Researchers on the undersea lab Aquatica have genetically altered the brains of captive sharks to develop a cure for Alzheimer’s disease. But there’s an unexpected side effect: the sharks got smarter, faster, and more dangerous. After a big storm damages their remote research facility, they must fight for their lives.

I’m not a Renny Harlin fan by any means, but I’d seen parts of this movie so many times in the past, I figured I owed it a full viewing for the first time.
It’s not a terrible movie by any means. Even though it’s outlandish and contrived, it’s decent escapist fun.
The CGI shark effects don’t hold up really well; they feel pretty fake and dated; but otherwise isn’t too bad.
Samuel L. Jackson probably plays the straightest role in my memory; Thomas Jane acquits himself well enough.
