It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

OK, not a real fan of present day shark mania movies (Atomic Shark, Ice Shark and so on)but this has something going for it, good acting, good cinematography,good script.I think of it as a cross platform movie, meaning it's a cross between Stephen King's The Mist and Peter Benchley's Jaws. An interesting angle of horror and tension and of course the antagonist...Mr Shark.visual effects well above par for a "low budget" movie. the people behind the making of the movie definitely have talent, as do the actors.If you are stuck for a really good movie, and have watched the cream of them...then sit back and have a good night in with popcorn and enjoy.

A year after losing his friend to a shark attack, "Josh" (Xavier Samuel) calls off his engagement to his friend's sister and decides to live alone in Australia for awhile. Meanwhile his ex-fiancé, "Tina" (Shari Vinson) manages to get on with her life and eventually gets another boyfriend. Then a year after the shark attack she comes back to Australia with her new boyfriend and while she is in the same shopping mall as Josh a huge tsunami puts most of it underwater. Even worse, two very large great white sharks with voracious appetites are also trapped in the same shopping mall with the few survivors who are left. Now rather than reveal any more of this movie and risk spoiling it for those who haven't seen it I will just say that this turned out to be a pretty good "shark movie" for the most part. Admittedly, the special effects were somewhat hit-or-miss and the ending was a bit unrealistic but other than that it was quite enjoyable. The acting was satisfactory and the suspense kept me interested from start to finish. Likewise, having several pretty actresses like Alice Parkinson (as "Naomi"), Phoebe Tonkin ("Jaimie"), Cariba Heine ("Heather") and the aforementioned Shari Vinson certainly didn't hurt either. In any case, while all too many movies of this type border on the ridiculous this particular film seems to be a rare exception to the rule and I have rated it accordingly. Above average.

This bloody Australian production is completely terrible and should be avoided. It simply is too graphic in its depiction of dismemberment and slaughter. The wanton mayhem is just unholy in its utter intensity and there are uncountable scenes of human beings chomped in half or torn limb from limb. This is completely unacceptable. I recall seeing Jaws at the theater when it was first released and how everyone screamed when a single head floated into view. It was breathtakingly horrible. In this film, that is done over and over only with decomposing flesh and body parts galore. That we as audiences are so desensitized to such horrors today is certainly something that should be of deep concern both morally and spiritually.

Mixed bag, but better than expected.Almost switched off at first sight of the daft CGI shark, but we stuck with it.So a group of conflicted characters is trapped in a shop with a couple of man-eating sharks driven in by a tsunami. As the characters try to figure out an escape their conflicts are resolved, and they co-operate to save the day.The characters are so-so, and too many of them survive. The idea of the lower level car park not filling up with water is wrong. And I think they should have had one shark down below, with the water upstairs filled with loads of nasty little creatures that Australia is notorious for. Or just lots of small sharks, like in Open Water.The references to Jaws were enjoyable, and the time passed OK.
