It's a stupid shark movie, what did you expect!?!

When a deep sea expedition unleashes a prehistoric killer mega shark, a team of divers has use their wits and skill to outwit the mega beast to survive. The animal is cunning and ferocious, so it will take all the crew has got in order to make it through.

Not sure what people were expecting. Certainly not Jaws or a classic horror movie. More like a cheesy Godzilla movie in the water. Some of it was implausible, cheesy or stupid dialogue. The CGI wasn't bad mostly, but a few parts felt very fake.

I'm sure my expectations were low based on what I heard beforehand; however, don't get me started on comparing movies to books. That is a lost cause.

Kudos

I never was really a huge fan of Jaws by steven spielberg but now I finally see it's importance as a film. It's not necessarily about the shark it's more a human behaviour study. It shows a towns ignorance, self entitlement and selfishness during a pandemic. How politicians cover up dangerous problems just for their own financial gain regardless of the casualties and public safety and how some people take advantage of a crisis to benefit themselves. If anything it's even more relevant today with the spread of covid than it ever was and my issues with it were simply I was far to young to understand it's deeper meanings. It's a mighty fine first film for a director that's for sure and worthy of all it's praise.
