A unique take on well known shark films and really preys on fears of open water and the unknown.

The idea is terrifying. The movie…not so much.

Practical and realistic sold as a shark movie but more of a wilderness survival

Avoid this film for a long time, but it actually isn’t too bad. 127 Hours meets jaws. A true story that will leave you avoiding the ocean.

I’ve tried to watch this multiple times, but the film just doesn’t execute its premise as well as it should.

the most boring and tedious 80 minute movie of all time

Considering this is a low-budget independent movie, this is really good.

One hell of a premise, really tense and clever. Everything feels a little cheap and it’s not fantastic or anything, but worth a watch

An unforgettable movie-watching experience. Nerve-wracking and anxiety-inducing. And the low quality digital image made it feel so real

Cheap but not trash. A great example for a good found footage movie.
