sonaaaneja Excluding some bad acting from the characters, the movie has a pretty good story line and is thrilling on most parts and is definitely not predictable.
kieranclark-94350 Having enjoyed the terrible Sharknado franchise for the ridiculous movie plots and ideas, I thought I would try something similar. This; however, was awful. There was a real lack of action scenes, a lack of any acting and a lot of just watching people sit in the water! There was no comedy element like in Sharknado, there was a lack of horror and a lack of an actual movie. This movie earns itself a new movie genre, bland.Based on an apparent true story where a tiger shark attacked a group, in the movie a great white shark was used, so it cannot even be put in the documentary/reconstruction category.This is the worst movie I have seen but I would only recommend this to someone who wants to learn more about floating in the ocean.
Reidal80 Great film, truly fear... The white shark was real and not a toy or animation. The acting was good, the camera manage to deliver the sense of realism and fear. The score was tense and the building suspense adequate. This movie its not even 6 in the IMDb rating... Why??? For me is the best movie from this director, even better than "Black water".So if you like survival movies like open water go for it, when you see in the movie the turtle shell eaten you know already what to expect from your legs in the open ocean... Good luck is a white!!!
daring_scholar The description I read about this movie indicated that it was supposed to be exciting, with a lovely splash of gore, yet this movie could not be any thing farther from that. The characters (and actors that play them) are stiff, and when their time does come, I felt little remorse (because of how robotic the people seemed to be). Please do not waste your time watching this movie. It is anti-climatic and the ending is anything but satisfying. I noticed it has a 5.8 on IMDb, but frankly, it deserves closer to a 3.0. Total disappointment, and a shame to all shark movies out there.The movie is based on true events, and my heart goes out to the victims of such terrible events. Yet, the execution of this supposed true story not only fails to emphasize the gravity of the horror, but completely lacks in the execution, making me think that this story should have never been told (in the form of this movie).
