Perigo no Recife

I'm gonna keep this short. Terrible acting. Like really terrible. Very poor script. Like most shark movies obviously takes inspiration from "Jaws" but it's barely the same sport.

Characters doing stupid things and saying even dumber things. When talking about sharks one of the characters actually says "It's the big ones you need to look out for".

Dismissed.

Sisters Cath and Nic with friends Jodie and Lisa have fun kayaking in the ocean. Nic is murdered by her partner and Cath is traumatized. Jodie and Lisa try to bring her back to life with another tropical vacation. They brought along younger sister Annie. The girls and local children get attacked by a great white shark.

It's another shark movie. The ladies are beautiful. There is some trauma before the shark. There is the shark. As often the case, the shark looks fine in the water, but can look bad when it comes out of the water. Worst still, it doesn't act real. Apparently, it's a battering ram and a stalker. It's the hallmark of a B-shark movie. As for the ladies, there are moments of poor judgement. It's the little things that they don't always do. It would also be reasonable to have one of the local woman join them. All in all, it's a below average shark movie.

I can honestly say I have never watched any shark film, where everyone has no interest in paddling to safety! Even down to the bailing water out of the boat to stop it sinking bit -- nothing!

There was a lot of pootling around on the water, even when they've been attacked by the shark, they just sat on the water and did nothing (other than tell it off!). Also, the journey back appeared to be 100 times longer than heading out with no land in sight...!

I was also surprised that this had 4.4/ 10, I can only surmise that the 4.4 was for the shark -- as he was the best bit, consistant, and great, and white, and even that was dodgy CGI!

Let's start off by saying that I loved the reef and I was looking forward to this one as soon as they announced it but after watching it, it was horrible. How can they do the first one so good graphics wise but in this one they tried using cheap cgi. They should have stuck with how they done the first one because it was phenomenal.

I'm not a writer nor am I a movie critic, but I do watch helluva a lot more movies, so I'm just going to share how this movie made me feel.

I've never kayaked before, and without having any actual kayaking experience, I would've been a seasoned pro next to the skill set the women in this movie were portrayed as having! I was shocked at how utterly incompetent the characters in this film were made out to be. I found myself yelling things like drop the damned bloody fish, and wtf, turn kayak back over throughout the entire movie! The sheer lack of common sense and any realistic response to the danger of being hunted by a great white shark killed this film for me (no pun intended)! If the women in this film were actual people, they'd have no business being in a kayak, let alone kayaking long stretches of open ocean. Yes, this is just a movie-a movie on how to broadcast loudly to all the sharks in a given area, hey come eat us, we're all an easy meal! Geez!
