gavin6942 Thirty years ago, Ray Reiter (Charlie O'Connell) witnessed the death of his parents by the kraken. Determined to avenge their murders, he joins a perilous high seas expedition that brings him face to face with the kraken, the guardian of the Greek Opal. Oh, and there is a crime lord involved in here somewhere, too.This film is pretty awful. It looks like it was made for the SyFy network (and probably was), and its star power is Charlie O'Connell, the cheap version of Jerry O'Connell with a nastier voice. There is a part where they are looking for a Trojan mask. I have no idea how it got underwater, or how they had photos of it before it was surfaced (although two others exist).Product placement from Diet Pepsi. How Pepsi felt this in any way helped their image is beyond me.The soft pop rock totally not necessary... takes away from the film, which would have been better with a non-vocal score.Christa Campbell appears, but this does not save the film.

jadflack uneven,corny but watchable Canadian made "creature feature" movie that starts off promisingly, a'la "Jaws"but then goes into familiar,well trodden territory.Film's subplot that the giant squid is a guardian of the treasure that the film's protagonists seek is not convincing.The creature effects are just standard,no more than that and the look of the creature's tentacles make it look more like an octopus, than a squid.If anyone watching this was not aware it is a TV movie they would soon deduce this as it has fade in's for commercial breaks every now and again.The squid despite being termed a"monster" in fact,looks quite ordinary at times.Film is forgettable but watchable if rather contrived.

lastliberal Mansquito, Mega Snake, Ice Spiders, and now a big squid just waiting to be turned into delicious calamari. Tibor Takács has a lot of experience giving us the latest dangerous creature, and he doesn't do anything different here.Not only do we have a giant sea creature, but it comes with an interesting story about Greek mythology and a Snidely Whiplash character (Jack Scalia) that plans to steal the treasure and kill everyone. You already know how he ends up.I was most interested in having some long-held beliefs dispelled in this movie. I was always under the impression that large breasts and IQ were inversely proportional, especially if the large breasts came with blonde hair. I was wrong. We see here two large-breasted blonde's doing scientific research with sophisticated equipment. Only one of them - the student intern (Kristi Angus) - spends a lot of her time attached to the closest hunk (Cory Monteith). The scientist, Victoria Pratt from "Mutant X", is interested in proving her theory, so the interested hunk (Charlie O'Connell - Cruel Intentions) will just have to wait until the mission is over.I only tuned into this to see Christa Campbell, who managed to get eaten without saying a line.

everchanging02-1 Kraken is an interesting film about a giant squid that links the monster's murderous rampage to a Greek myth. This provides for a rather solid story/background, despite the common problems the movie shares with other made-for-TV flicks. I had three main problems with the movie. First was how Ray seemed too easily accepted as part of Nicole's crew. Second was the pig-like squealing of the squid. The last point has to do with the end and might ruin the story; but Ray's shooting is what's in question. The CGI of the squid alone was pretty good, except for some scenes. Mix the squid with live-action and it gets fairly cheesy, but it's not bad for made-for-TV. All-in-all, an okay movie if the premise interests you.
