Reaction: The Creature series has never been one that sets the box office on fire, and this film is no different. However, all four films now have earned a profit at the box office. There is clearly a loyal and consistent fan base for Ben Collins’ creature features, so as long as he wants to keep writing them and that fan base keeps showing up, we’ll keep producing them.
"The film benefits greatly from the chemistry between Amber Heard and Miles Teller in the lead role, but I can't help but feel that the film was more exposition than an actual plot. Julie seemed more interested in the nature of Heard’s creature than with using that creature in a story." - Madison Bennett, Vanity Fair
"Ben Collins clearly is fond of delivering various aquatic creatures to the big screen, and he has more hits than misses in that department, but I'd have to call this one a slight miss. While it had an interesting and alluring creature in the form of Amber Heard, I couldn't help but notice the film's lack of urgency and stakes." - Jeremy Raren, RottenTomatoes.com
"The film may not have much in the way of a plot or story, but Miles Teller and Amber Heard deliver solid performances in the lead roles. Heard especially shines, giving a sexy and mysterious performance." - Josh Manning, NY Daily News
Rated R for sexuality/nudity, frightening images and violence
