Still, it’s a mostly fun late-summer film, would likely go down easy with a drinking game.

The female-first vibe is refreshing but Something In The Water is something old, nothing new, a lot that is borrowed and an eyeful of twinkly blue.

Rated: 2/5

Observer (UK)

Something in the Water is competently filmed, with lots of propulsive underwater shark’s eye shots of the flailing legs of the bridesmaids. But there’s rather too much time spent watching the girls bobbing and bickering in the middle of the ocean.

Rated: 2/5

If you want to have fun for just under an hour and a half (there was no reason for it to last longer than that), there are worse options on streaming platforms. [Full review in Spanish].

Rated: 3/5

I only liked Something in the Water to an extent because I like killer shark movies. Apart from that, this is a poorly made thriller.

A lot of girl drama and so little shark. Still, it's a mostly decent film to watch at home

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

A shark movie with character development, a feasible storyline, and likeable characters. A blend of shark and survival. Suspenseful and sad. Well written and acted.

Conseguiram a grande conquista de ser o PIOR dos PIORES filmes de tubarão. A impressão que dá, é de que tentam fazer ao MÁXIMO você não gostar desse filme, e na minha experiência.. eles conseguiram e MUITO. Sem alma, chato, tedioso, e absolutamente nada se salva. Personagens desastrosos, diálogos tenebrosos, piadas HORRÍVEIS, direção porca, e do início ao fim é um GIGANTESCO desperdício de tempo. Por favor, NÃO assistam.

It's poorly written and some details are kinda ridiculous, like htf these girls were sooo many hours in the water without feeling exhausted? But it has some funny moments and overall it's not made to be taken so seriously.
