You go into these movies, knowing they'll be Jaws lookalikes - shark cage and comparing shark bite span and child going into the water and beach goers running out of the water and all. And honestly, they might not go wrong anywhere. Just that ... nothing really happens. You just sit there, watch these images pass by, and think: if they're not even hoping to top Jaws (like The Shallows did), if they don’t even make an attempt to better Jaws, then why try? Unless they're just Chinese productions promoting the Chinese. Not that I have anything against the Chinese.
