Reviews

leeherring-13484 This is quite possibly the worst ever film I have seen. Second only to the Blair witch project.

mkivtt I wanted to like this movie, but it's just so stupid I can't.I love the beautiful bay and the long shots showing how pretty it is. But problem 1: where are the waves? There aren't any! It's clear that the actual surfing shots were filmed elsewhere. Come on... you don't surf on a beach with no waves. Sigh.Other problems: 2. A shark that size bites you, and all you have is a tiny nick in your leg? 3. There's a juicy fat whale carcass right there, but the shark is only interested in bony human beings? 4. That whale carcass appeared out of nowhere? She's been surfing there all day, and suddenly turns her head and it's magically 60 feet away? 5. Why would you try to eat a crab after just a few hours? Just nonsensical. 6. The CGI dolphins were quite bad. But not as bad as the fake wound on her leg. I've seen 1980 horror movies with better blood... and they had a $500 budget. 7. The water is clearly shallow, as you can see in the aerial shots. Yet at the end when she sinks to the bottom, it's suddenly 60+ feet deep?! 8. Holding on to that chain would've ruptured her eardrums in seconds because she wasn't equalizing. 9. That shark is dumb enough to swim full force into the bottom of the ocean? 10. Why is there a buoy there, of all places? 11. Am I supposed to believe a beach this nice is right next to Tijuana, within walking distance of drunks, yet there's nobody there, no garbage, nothing? 12. Something tells me you wouldn't have a 4G connection on that beach to stream video on your phone.Sigh. It's a shot, and it's a miss! Wasted opportunity. Watch a re-run of Jaws instead.

darthdrane Tense and gripping, Jaws this is not. But despite that I found I couldn't take my eyes off it. Pretty darned good stuff.

Floated2 The Shallows is a relatively simply shark stranded thriller with the trailers showing exactly the type of film it is. This is a film which showcases Blake Lively as a strong leading actress and the film made a profit within its box office. Most criticism comes from the fact that it may seem unrealistic at times but overall the film does a decent job at keeping those on the edge of the seat, while maintaining and engaging and entertaining plot. The cgi is well done and keeps it simply throughout the film. The Shallows has a relatively slow start but within minutes has a quick build up to the point where we see Blake stranded by the rock. What was difficult in reasoning is how long she was on the rock with no food but yet seemed to have enough energy in swimming back and forth. Also as of note she meets a small seagull which steals the show in the end.Overall, the Shallows is a small simple film with a simple intention at entertaining and in does the job. Recommend to those whom enjoy this sort of films. Nothing to take too serious but relax.
