this movie won't be remembered as some cinnematic masterpiece.. but i think it accomplished what it set out to do.. the idea is to put yourself in their shoes.. to appreciate what a harrowing experience that would be
no, it didn't have an over-abundance of male testosterone.. no loud, raucous soundtracks..no explosions.. no high speed chases.. no artillery/weaponry..
perhaps "the expendables" is more your speed

I can't put myself in their shoes, because I can't swim. lol!! I would have instantly have drowned or I would have never been out there to begin with. The movie sucked.

The audio is sh*t. Was it shot on home video?

The audio should never been qualified to use the DTS logo! I get better sound on my mobile phone. But what to expect from a movie that bad. 1 hour 20 minutes wasted of my life.

I watched it for the first time today and I absolutely hated it.

I liked it.
Something about being in the middle of the ocean with sharks swimming around. Scared the piss out of me at times.

I mean, I liked the sequences in the ocean with the shark. But getting to it was just so uninteresting to me.

Yeah, I get what you're saying.
It's kind of like
Blair Witch
. People look at it now, and say WTF. But it was pretty cool at the time, if you could just let yourself go and get into it.

Yeah. Maybe I'll watch it later on when I'm bored or something. Thank you for understanding.

This is a movie I didn't expect to likebut I did! It really creeped me out.
It struck me as very cheap-looking, at first. But then I got over that.
