Great Film overall
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
View MoreThe story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
View MoreThe Search for the Ocean's Super Predator (2013) *** (out of 4)Shark expert David Riggs serves as host in this documentary, which was seen by most as part of Discovery's Shark Week. Taking place in Australia, Riggs believes that a giant Great White shark was eaten by an unknown predator with perhaps a mouth bite as wide as five feet.This documentary is pretty interesting on a number of levels but the biggest is the idea that there might be some sort of shark out there possibly as large as a whale. I'm not going to spoil any of the evidence given here since the documentary really plays out like a mystery as we're given bits of pieces of information until we build up to the ending when an object is placed in the water to try and go down 1900 feet.Of course, shark lovers want shark action and we get plenty of that here. There's some terrific footage of various outings where the Great White sharks are on full display as well as Killer Whales. Such great footage of both creatures is certainly reason alone to watch this but there's no question that the mystery is also handled well and the evidence in laid out in a nice way.
View MoreFantastic documentary exploring the possible predator of a tagged 3m Great White Shark off the South Coast of Western Australia. The hunt for the culprit takes us offshore to the Bremer Bay Canyons, across to the Neptune Islands in South Australia and onshore to a salt lake in a direct path to the canyons. Includes stunning footage of Killer Whales, multiple sub adult Great Whites interacting with one another and a massive 5m adult male that weighs an estimated 2 tonnes. The mystery is laid out for the viewers, the possible options are all explored and through a process of elimination the likely suspect is uncovered. One thing for sure though, there is plenty of scope for further investigation so keep an eye out for a sequel down the track.
