Reviews for Leviathan
Forgettable and predictable, but with a good cast and some fun special effects.
The latter half of the film is one long feeding frenzy, guided by a familiar horror-film principle: survival of the best-looking.
Okay effects, good performances, and just a little more than the FDA- recommended daily minimum allowance of mindless entertainment and chills.
There are some interesting psychological overtones here that have to do with genetic research, but they are never explored.
Cheesy underwater monster movie that, for some reason, I have a perverse enjoyment of.
