If all they're doing is raise sharks, there has got to be an easier way. It's begging for trouble when the next big storm to hit. The whole thing doesn't past the smell taste. If you can get past the stink, there are some fun action and some water games. But I would mostly recommend against watching this.
