On April 28th, Renny Harlan's back with Deepwater, a high-octane thriller channeling those classic 70s disaster flicks like the towering, Inferno. Picture this, a flight from Los Angeles to Shanghai, with 257 people aboard crashes into the Pacific after a cargo fire sparked by, a faulty charger, only about 30 survivors cleaned to the wreckage on a jagged reef, facing off against hungry Mako sharks. The crash hits hard right after takeoff, with turbulence turning into chaos as flames ripped through the plane, gas canisters explode, and the fuselage, tears open. First officer Ben, played by Aaron Eckhart, steps up as the reluctant hero, while 82-year-old Ben Kingsley captains the doomed bird. Harlan nails the action-beats, echoing his old hits like D. Blue Sea. Passengers range from obnoxious jerks breaking rules to blended families and esports gamers, sparking romance amid the panic. Fight attendance show real grit protecting scared kids, but movie logic dooms the reckless

ones early. It's stock characters driving the human drama, with plenty of corniness, but enough hard to keep you hooked. Shark circle in for the kills, yanking folks underwater and bloody bursts, nothing groundbreaking for fans, but solid thrills. The group huddles in the cockpit and cabin sections, dodging fins while rescue feels forever away. These fishermen surprisingly turn into saviors later on. Harlan delivers a fun, formulaic B-movie ride perfect for streaming benches, blending plain peril with shockchamps without reinventing the wheel.
