Cinemagraphs Score5.6

Marine biologist Johanne is doing research on a fish farm in Vangsnes, a rural community located by the fjord, when she encounters several strange occurrences. Along with the brutal deaths of two local teenagers, all signs point to the deep fjord; can there be more to the depths than the eye can see? At the bottom of the deepest fjord rests a mythical monster as large as a mountain, with a myriad of arms ready to crush and devour anything they can grab.

Biggest Swing

The film recovers from its lowest point of visual disappointment around the midpoint to find its footing as entertaining monster movie schlock

Kraken starts with promise but quickly loses momentum due to weak characters and slow pacing. The film hits rock bottom with disappointing visual effects before recovering somewhat as a campy monster movie, though it never fully delivers on its premise.
