Most performances are good, the visual effects are surprisingly decent, and the entire experience is digested in just over an hour and a half, which is increasingly rare these days. Full review in Spanish.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 1, 2024

No Way Up not only contends with killer sharks, but also irreconcilable visions. A self-serious tone sucks all the oxygen out of what was otherwise an effective killer shark flick.

If there is one thing noticeable when reviewing the nonsense in the movies of the good Claudio Fäh, is that as a child he enjoyed all kinds of movie nonsense. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Mar 7, 2024

Trashy B-film survival thriller that to its credit shows great shark kills.

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | Mar 4, 2024

It does not seem to want to cross the finish line as strongly as it aims to, with too much predictability and impossibility, leaving the final moments feeling lackluster, No Way Up puttering to the end.

Full Review | Mar 2, 2024

No Way Up strives to shake up the shark attack sub-genre, but it ends up as a lackluster experience with a very typical storyline.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/10 | Mar 1, 2024

Although it starts with a not-bad idea, this disaster thriller is preposterously, laughably bad. It takes itself too seriously and is packed with poor acting, poor dialogue, poor continuity, and poor logic.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 1, 2024

Gets off to a solid start with a better-than-you'd-expect plane crash sequence, but the budgetary limitations and weak character work sink this "sharks on a plane" thriller.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 27, 2024

Jump in with the appropriate B-movie expectations, and you’re likely to be pleasantly surprised by its personality, thrills, and resourcefulness.

Full Review | Feb 25, 2024

I couldn’t decide if this was the worst thing I had ever watched or the best. After watching, I’ve come to the conclusion that this is peak cinema that didn’t take itself too seriously and opened the doorway for sequels where it’s a plane versus a kraken.

Full Review | Original Score: B | Feb 25, 2024

By the low standards of low-budget shark movies, this is still only barely passable.

Full Review | Original Score: C | Feb 21, 2024

You have to suspend disbelief to watch ‘No Way Up,’ but that’s not such a bad thing. It is an interesting premise and it provides effective jump scares. I just wish it had included some humor.

Full Review | Feb 20, 2024

While the characterizations and plot points sink this to the level of schmaltz, No Way Up has enough thrills and production value to make it palatable.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 20, 2024

“No Way Up” is a silly night out at the movies.

Full Review | Original Score: 6/10 | Feb 17, 2024

How can a "plane crash shark attack" movie be this sinfully dull?

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 17, 2024

There’s some innovative work in which water surges up against the camera as a shark lunges, and glimpsing just parts of these animals gives us a greater sense of their power.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 16, 2024

A delightfully wacky mash-up of disaster movie, survival tale, and shark attack thriller.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 15, 2024

No Way Up provides a dead-end of drama and suspense.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Feb 15, 2024

Bland, unimaginative and monotonous.

Full Review | Feb 15, 2024

The endeavor isn’t always static, but it definitely lacks a killer instinct when it comes to B-movie entertainment, feeling a little too slack when it comes to providing big thrills.
