Ava (Sophie McIntosh), the daughter of the Governor of California, is hoping for a peaceful getaway with friends in the resort town of Cabo, Mexico -- with her faithful minder Brandon (Colm Meaney) in tow. But when the plane crashes in the Pacific Ocean and comes to rest on the edge of an underwater ravine, Ava and a handful of survivors are trapped in the airlocked cabin. Against the odds, Ava must fend for herself, contend with bloodthirsty sharks, and find the courage to step up and lead the crash survivors to safety.

Critics Consensus

Taking a promising premise and driving it straight into the sea, No Way Up doesn't have enough fun with its nerve-shredding concept.

John Anderson Wall Street Journal 06/06/2024
The one selling point of No Way Up is that it makes you scared of being scared, which may be enough for a lazy evening on the couch with a friend, a drink and a meal, though it probably wouldn’t work on sushi night. Go to Full Review
Samantha Schuster Cinéfilo Serial Jul 18
1.5/5
The special effects are adequate but not dazzling; the characters are flat, the subplots uninteresting, and what's initially presented isn't utilized further; and some decisions diminish the story's credibility. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Dave Golder Radio Times 07/31/2024
2/5
With cheesy dialogue and easily predictable moments, this may be far from high art but it embraces its clichés like old friends and delivers some claustrophobic tension and fun action. Go to Full Review
Sebastian Zavala Kahn Me gusta el cine 04/01/2024
3/5
Most performances are good, the visual effects are surprisingly decent, and the entire experience is digested in just over an hour and a half, which is increasingly rare these days. Full review in Spanish. Go to Full Review
Chad Collins Dread Central 03/15/2024
2.5/5
No Way Up not only contends with killer sharks, but also irreconcilable visions. A self-serious tone sucks all the oxygen out of what was otherwise an effective killer shark flick. Go to Full Review
Erick Estrada Cinegarage 03/07/2024
If there is one thing noticeable when reviewing the nonsense in the movies of the good Claudio Fäh, is that as a child he enjoyed all kinds of movie nonsense. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Gerardo I 02/26/2024 Very intense and entertaining film! See more Biff M @Crazytrain 1d Logic went totally out the windows at the end of this film. This would've been an okay B-movie if they ended it right. However the absurd ending ruined an okay movie See more Diana B @RT18245352 4d This was an enjoyable film. See more Igor S @Igor_Sena May 22 Hilarious; and not in a good way. Don't waste your time. See more Carlos T @RT67858720 Apr 30 Após a queda de um avião em mar aberto, um grupo de sobreviventes precisa lutar contra o tempo, os ferimentos… e algo ainda mais letal. O oceano. Mas não apenas ele. Uma colônia de tubarões transforma o que já era desespero em um jogo de sobrevivência brutal. Isolados, sem recursos e cercados por predadores, os sobreviventes enfrentam não só a morte iminente — mas também seus próprios limites. E como já é esperado nesse tipo de narrativa: um a um… eles vão caindo. 🎬 Análise crítica O problema de Desespero Profundo não está na proposta — porque ela já funciona por si só. Sobrevivência, mar aberto, tubarões… isso sempre gera tensão. O problema está na execução. O filme bebe diretamente da fonte de Tubarão — um clássico absoluto que redefiniu o gênero — mas sem compreender o que o tornava tão eficaz: construção de suspense. Aqui, os tubarões não são ameaça… são conveniência de roteiro. ⭐ Nota final: 4 / 10 See more Nicholas T @RT80073106 Mar 23 A hard watch. Terrible acting, predictable and bleak. If you are looking for some shark filled fun, look elsewhere. See more Read all reviews
