One of the most boring "adventure" movies ever made

although deserves a special mention for Jaqueline Bisset's chest.........

A great flick. Definitely not to everybody's liking- as the scores here indicate- but as a big fan of both Jaws and Peter Benchley's novels, I thought it was very well-done. The underwater photography is gorgeous, the plot moves at a brisk pace, and the acting certainly gets the job done. And it's wonderful to see Robert Shaw bring a Benchley character to life once more.

Very good film much better than it's remake "Into the Blue". And it was even much sexier, the costumes were good and the action was strong.

I was shocked to see that "Into the Blue" (with Jessica Alba) did not admit it was a remake of this film, or at least that the makers of "The Deep" didn't sue "Into the Blue". I would have. That being said, I really enjoyed this film and "Into the Blue". So if you liked "Into the Blue" watch this; if you didn't, don't. Over all I'd say it's an above average ocean/shark film. I liked it better than "Jaws" by a long shot and a little less than "Deep Blue Sea".

Not bad.

Surprisingly good for its age. Bissett and Nolte are top notch while a young Gosset Jr. certainly holds his own. I found the soundtrack jarringly absent at times, but aside from that, a movie that deserves its praises and accolades...even 31 years later.
