The Requin

More a survival-at-sea drama than a people-versus-sharks thriller, but satisfying all the same.

The Requin may not be the best showcase for Kiet's talent after Furie, his thrilling 2019 Vietnamese martial arts drama, but it's consistently intriguing, which makes up for other glaring deficiencies.

The cheesy (and at times cringe-worthy) melodrama never remotely feels authentic. And the ludicrous character blunders and the laughably bad CGI make the whole man-versus-nature elements impossible to buy.

I think Alicia Silverstone might deserve both a Razzie and an Oscar for this performance

This movie has about 4% Shark

The choice to make the film more about them as a couple is made all the more confusing when it reveals its climactic lunacy, presenting laughable CGI thats at odds with the type of performance Silverstone is allowing the film

A somewhat cheap-looking, survival-at-sea melodrama not destined to be an especially memorable shark movie.

I wish I could get back the 90 or so minutes I lost from watching this movie. In a sea filled with great shark movies, THE REQUIN is the least jaw-some of all.

Formulaic, tediously paced and utterly disappointing survival story.

Its good seeing Silverstone back in a lead role, even if she gives more than the material deserves.
