Shark Waters

Watch it if you don't have anything else to watch. It is lame, entertaining with less kill than would have liked, there needed at least forty two girls in the movie and thirty one men and seventy nine elderly in a big yacht. Only then, it would have been more entertaining and more believable.

The visual effects are horrendous, the sharks aren't.

I fairly certain this film was directed by the dead shark from Jaws!

Filmed on a Nokia 3310 with a script supplied by a dyslexic cat this is possibly the worst film I've ever had the misfortune of watching. Sadly I stuck with it until the end just to see how woeful the ending was. I made that sacrifice for you people so you don't need to. The interaction between the cast feels as though they recorded their lines on different days in different countries. The first 2 characters to die probably fed themselves to the sharks rather than live with the shame of having been cast in this total shocker.

I have to admit that I am sucker for shark movies, despite the fact that 95% of all shark movies are questionable and dubious movies at best. But I still opt to give a shark movie the benefit of the doubt. And such it was with the 2022 movie "Shark Waters".

And I had never heard about writer M. L. Miller's "Shark Waters" movie before getting the chance to watch it. And seeing that dreaded logo pop up on the screen, you know which one I am talking about, The Asylum, I have to admit that my expectations went down a couple of notches for the movie. Yet, I still opted to watch it.

Director Jadon Cal didn't exactly deliver an innovating shark movie. If anything, then "Shark Waters" was a pretty generic movie at best, even for a shark movie. But hey, at least it had sharks. Well, a combination of dubious CGI sharks and some stock footage of sharks. Again, something that is a common occurrence in shark movies, isn't it?

The dialogue in "Shark Waters" was rather shoddy, and there were some genuinely toe-curling moments throughout the 85 minutes that the movie ran for.

The acting performances in "Shark Waters" were fair enough. Some questionable performances, but also some adequate performances. But truth be told, a movie such as this would be astounding if it had stellar performances.

I mentioned the poorly animated CGI sharks, and mix that with some equally poorly animated blood effects in the water, and you know what you're in for when you sit down to watch "Shark Waters".

My rating of "Shark Waters" lands on a three out of ten stars.

Thus is a C- at best movie. Rented it based on a 7.9 review. It plays more like an amateur film. Shark scenes are obviously computer generated. There is no real plot and what us there is beyond predictable. Whoever gave this a 7.9 must have done it as a joke. The scenes jump without connection. It's so bad it's almost comedic. The characters never seem to learn from one mistake to the next. Really, don't waste your money or time on this movie. People go out in a small rubber dingy to rescue the guys daughter when they know there are multiple sharks attacking. They call coast guard as an emergency and are put on hold. A helicopter with their coordinates can't find them. They are resting in a sand bar and still get attacked. A girl gets bit abd they wrap it but later when they stand her up the wrap isn't there. They also tell her to keep weight off her leg and she does it on the wrong leg!

First off why would the show control center sending a message on all open channels when they don't hear anything. Two, how does the radio not work. The shark hit the propeller. Didn't know the whole electronic system was in the propeller. The acting was like wtf. The boyfriend to one of the characters was annoying was F and I couldn't wait for him to die. They finally realized they had a radio almost close to the end of the movie. A person got bit by a shark and she's acting like her whole entire leg was torn off by in reality it's a light bit at best, and just so much more stupid stuff. Like I stupid movies but this was beyond that smh.
