I really wanted to like it

This movie is so frustrating and it's the little things that piss you off that ruin movie. I don't know where to start. Halfway through the movie I wanted the shark to eat them all.

So the black guy wanted to swim to the boat that they saw while jet skiing, but suddenly they're in the middle of the ocean and can't even see any see the boat or land. He doesn't even know which direction to swim AND he'd have to be an Olympic swimmer and probably still not make it.

Ok so the cell phone drops in the ocean... my phone drops in the toilet and it's history. Yet, Tom dives in the ocean to retrieve it. Even if he finds it, it's not going to work.

The main girl discovers that the problem with the motor of the jet ski is a torn hose. She puts her mcguyver hat on and figured out that she can fix it with a tube from the life jacket that's floating in the water. She swims out to it, mind you there's a shark in the water, so rather than taking the whole life jacket back to the jet ski asap, she decides to float around and take the part she needs to fix the jet ski motor. And of course the shark shows up and almost eats her. Too bad he didn't.

Then just as mcguyver has fixed the jet ski and she and Tom are jet skiing to freedom, Tom decides that he's a piece of doodoo and doesn't deserve to live, because he cheated on his girlfriend. Sounds about right. Death is vindication for cheating. So he jumps off the jet ski and offers himself to the shark. This time he eats him. So that's good. But wait out girl, his girlfriend drives the jet ski back to towards Tom to save him, but she doesn't park the jet ski right next to him, no, she stops it 10 feet away and extends her 20" arm to him. And furthermore, rather than yelling at him telling him to get his f'n arse back on the jet ski, now!!! She calmly says "you can't still make it. Come on".

And finally she's almost back to shore when our friend, the great white, comes raging towards her. Ignore the fact the he had a human buffer earlier, he still want to eat our hero. So this stupidest shark in the world tries to dart between two rocks in the water and of course because he's never seen rocks underwater before and doesn't realize his own size, he attempts to swim through the narrow path and gets lodged in between and our hero gets the time to swim to shore.
