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

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.

Rated: 2/5

... Although this film does not come to reinvent anything, what it does, it does well. [Full review in Spanish]

Ultimately, Something In The Water just isn’t scary or thrilling enough to keep us invested.

The best acting came from the shark and wildlife. I can’t begin to tell anyone how stupid some of the decisions made in this film were. On a side note, the women seemed to be standing up in the ocean for half the movie. Terrible!!

Filme não trás nada de novo, é tudo do mesmo e se você espera ver tubarão esse não é o filme que você procura, tendo cenas aonde não se mostra nem o ataque do tubarão a personagem simplesmente desaparece.

The title sounds lame, but of this type of movie, it was better than most. Yes, liked it,

I was worried this would be another trashy shark film, but it wasn't. It's decent! Finally a good plot, with characters where you will all to survive. It's emotional and is based on friendship and love. So glad I watched it.

There is no possibility in the world that a group of women are capable of making so many mistakes, one after the other… it is just painful to watch how can every single person took wrong decisions one after the other non stop, … obliging the friends to meet, leaving the friends alone in the island obligating to swim to meet them again, no water, going on a garbage boat, no security or safety measures, lock away the cellphones, not knowing how to swim, just sending one to swim instead of trying to go all together, behaving emotional “i have to talk to her” swimming in the middle of the fucking ocean living her vulnerable friends behind, throwing the knife, loosing the vest for looking for the obviously dead last friend, there is no way, it goes and on…. What a crap, and the only part at the end … with the rock… just a cheap copy of Blake Lively’s movie. … and to complete the picture, all friends resulted to be “swifties”. Honestly what a crap.
