Just so...so bad

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Blistering performances.

I don't mind seeing a man torn apart by sharks, but it strains my credulity when the sharks ROAR while they do it. The 8 kidnapped victims all have their hands locked in chains, but the chains are so loosely wrapped it shouldn't take them more than two minutes to get loose.And that's the biggest problem with this movie, and why I stopped watching it after 15 minutes: whoever thought this movie was worth the cost of making it wasn't too tightly wrapped, either.This review system requires me to write at least ten lines of text; sadly, the movie isn't even worth that much of a review.

Another entry by The Asylum so you all know what that means, trash. But I gave it a go due the director (Christopher Ray) being the son of Fred Olen Ray. Maybe that should ring a bell too, Fred's flicks aren't that great too but it has it followers. Still, you know that the Asylum do uses a lot of CGI and not the kind that will win an Oscar.The story itself doesn't make any sense and the acting is far below zero. Just look at the opening sequence. A shark in a swimming pool, really, the pool isn't that big at all but still the shark looks big. From there on it's a bit of a Saw story. try to survive a battle with all kind of sharks. All CGI and sometimes it's okay but most of it all it looks ridiculous. There's no blood to mention. Oh sure, the sharks do bite but the fight between humans and sharks isn't believable at all. A lot of clichés all over the flick, but no suspense at all or even horror. Clocking in at 90 minutes it surely felt like a week, a shark week;Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 1/5 Story 2/5 Coledy 0/5

To be fair, I only got to see the last 40 minutes, but that was enough to make this one of the absolute WORST movies I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot of really stinky movies, mostly by Asylum, but all the classic stinkers too like Manos).Patrick Bergin and Yancy Butler (who seems to have a nervous eye flutter) play a psycho couple who live in a giant mansion but spend most of their time in what appears to be a broom closet decked out with some lap tops and not-so-big video screens. They are forcing some none-too-bright people to make their way through deadly shark encounters which all look like they can be easily be avoided by simply NOT GOING WHERE THE SHARKS ARE.There's also some land mines on a beach that are easily seen and can be outrun once they start exploding but are handy for carrying with you in case you have to hang onto a stalagmite while fending off a really hideous CG shark.Calling the acting wooden is an insult to wood. The music is incessantly wrong for the "action" and the direction and editing are hilarious (lots of scenes of people walking and emoting for no apparent reason).But it is a hoot to make fun of while you're watching it. I hope that all involved get better at what they're doing or find other lines of work.

I recorded this movie on the "mighty" scyfy channel. I should have known better. I was done by the first commercial. Stupid plot, the bad ass female girlfriend of the villain is ugly and old. The villain is a moron but I guess rich.Two month old shark pups of any species are NOT flesh eaters except for fish. Almost every shark species that eats prey that are not fish do so after getting to a larger size. The great white doesn't start eating pinnipeds until growing to about ten-twelve feet. It is way too dangerous for the smaller size sharks to attempt taking on such larger size prey. The special effects are not very impressive and the acting is lame.
