The movie 'goes overboard' when Redford fights the giant squid
All suspension of disbelief lost. I was thinking "What's next, mermaids?"
shareWith the sharks coming in and rescuing him? This was a key moment in the film. As poetic as it was moving, the scene serves as powerful commentary on modern society -- on what we perceive as "evil" versus what evil really is: squishy things. The film is about breasts and men's slavery to them, but I don't think a lot of people really got it.

With the sharks coming in and rescuing him?
Well, that part was cool; it was a good twist after building them up as the bad guys. Plus, I was pretty touched when the main shark and Redford shared a knowing look, and he nodded at it before it returned to the depths. But the giant squid was just too out there for me.

We do agree on the squid being too much. But for me, personally, the buddy-sharks redeemed the film; and indeed, that moment they shared will stick with me for decades to come.
