"Deep Blue Sea."

Saw it on telly last night, hadn't seen it before. Tried to be Jaws, but didn't manage it.

It was ok, nothing special. Special effects are bloody awful, I think FM could do better with a copy of paint. It blatantly left itself open for a sequel, suprised they haven't released one yet, to be honest.

It was ok for a couple of hours of entertainment, nothing too special. Jaws was scary, this wasn't. This had a couple of jumpy moments in, and that was it.
It wasn't completely cliched, as the woman died and the "hard bloke" made it.

It certainly had the surprise factor but that scene was stupid

How did the shark manage to do it?

" I think I'll just jump out the hole in water in the hope a famous actor will be there "

As MWA said, it was really funny at the end. Good old fashioned laugh when the woman who just helped save them got munched

It was crap

They should have at least tried to use some animatronic sharks.

I thought that it paid homage to Jaws in the sequence of deaths of the sharks: blown up, electrocuted, blown up, harpooned. Just like the 4 films....

Harpooned?

It's rammed with a boat!

The women was a chump, or as it turns out chum. I'm glad she was chomped.

Yeah harpooning it with the long pointy bit at the front and the actor who shot the shark was very wooden in DBS. Therefore I stand by my statement.

My nautical terms are lacking though.

They did, I've got the 'making of' documentary with the DVD. They used 3 types: animatronic, fully digitised and real sharks.

Spot the real ones.

What real sharks? Even when they had an "ordinary" shark in open water, it was a terriblye fake of a tiger shark. Tiger sharks don't actually have huge brown stripes....

It was trying to be serious. It was just a crap film.

So let me get this straight, if I were to attach a piece of wood to a car, and run somoene down with it, I'm not running them down with a lethal spear, I'm harpooning them?
