The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

I'll just leave this here.

Re: The Shallows (2016, S: Blake Lively)
 

I love shark movies so I'll definitely check it out. Plus 2 hours of Blake Lively in bikini bottoms is a nice bonus!

Re: The Shallows (2016, S: Blake Lively)
 

This looks intriguing... I'd definitely rent at a minimum.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

didn't look too bad...

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Eh. Maybe if it was part of an anthology but a whole movie of her waiting while the tide rises?

Bring on Sharknado 4.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

I can think of few things scarier than being in water with hungry sharks. So I will definitely see this!

Re: The Shallows (2016, S: Blake Lively)
 

My thoughts exactly.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Damn, that was a solid trailer. I'm looking forward to seeing this quite a bit. Looks intense.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

That trailer seemed to give an awful lot away but I still plan on checking it out.

If nothing else, it'll be a good rental for a rainy day.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Hmmm..the shark and sharkbite on her leg don't match.

I'd rather fuck the shark...

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Re: The Shallows (2016, S: Blake Lively)
 

I would berry

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Finally saw the trailer - shit, that was pretty awesome. Clever use of minimal anything. The shark will be the most expensive prop/effect of the film. I am intrigued.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Rated PG-13 :(

I'll try not to get discouraged...I guess this movie is supposed to be more about the suspense anyway.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

The greatest shark film of all-time is rated PG. I think we'll be OK on this one.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Though to be fair, if the rating had existed it probably would have been PG-13.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Sharkansas Women's Prison Massacre is PG?

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Out this weekend.

Reviews seem to be pretty positive. Currently 92% on RT: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_shallows/

"Unequivocally the best shark movie since Jaws."

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

This seems like a mix of 127 Hours and Jaws, so I'm in.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

I enjoyed the test screening they did awhile back, looking forward to seeing the finished shark effects.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Think I'll check this out this weekend. I'm more interested in this than I am in Independence Day: Resurgence.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

It's only 86 minutes with credits.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

ID has less bikinis :)

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Sounds good to me. A movie like this doesn't need to be much longer, imo.

I'm really pleased that the reviews are positive so far. Can't wait to check this out next week.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Based on the trailers I'm calling it now.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Isn't she married to Ryan Reynolds? This sounds like Buried in the ocean.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Saw it last night. A good, fun flick with some tension and suspense. I thought Lively was pretty good and the shark effects weren't bad at all. 3.75/5

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

I don't see how you can make a full length movie out of one character and one animal and her trying to cross a short distance. That's a short story, not a feature film. I suspect a lot of stalling and filler.

But yeah, Blake in a bikini is always win.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

They made a movie about a guy with his arm caught under a boulder, and it got nominated for Best Picture. So I dunno, everything is doable.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

The director did a good job at making the beach, rocks etc seem just far enough to be dangerous. There's also a seagull who's got a pretty big role, so there's that.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

They made a movie about a guy stranded on an island and he had a ball hang with.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Or a movie about three people stuck on a chairlift. Which seems very similar to the concept of this movie.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Open Water and The Reef were similar shark movies where the protagonists were stuck in one location for the bulk of the film.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Open Water also has that famous, random nude scene.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

Probably inserted to please distributors.

Re: The Shallows (2016, D: Jaume Collet-Serra; S: Blake Lively)
 

ok .. so I was wrong on my above theory ... so kudos to the marketing department for not spoiling the film via the trailer.

That said, I think they overused the extended surfing scenes. Did we really need all the regular music above water/water sounds below? Once or twice would have been fine. We get it .. she's surfing.

Other than that, it was enjoyable if not a bit slow moving. While I think Lively isn't bad to look at, they could have removed have of the shots of her ass and the movie would not have changed at all. 3/5
