Which forum do we put TV movies into?

This movie was so heavily promoted over the last few weeks, I'm sure that some of you saw it, so I'm surprised there isn't a thread on this already...

So what did you think? Pretty awful really, but I watched the whole thing. It's surprising how a shark movie can keep your interest, even when the shark attacks are wedged awkwardly inbetween a dodgy love story and Coolio.

Kinda like Twister, The River Wild and Deep Blue Sea. But not as good as any of them.

I was also wondering... since it's a TV movie, did they film it with fullscreen presentation in mind? Or did they have to pan and scan a widescreen version to play it on TV. I was half hoping it would be played in widescreen, but then again, it is TBS...

It's was.. ok. The story was really awful. The shark itself looked good (except for the CG one). They could have done a much better job. Good idea to put it at the end of Shark Week tho it got some competition for the repeat showings of Deep Blue Sea on TNT.
