Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
adamuser I first saw this movie on TV, I missed the beginning of it, then I got it and watch it again, I enjoyed it. I read lots of reviews that said it was not good, I found it nice and good, the creature is good and I really enjoyed, but I can say that few times the acting was not to the level required, it could have been better, but this is a movie, I enjoyed it and do recommend it to others and I do disagree with others regarding the bad reviews, it should be good...... watch and enjoy!!!
John ONeill This movie should never have been released, it's an absolute failure on all levels except for some of the acting. You'll find yourself cringing at seeing recognizable actors in a movie this worthless, I can't imagine that anyone associated with the making of this movie ever brings that fact up on their resume. I had assumed that Peter Benchley had some talent as a writer after seeing Jaws, but I guess he was just a one-hit-wonder. It is too bad that he didn't have the sense to burn the manuscript and take up wood carving instead. Give the "Creature" a shiny sword and he could be a monster of the week on the Power Rangers. The movie could have worked as a comedy if they had at least sped things up a bit, it is so slow and tedious that it can't even be enjoyed as a B-movie train wreck.
Shaughn Balezentes I watched the greatest film of all-time last night in my un-sleepiness. It was called "Creature," and it starred Craig T. Nelson of Coach fame, as Dr. Chase. Dr. Chase gets called into an island community where wither people are reported missing or they are found in bits and pieces. I don't know this informations, as I came in halfway through the movie. Anwyay, for some reason coach is upset and needs to find a new defensive coordinator before the big game or something. At the point where I came in, coach's son in the movie was trying to get this lady to understand that coach was worried about the people on the island.As it turns out there is a secret military base on the island... I don't know how this is important. I later find out the creature was created in the secret military base or something. The secret military base had something to do with the origin of the creature. Anyway, I'm a little scared, because menacing music is playing while the kid is talking to Coach, and then... the creature strikes! I must say at this point that I believe I came into "Creature' at perfect moment, because "Creature" is a 4-HOUR PROGRAM!!!! Anyway, the Creature is an amphibious shark, that is obviously a plastic model that doesn't move. I know this by the way every scene with the Creature is shot, and so will you. This either proves movie making is not rocket science, or the Creature was created with a budget somewhere around $75. the Creature really looks like "Trogdoor the Burninator" of Homestar Runner fame, right down to the beefy arms coming out the back of his neck. Also, in this movie, you can't fight off the creature even though he appears to be about 4'6 and totally inflexible. The attack scenes are just god-awful Anyway, after a while I noticed Samantha from Sex and the City was in the movie. Apparently she answered an ad in the back of a dirty magazine and was on the island in order to shoot some sort of film with the Creature or something. Right about that time I fell asleep. The movie was definitely my favorite made-for-TV moment of all-time.
lancelot_732000 POSSIBLE SPOILERS or warnings, depending on your takeFirst of all, I loved the book White Shark. I love the idea of a Nazi experiment lost in the ocean for years. Surfaces later to prey on people. I loved the idea that the "creature" was basically a man with shark-like attributes, such as implanted metal "teeth", gills, and a somewhat amphibious nature. But I couldn't believe the garbage they put on television. I know that in a tv movie, budgets are lower, actors are usually small time, but the greatest flaw in this picture was the script. Had to change it for the times, I guess. But the fact that it is no longer a Nazi monster, its now a US Navy monster run amok. Its no longer an enhanced human monster, its a genetically altered monster that actually looks like a walking shark. I just wish that Hollywood would either A)Try making the movie more like the book or B) or if you feel you have to change everything, try having an original idea and make an original movie. I loved the book, but this movie is only loosely based on the basic concept of the book, if you loved the book, stay away from this movie.1/10
