But again, the movie knows what it is, and as a short shark thriller appealing solely to our primal fear, it gets the job done and then some. Now I’m not saying The Shallows is as good a movie as Jaws, because it certainly isn’t. There are some far-fetched scenes, sure, but Jaws had them as well and it’s hailed as a classic. And it’s interesting to see how she follows its patterns and observes its behavior, allowing her to act accordingly without being trapped. This thing is huge, like the Jaws’ shark’s father huge. For the majority of the film Lively is terrified and fighting for survival against a deadly shark. It’s mostly a reactionary role – not much dialogue aside from some early establishing conversations to develop her character. What The Shallows does so well is establish this sense of isolation and hopelessness for our main character, and her situation of being so close yet so far from safety.īlake Lively is great in this role. This woman is stranded only a couple hundred yards from the shore, close enough to potentially shout for help. However as the title suggests, this doesn’t take place in the middle of the ocean. Its only purpose is to give you a thrill-ride during that time an adrenaline rush based on an ubiquitous fear among humans: being stranded in the ocean with a shark. It’s barely 90 minutes long, has a small cast, and only one location. The Shallows knows exactly what it is, and that’s the best praise I can give it. Nifty, well-crafted shark thriller boasting a strong lead performance by Blake Lively.
But I still recommend it, because it’s worth. In fact, this looks like a sea version of that film. Slightly missed to be a great film in the line of ‘127 Hours’. A good start, neatly maintained mid part, but a below par conclusion, that’s what I think about the film. It was a limited cast film and nearly the whole film takes place very close to the shore. The entire film was edgy, I think very nicely written screenplay. In the initial part, she was very sexy, but once the narration shifted its focus on surfing and later shark attack, everything changed. Great location, and Blake Lively was unbelievably awesome. But the final battle ruined overall favour I’m going to give to it, what I thought this film deserved. In fact, except the final few minutes, since the shark got pumped up, I had no issue and the best shark attack film. It was not right, other than that, I definitely enjoyed the film. I am not supporting the shark here, I’m just talking about its behaviour. Thanks to the nature television networks and what I saw in this film was very disappointing if you love wild animals. I am a huge animal fan, but I have never seen a live shark in my life and that does not mean I don’t know anything about them. Then it becomes the common film gimmick when the animal was obsessed to kill its target at any cost. The portrayal of shark was very natural, until the last half an hour. In the end, I was little disappointed, because of the shark. Looked so real, so I thought it might end up top among its similar theme. But this was something very neatly done, I mean for the most of the parts. I’m sure you have seen shark attack films like ‘Jaws’, ‘Deep Blue Sea’ et cetera, and yep this another one to add to that collection. **Very close to the shore, yet too far and dangerous to attempt.** Smart Tags: #shark_attack #shark #great_white_shark #trapped #woman_in_jeopardy #killer_shark #talking_to_a_bird #female_protagonist #beach #survival #surfer #seagull #cell_phone #fight_with_shark #surfing #sea #alone_against_the_odds #jellyfish #buoy #surfer_girl #creature_feature Though she is stranded only 200 yards from shore, survival proves to be the ultimate test of wills, requiring all of Nancy’s ingenuity, resourcefulness, and fortitude.
