By the way, the movie is all downhill after the boobscene (which isn't that great) until the girl drowns herself after her husband is eaten by sharks.

I haven't seen it but from what I've seen and heard...
I really have to question the "trueness" factor of this movie. They constantly show the people in the water surrounded by sharks. Sharks wouldn't gather around anything floating on the surface unless it was bleeding profusely. Which I don't think the divers were. (Opal correct me on that if I'm wrong.)
I dive myself and I have been in the water with sharks,m none of them took any notice of me or any of the other divers in the water, they just swam by like we were nothing.

Another thing, how long were those people out there?
Any idiot should know the general direction of shore when their out on the water, so they could have use their compasses(all divers are supposed to have compasses, especially if they are in open water like the movie shows), get a heading and swim in that direction till they could see the shore. They would also know to drop their weight belts in a situation like that and keep their B.C.s fully inflated.

Lastly, that would have to be an incredibly stupid boat crew to leave them there. Every boat I, or a someone else I know who dives, has ever been on, requires each person to sign a board or make some sort of mark telling the crew who is going under, so the boat won't leave untill everyone is accounted for.

This movie seems like just another movie trying to sell itself on peoples fears of what they don't understand; in this case it's sharks.

It's actually only 79 minutes, but about 60 minutes of it is ocean, so yea, you get the idea. There is no point in paying $7.50 for 30 seconds of tits. 1) Porn is free if you know what you're doing on the Internet. 2) I watched the movie because it didn't cost me.

Until I find a new part time job, movies pretty much have to be my hobby.
