This is rubbish. Don't bother with it. A fail in all respects. However, as with many terrible flicks, I note that there are some very high-rating reviews by IMdB members who have viewed/reviewed only ONE or very few films. Here's one review, for example, giving a 10/10 rating, by someone who has rated ONLY this movie, no others: " The first truly epic film of the decade 11 March 2009 by jryan154 " Nonsense! Is that a kid writing? A cast member? A friend of the producers? Please, IMdB, think up some procedure to stop these idiots from posting such crap. Thank you. I advise everyone to avoid this movie. HERE's another member giving this rotten piece of crud 10/10: " pure genius sj29-17 October 2008 " Is there any hope? #

This was the worst movie i have ever seen in my entire life. The cover is pretty cool, gives a really different view of shark attacks. But the rest of the movie was bad. Real bad. The worst part was the two ''drunken'' people by the stairs, and the shark who jumped 10 meter out of the water to grab them both. It is magical how he grabbed the girl, because in the amazing special effect, i only saw the boy screaming for his live.Also the parts when the 'discovery channel' shark came to kill everybody, i was looking at the Atlantic ocean, complete with sea-gulls.And the best part of all:D : Every time the killer shark is coming, you see a swarm of tropical fish near him. Fish who only lives on 20 meters of depth. -_-.If they had put more sharks in the movie instead of thugs in black, the movie was maybe a little bit better.Even for a low budget movie it was terrible.

*Warning- Spoilers*I am not sure why I must put a spoiler disclaimer to this as there is no way to spoil the insanely predictable plot and storyline. None the less, this was a highly entertaining film. I am not even sure where to begin. The outstanding acting? The totally believable dolls pretending to be people? The shark that blows up when hit with a spear? My only complaint and definite downfall to the movie was the false advertising on the cover of the DVD. The gigantic, mutanty shark breaking through the canals of Venice never appeared in the movie. I sat through 88 minutes of this thing, just waiting, and hoping, and praying that this beast of a monster would appear, but alas no radioactive shark came to be... Stephen Baldwin is a very underrated actor. His ability to pretend that such a script is serious, as you can tell by the lack of facial movements throughout the film, shows that this man excels in his career and is almost, just almost, Oscar worthy. And even better, the girlfriend of the drunk guy is obviously a woman of great skill and I felt, was very worthy of Best Actress. I am having a difficult time finding any movie to follow this cinematic masterpiece. Due to my excitement over this film, I plan on rushing out to purchase Shark Attack 1, 2, AND 3! Much vodka should be consumed before attempting to watch this film!

From the beginning and the terrible cheap opening scenes and credits, I just knew this film was going to be awful, but I thought I would give it a chance. How wrong was I? There is a reason why Stephen Baldwin is not the most famous for acting amongst his family and if he got paid for this film then he should give his wage to charity.I noticed blips in this film from the very start. I did have a good chuckle, when Baldwin, who is underwater with breathing apparatus in his mouth which you can clearly see his lips round, still manages to talk to his fiancée via an imaginary radio without moving his lips!! Extraordinary!! Then there was the big chase in the film, which the cameras felt the need to zoom in closely to Baldwin's face to make it look like he had time to think about where to run next.The underwater fight scene near the end of the disaster movie was my favourite. This fight lasted for a good ten minutes whilst cops invaded the building in their dozens, but yet no one came up for air, but miraculously didn't drown. Must have been wearing that amazing breathing apparatus again??!! It's clear this film was done on the cheap (they used the same scene of a police officer sliding down a rope into the building 3 times in the space of 6 minutes) but it really was a poor show, no pun intended. I was expecting better and was hoping for a good thriller/horror to make me sit on edge of my seat, but unfortunately all I got was a film that would have made watching paint drying more fun.
