Under Paris (2024): ⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was a lot of fun. Completely ridiculous, of course, but just the right kind of ridiculousness to be enjoyable. You’ve got the scientist who people don’t believe, the plucky up-and-coming younger rebel, the police officer with a tragic past, short-sighted incompetent city bureaucrats, and the requisite toothy creature and soon-to-be-chomped extras. Extra points for consistent visibility (there were scenes set at night in underwater underground catacombs in murky city river water, and you could still see what was going on) and a better-than-expected end (and some fun backgrounds to the credits, as well). Absolutely worth the time if you’re in the mood for a giant shark movie.
