Solid acting and tense
Rating: 7/10
Alright, so this is never going to win any Oscars, yet it was very
entertaining.
The character development was good, I actually cared for each person,
which for me is a great indicator. If you can pull that off, it's got a
bit of quality right there. Nothing felt fake or over/under done. The
shark shots were real, no fake plastic models to be found! The movie
was often pretty tense, i found myself literally on the edge of my
couch. It was nice to hear the Aussie accents and it didn't feel
"americanised" in any way. A great little movie with dedicated actors
and a solid, scary story! Well done.
