The moment the girls got trapped down with the sharks luring around it was hard to watch for me coz my anxiety levels hit top! I watch tons if horror movies Like Martyrs or Serbian film this is the Only movie that I had to take some breaths by hitting pause! It was really that intense. But as a horror fan I'm going to watch it again n again! Hope they release it at theaters soon coz it IS sooo much better than overrated Shallows which was only OK.
shareHard to sit through, I'd say. I found it boring.

Agreed.
shareMaybe he was distracted by the poor writing, acting and terrible shark CGI?
Whereas Evil Dead had top notch writing, acting and effects (practical or otherwise)
If you think the CGI was terrible then i have no idea what you think is good CGI - especially for an OBVIOUS low budget shark flick
If it was all practical effects - you'd be saying it looked too fake for a 2016 film

Not at all, the only time i thought it was questionable/cartoonish was when Lisa was lighting the final flare near the end and the three sharks were surrounding them
the scene when it dragged Lisa from the hands of one of the guys on the boat was amazingly done - the shark looked as real as it could be
the CGI wasn't Sharknado levels of bad or all of the those other ridiculous SyFY movies that are churned out
It was a great shark thriller - especially considering there hasn't been a great shark thriller for a very long time
If you expect Jaws levels of good - then the joke is on you
It was a decent flick - not the best, and certainly not the worst
It was 10x better than Army of Darkness - which was one of the worst movie experiences of my life

Well your DP is clearly Evil Dead - that's why i brought it up
and secondly - Army of Darkness is a 90s movie
yet there was a great shark thriller, much better than this released this year: The Shallows
shareThough, I have very limited diving experience, I will say that I too found this movie very intense. I really enjoyed the anxiety and dilemma's that was portrayed in it. Wouldn't mind seeing more movies like these.

No, you're not wrong, you're just an a$$hole!
A bit too dark for me.
Couldn't make out a lot if what was happening.
Made it to the end though.
OP, i am so terrified AND fascinated with sharks and spiders and i love to watch movies/shows/documentaries about them. that being said, some shark films make me so tensed up/stressed that i have to take a break from watching it and go do something else. that happened with this movie! lol. it's very well done. so much so that i had to take a break and come back to the film to finish it up. :)
shareSeriously, dude. This movie was so uncomfortable to sit through. I was nervous, claustrophobic, and I started getting a headache. It was like everything that could go wrong, WENT WRONG! I probably said, "You have got to be kidding me!" like 4 times! This is was really intense and pleasantly surprised by it. I think it deserves the theatrical release for sure.
I did like The Shallows as well. But I can definitely say I would much rather be in Blake's scenario, than Mandy's scenario. That was just horrible!
