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

... 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.

Film Feeder

While it might not be an especially groundbreaking shark thriller, Something in the Water has a fine enough grasp on its characters and tone that give it plenty to chew on.

This film was one of the worst I have seen. They used all the budget on the leg scene at the beginning and the rest of the film dragged

I fucking love the filmography and actors. I love the plot. The outerbanks vibe. I love the peril and danger. I love the thrill. I put my phone down when they got on the island and couldn't take my eyes off the screen since. I rewatchex this movie binged it and replayed it over and over again. I HATE the big corporate reviews and assholes that sensor everything good and replace it with false facts and opinions. This world is getting so ridiculous where good and joy is replaced with sorrow and emptiness. The people who are never fulfilled by anything are ruining the world today. There. it's been heard.

So slow. So incredibly slow. Finally when sharks ARE involved they bull rush the girls and then go jk, and swim away after causing a small scratch. It's almost funny how bad/stupid it is but it definitely wasn't worth the watch. Bad acting, bad plot, barely any sharks. 1/10 can't think of a movie I regretted watching more.

I wish I could get back the time I spent watching this terrible movie. Boring plot and awful CGI when you finally get to the sarks in the final moments. Do not watch!
