Review of The Shallows (2016) by Tom T — 29 Apr 2017
There is a reason why some films receive high marks from critics, and low ratings from filmgoers. Critics love character pieces. They also give extra points for terrific performances, which Lively does here.
Audiences want something to deliver on their expectations... this is a slow drawn out piece of work that would have benefited from being cut to a shorter running time. The end, while providing closure, feels tacked on.
