    did you think jaws was too exciting? were there too much action in deep blue sea? was open water too real? do you like old soap operas? if all this is true this movie might be something you'd like to watch. I, myself, thought the movie was terrible. Predictable, unreal scenarios,...( read more) bad actors playing characters who all felt very untrue. to rip off certain parts of the jaws soundtrack did not make it better. if you decide to watch it, good luck staying awake to complete watching all the hours of this mess ;)

    have seen better ie deep blue sea and the least the sharks where better in that than in this

    a lot like jaws, and the swarm of sharks is really not that well done but i really liked this one, it had some real backgrounds to the way the shark was acting, if you don't mind sharks and mean ones then give this a goo, not as good as jaws but okay

    I love watching John Schneider movies & Shark movies too. This wasa great movie. You should check it out. A ruthless resort developer poisons the waters off a California fishing village to trick the locals into selling their land, but one fisherman Daniel Wilder (John Schneider )...( read more) , faimly and his brother isn?t biting. While he makes their life hell, hundreds of mutated sharks begin preying on the townsfolk. The acting here is pretty good & a great performance.

    Aaargh! Shark Swarm. What can I say. Daryl Hannah looks like she is retaining water. A flock of pelicans flying with the sound of seagulls. 12 people eaten by sharks, including three school kids and nobody in the town is batting an eyelid. The suspense is so watered down that Jaw...( read more)s would die with embarrassment. Don't bother with this one!!!

    Good acting, Bad story! Too much talk talk and less action made the movie boring.! It was kinda like Jaws and Spring-Break Shark Attack with Chad Michael Murray!

    but still it gets a 4/10 for good action!

    Fine, but shocking killer shark long TV movie in the tradition of Jaws. John Schneider and Daryl Hannah did a wonderful job with the material that they were given. And I thought that Armand Assante did a great job as the bad guy in the movie, F. Murray Abraham didn't have ...( read more)enough screen time in this.
    There's a frequent amount of attacks is really great, giving it a lot of action that certainly works. But the last flaw in here is the terrible CGI for the sharks. They abandon the few relatively decent-looking real sharks in here to go for a constant series of incredibly badly done and fake-looking CGI sharks, which has nothing to do at all with being realistic, is easily spotted in the sequences for doing so and just makes the film look even cheaper.
