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.

The 40ft Tiger Shark in the pen that the shark-wrangler was riding on at the beginning of the film was animatronic. It weighed something crazy like 3 tons, and they had a great deal of trouble stopping it once it got going :)

I've watched the movie a couple of times and still have trouble working out which ones are the real ones.

Probably because any real sharks ended up in the deleted scenes.

Seriously, any real sharks involved were probably just used to help aid the animators for the CGI sharks.

All sharks are clever anyway, why the hell do we want to make them more clever.

They are the greatest predators in the world and I hope one of them attacks Bush.

Clever enough to detect 1 part blood in one million parts water, but when they look up, they can't tell a seal from a surfboard.

Yes, genius creatures.

Clever enough to sense blood within a 4 mile radius, Also, meat was attached to that surfboard (if you are talking about the same famous clip I am).

My point is, if a human being had the same perceptory capabilities that a shark has, we'd be far more deadly.

Damn right. Human kind was better off before we had developed language and communication.

Sharks rule because they are savage, each for their own.
