The Devil’s Mouth Review: Prime Video’s Shark Thriller Dives into Complex Friendships

Amazon’s new shark movie, The Devil’s Mouth, goes beyond typical creature-feature thrills by exploring a strained, codependent friendship between best friends Max and Sara. Set against a vacation in Thailand, the tension simmering between the two women—along with their companions—takes center stage long before a bull shark is unleashed into a freshwater tunnel system. The film uses the shark attacks as a backdrop to probe the toxic dynamics of their relationship, with Sara and Max’s bond proving to be the most compelling element.
