Audience Reviews

Sierbahnn 2/10 Jun 01, 2026
Groundhog day with sharks, although not very good
This is clearly not a Chinese remake of The Shallows (2016) but they hint that it might be. It is more like Groundhog day (1993) but with extra steps, and a far less satisfying conclusion. The effects are cheap for such a big production, the directing weak and the performances lackluster. I cannot recommend this.
