    Lifetime caliber

    Don't waste your. Time unless. You're a fan of lifetime and hallmark movies.

    Acting is horrible.

    The music behind the scenes and the music montages will turn your stomach.

    It starts off bad, then gets worse.

    Poorly written, badly acted and amateurishly directed , I can't believe I wasted $8 on PPV.

    I have to write 600. Characters. And. There's. Nothing. More. To. Say.

    Just drags on with music and boring writing. You'll be rooting for the shark. ................... Then there's the fake laughing, fake friends, fake shark, fake anger....... ..............................................................................................."......................................................................................................

    Skip Maneater

    It doesn't get much more unrealistic than this movie. There were absolutely no attempts made to make the shark and shark attacks look real, and one of the main characters blatantly flirts with a taken man right in front of his significant other. This is essentially a cheesy slasher film with a shark replacing a human serial killer. At one point, just like in your typical horror movie, two people go off alone for obviously scandalous reasons and somehow their friends don't notice they're missing right away. And of course one of these people were explicitly told not to go in the water, but of course they do.

    Sack the sound editor!

    Was this a movie, or a cinematic music video?

    The music was TOO LOUD! I couldn't hear a word the actors were saying, because all I could hear was some Mariah Carey wannabe, belting out vocals loud enough to wake the dead!

    Even when there was no singing, the music in the background was unbelievably loud, drowning out everything.

    For obvious reasons, turning the volume up made it worse. I couldn't get passed the 10-minute mark for this exact reason. I don't feel too bad though, as the film looked gash anyway...and after reading reviews on here, it's clear I dodged a bullet!

    In summary: THE. MUSIC. WAS. TOO. LOUD.

    A slow and boring shark

    Expect stupid characters, expect harmful effects, expect laughably stupid moments, and expect them to do dumb stuff. Maneater (2022) is another example of bad shark movies that go to on demand or just straight to digital.

    The characters are of course idiots and make dumb decisions, also the acting is standard. The acting is bad, and it has bad lines of dialogue, but the acting is still boring to watch.

    The plot of the movie is the same as other bad straight to digital shark movies, having people do an activity on or around the water, a shark attacks, and they must survive. Which is just repetitive to watch.

    The shark has bad CGI and clearly looks fake. Especially whenever the shark attacks and you cannot tell what is happening all you see is blood and bubbles for a couple minutes, while also having the movie feel slow for no reason.

    I do not recommend watching this, if you want a good shark movie to watch then watch Jaws (1975) or The Shallows (2016) they will give a better movie experience.

    Blueberry Pancakes...

    This movies is bad in so many ways it is difficult to pinpoint any one thing. The script was bad writing and the actors were bad enough to perfectly deliver the poorly written script. As far as the graphics in the movie, they are awful. The shark shots look like something from the best technology in the 80s. So many glaring errors like the volume of blood from an attack. The human body holds at most around 1.5 gallons of blood. On initial bites there were gallons spilled and yet people lived for a bit afterwards. Forget the fact that you die from just the loss of 1/2 to 2/3rds. These folks would have been gone before they even knew what was happening.

    There were no 'good' actors in this and Trace Adkins wasn't the worst, but he tried. The man just isn't an actor. It is just uncomfortable to watch him try. There are some very cheesy lines in this film, blueberry pancakes is just one.

      The movie is so cheap and low budget they have the raft brand names covered with black tape.
    • Goofs
      In the final showdown, Trace Adkins fires more than 20 shots from a pump action shotgun without ever reloading. The final point where he could have conceivably reloaded is followed by eleven rapid fire blasts.
