Overview
- Deep Water, a survival thriller from director Renny Harlin, is now in theaters with Aaron Eckhart leading a cast that includes Ben Kingsley and Angus Sampson.
- The story follows airline passengers who fight to stay alive in open water after an emergency landing in seas known for sharks.
- Early reviews praise a midair‑to‑ocean crash set piece and describe the shark attacks as fast and graphic, while noting uneven visual effects.
- Production took place in a controlled water tank in New Zealand, with all sharks created using CGI rather than real animals.
- Aaron Eckhart says he drew on his fear of flying and years of surfing to shape a steady, take‑charge pilot focused on keeping panicked survivors together.
