The verdict

Kraken is a middling no film — fine for a one-time watch but unlikely to stay with you. It carries a 6.4/10 on TMDB across 237 ratings, which puts it around the middle of the pack. It's a tight 94-minute watch — easy to fit into a busy night. It's in theatres in Germany now — best caught on the big screen.

Story

A marine biologist is doing research on a fish farm when she encounters several strange occurrences. Along with the brutal deaths of two teenagers, all signs point to the deep fjord; can there be more to the depths than the eye can see?
