It does grip you (when you are eventually introduced to the shark) (3 more)
Blake Lively does well to pull off the role as the movie's almost exclusive focus
Some beautifully shot scenes
You genrerally share the fear. It's a simple premise - stuck in the ocean with a big shark!
The first part of the movie exists to develop Lively's character but takes far too long (5 more)
Endless, unnecessary shots of Lively's 'rear end' cheapens the movie in its early stages
You get a LOT of blood from from a leg wound
Nothing new here - feels like an amalgamation of a few other better known movies
Some plot holes
That electronic music!

What a strange tale
I guess kind of a combination of Weekend at Bernie's, Heavenly Creatures and Castaway, Swiss Army Man tells the take of a desperate man at the end of his rope until a new friend washes up on shore. The two become acquainted quickly and decide to have an adventure together.
This film falls right into my favorite genre of weird and vague, so I really enjoyed it. You have never seen anything like this film and it is entertaining throughout.
Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe make a great screen couple and you really enjoy watching them together.
Still not sure how I feel about the ending though.
