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.

A veces uno solo necesita un Jurassic Park+Tiburón para entretenerse, tiene a Samuel L. Jackson y todo. LL Cool J es el MVP de la peli, claramente.
