Brian G @Goodwibr 1 day ago Unlikeable characters making bad decisions while trapped in underwater caves, being stalked/eaten by a shark. You spend the movie with these insufferable characters, progressing through increasingly preposterous scenes, until the movie is full-on insulting your intelligence as a viewer. The shark special effects were pretty good, and there is some quality in the filmmaking. Also, the main character, played by Katheryn Newton was the one character that wasn't completely awful, and she was an acceptable protagonist. But MAN was this a tough one to get through.

RT See more Marco L @decatur555 4 days ago The cave setting gives The Devil's Mouth an effective survival premise: confined spaces, darkness, water and a predator are enough to create some genuine tension. Kathryn Newton and Lana Condor help carry the film, and the claustrophobic setting works best when the threat remains physical and immediate. The problem is how quickly everything becomes familiar. Too many situations are easy to predict, several solutions can be guessed well in advance, and the logic behind the shark's presence in such an isolated environment becomes increasingly difficult to ignore. Jeff Wadlow keeps things moving and delivers a few effective B-movie moments, so it is never a complete failure. But originality is scarce, and most of its ideas feel borrowed from stronger survival and shark films. Watchable, occasionally tense, but far too formulaic to leave much of an impression.

Don't ever make a movie again 😭 See more Andrei D @RT74856639 Sep 23, 2026 Decent creature feature that doesn't fully follow genre tropes; the shark sometimes behaves absurdly, there's a little too much deus ex machina See more alurq T @RT16621823 Sep 11, 2026 Utterly and abysmally stupid from start to finish. The damned cgi shark changes sizes throughout, apparently has Moby Dick ramming powers that rival Juggernaut and can eat 7 people in less than an hour. Let alone that Bull sharks are rare in Thailand, stay in deep currents, and would never be washed into a shallow riverine cave without a sea outlet regardless of any stupid storm surge. Somehow a seabird just dies from swimming in fresh water? Red tides affect an inland river cave and saltwater bioluminescent plankton just casually thrive in the same freshwater cave? How does anyone write such a stupid story and actually get it funded? This is why we can't have nice things! See more Read all reviews
