About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a fast, silly-but-tense shark survival ride in a fresh setting, with some gore and dark humor; Not for you if you need realism, polished effects, or subtle drama like The Dark.
Pros: bonkers premise; tense survival moments; gory shark attacks | Cons: uneven CGI; cheesy dialogue; predictable beats
