OK, so if you are expecting a movie about what sharks are really like and real shark attacks, this is clearly not a movie to watch. Nor does it have that feel to it like Jaws did that any of this could really happen. I mean the movie is filled with FLYING sharks. The sharks are rather small, only about 10 feet long. No way a shark that small with attack a human in real life unless it's absolutely desperate. And baby sharks only a foot long acting like piranha? Not in real life. But hey, It's nothing compared to the fact that sharks in this movie: have radar, similar to submarines that allows them to track movements above water just as well as under are super intelligent can perform complex geometric and physics computations to plot optimal intercept course if a human (their favorite meal) somehow gets out of the water, just jump out after him as much as 6 feet up and as long as it takes really can swim at 50 miles an hour, for 20 minutes or possibly longer don't really eat but just bite repeatedly if a piece of human, like an arm, is bitten off, it's promptly spat out, so the shark is still hungry and can go after the next victim without pausing. I think if all else fails, the sharks may have been equipped with torpedoes but that's just my theory. But sharks are not the only ones who can perform miracles. A one armed guy who was just unconscious from all the blood loss manages to stab a shark in the water with one hand while been chewed on. Girls in the movie have radar too. They can miraculously locate the direction of the camera which they don't even know is there. Then they turn away from it in unison (and towards a window) take off their tops to put on bikinis.

Anyhow, this is not at all a serious movie. But it's so... so... cheesy that i think I am giving it 6/10 as being kinda a comedy. I mean a little more tweaking and they could make it into a good parody spoof of some bad shark movies.
