A New Decade! A New Year! Movies Watched In 2020 (641 movies items)"Disaster strikes more than 6 miles below the ocean surface when water crashes through the walls of a drilling station. Led by their captain, the survivors realise that their only hope is to walk across the sea floor to reach the main part of the facility. But they soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they come under attack from mysterious and deadly creatures that no one has ever seen.

Actual Score: 49%. "Underwater" doesn't break new ground, but it's enjoyable, competently made, and acted well enough to make it worth watching despite its derivative elements."
