Rating: R Stars: Kim Spearman, Jack Parr, Alexander Arnold, Erin Mullen, Arlo Carter, Julian Sands Writer: Nick Saltrese, story by Alexander Prendergast and Nick Saltrese Director: Joachim Hedér Distributor: RLJE Films Release Date: July 26, 2024 There is no point in comparing a movie to anything it isn’t trying to be in the first place. Shark movies, therefore, generally shouldn’t be held up against, say, RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, but rather JAWS. THE LAST BREATH isn’t JAWS (not much is), but it’s decent enough. For novelty, it takes place mostly in and around the sunken wreck of the WWII […]Read On »

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Blake Lively, Oscar Jaenada, Brett Cullen, Sedona Legge Writer: Anthony Jaswinski Director: Jaume Collet-Serra Distributor: Sony/Columbia Release Date: June 24, 2016 THE SHALLOWS pits Blake Lively’s surfer, Nancy Adams, against a Great White shark that has taken up residence near a secluded beach in Mexico. No one should go to a summer shark attack movie expecting plausibility – once in a great while, something like the all-too-believable OPEN WATER comes along, but that’s the exception. It’s usually not a problem, except when the movie wants to be taken seriously on a number of levels. THE SHALLOWS aims […]Read On »

The premise of BAIT 3D is that an unexpected tidal wave smashes into a town in […]Read On »
