    Xavier Gens co-wrote and directed the French film Under Paris (French: Sous la Seine). Featuring Bérénice Bejo and Nassim Lyes. The film follows a researcher who loses a number of her crew after a shark attack while doing tests. Years later, using a monitoring device, the shark has been located in Paris's Seine River, having grown three times larger. The film is not amateurish, but it does have a strong story and some thrilling sea monster action.

    The whole premise is kinda dumb - sharks in the rivers. It tries to Jaws but doesn't get there.

    I didn’t like it at all. Firstly I didn’t like the mayor of Paris, she was a total b. and she only cared for the triathlon not to be cancelled and not for the swimmers life that are in jeopardy.

    Way over the top of you can get through the early cheesy parts. Amazing FX and ridiculous fun. Fabulous ending

    There have been only two good shark movies, Jaws and the Shallows. This movie is called Under Paris. *** dramatic pause *** Getting past the opening teaser takes a forgiving movie-goer, because we watch our protagonist survive and impossible situation. She runs out of breath while screaming underwater, her ears burst under sea pressure, and yet she swims to the surface. The movie doesn't get any better after that.

    The Movie is very boring and loses its charm due to the actresses overreacting nature. It is a very bad story

    Netflix's 'Under Paris' sees the shark genre return to prominence. SYNOPSIS: 'To save Paris from a bloodbath, a grieving scientist is forced to face her tragic past when a giant shark appears in the Seine.' A Gallic entry into the shark attack genre of films wasn't on my to watch list for 2024 but here we are and this film is lots of bloody fun. 'Under Paris' positions itself in a welcome middle ground, knowing when to flirt with humor and when to play on the desperation and horror of a shark attack. You can't really fault it for its delivery. Storywise it's a bit wobbly, if not ridiculous at times, but some of this could be what's lost in translation. But within this genre sometimes the dafter things become the better the film is. It’s dopey but not stupid, outlandish but not silly, violent but not gratuitous, and serious but not so serious that it isn’t great fun. I didn't need the environmental subtext though. It's a distraction. An excellent shark movie. 7/10

    The acting was bad, every decision made in the movie was outragesly bad and effects were goofy.

    The dubbing plus awful acting make the plots in adult films seem complex and full of character deveopment. I signed up for a rotten tomatoes accout just to make the review for this movie. I want my 1hr and 43min back.

    Boring, does not explain anything, People do real stupid stuff to justify more Blood (one girl gets eaten in the middle of the water, 50 ppl are out of the water, the girl gets eaten and suddenly every one else just falls in). The mayor serves the same purpose, and the ending (tsunami or what ever) does not even make sense. People are hating this film for a good reason, movie critics are stupid, they prove that when they recomend this film. I hope it doesnt get a sequel. Stupid movie, with stupid characters, Made for stupid People who recomend it and stupid People who watch it because its trendy and it ends up being #1 viewed film.
