The Shallows: Gefahr aus der Tiefe (2016)

The Shallows: Gefahr aus der Tiefe: Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra. With Blake Lively, Óscar Jaenada, Angelo Josue Lozano Corzo, Joseph Salas. A mere 200 yards from shore, surfer Nancy is attacked by a great white shark, with her short journey to safety becoming the ultimate contest of wills.

“The movie is very particular in setting up perimeters and rules. And making it as believable as possible, that in a modern time like this, someone would not be able to call for help (apart from the usual u0026quot;no serviceu0026quot; kind of cheat other movies do when it comes to Cell Phones). And if you buy into it, it works.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThereu0026#39;s also the question why Livelys character goes there in the first place. Well even that is explained, so there is no doubt about motive too. What never is explained though, is not where the Shark came from or why it got there, but how itu0026#39;s possible that itu0026#39;s so bloodthirsty! Weu0026#39;re talking Jason Vorhees or any other Slasher movie kind of mad. Maybe even more mad than that.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd while you could easily go, well itu0026#39;s a movie, it kind of breaks itu0026#39;s own rules there. Because everything seems logical (explaining mentioned), even the character and her ability to deal with (graphic) wounds … but not the shark, who is really a monster if you come to think of it. But if you donu0026#39;t care about internal logic, like the view (no pun intended) and the thrill of it, you will have a good (scary) time watching this!”
