Review of The Shallows (2016) by Bfoore90 — 24 Jun 2016
Probably the best Shark movie I've seen since Jaws. While its obviously not as good as Jaws, its still probably the best Shark/survival movie I've seen in a very long time. Led by a surprising performance by Blake Lively as she carries this entire movie and is able to act without speaking, which is insanely hard to do.
In the midst of all this chaos, you care about her and you want her character to survive. The movie is only 85 minutes in length and it makes the most of it with a pretty good handful of thrills and jumps that keep you entertained despite a so/so script.
The ending on the other hand I felt was somewhat anti-climatic and lacked emotion and satisfaction.
