This work obviously draws on similar works in the plot and scene assumptions, so it is basically not innovative. The director clearly understands the oldness and emptiness of the plot, so he uses the visual effects to make up for it. In the early stage, some pretty good surfing shots were inserted, but this just reduces the tension between the audience and the subsequent plot effects, resulting in a lack of horror in the whole film. . The plot logic of the story is rather chaotic. The heroine should have consumed a lot of physical strength and lost blood after surfing. The transfer plot she later made was too uncommon. At the beginning of the plot, the local people knew that there was a shark without warning, and obviously wanted to cover the opening. In the later plot, there were four people, two surfing scavengers and a teenager. The first three did not even know that there were sharks. It can't be said. When there are too many coincidences in a movie, this narrative technique will arouse the audience's disgust. In the end, the heroine did not choose to send a signal but attacked the sharks in the water after getting the flare gun. The director violated the basic common sense and survival instinct in order to highlight the battle between humans and sharks. The only highlight of this film is the figure of the heroine. The opening and the end of the film are given benefits. A small bay contains a shark, a dead whale, and a large number of jellyfish. This setting is too far-fetched. Although the show has stated that the shark has been attacked, he may be attacking people here for revenge!
