Swim

Come on guys. This is simply a test of someone's dogged endurance to sit through what must be one of the worst productions I've seen in a long time. There are no spoilers as there are no highlights to reveal. The storm scenes, the treading water then in waist deep water scenes, were enough to do me in. We're at 30min in and even my remote is wanting me to turn this off. Tubi, you then give us a reprieve by going to a commercial break. Not often that one is looking forward to a commercial. Gotta go now. Let me know how it ends. Ah, no don't.

I appreciate the content that Tubi offers for free. It is a streaming service with many quality movies that deserves more attention. As Swim is one of the first movies originally produced by Tubi, I wanted to like this movie. Unfortunately, this movie doesn't even live up to the standards of a Syfy Channel movie. The only positive comments that can be made are that the movie is fast-paced and that shark movies are always a little fun. This movie makes many mistakes that even a B horror movie shouldn't make. The list of problems in this movie include but are not limited to:

-A 55 year old actor pretending to be a 90 year old

-The lead actress keeps her mouth open for almost the entire film

-Very predictable number and order of deaths

-poor CGI and an unintimidating shark

-Painful dialogue (ex. At one point, an actor explains to the audience the purpose of a flare gun)

-Characters are either unlikeable or poorly developed

With the number of shark movies made each year, you can certainly find a better shark movie than this one. But hey, at least this film is better than Shark Exorcist (2015).

Dumb story.....bad special effects.....but it was the acting that really sunk this movie(the Mom in particular....she literally has the same "shocked"expression on her face the entire movie!!)I gave it 3 stars for the effort,probably more than it deserves....

This movie was so awful that I couldn't look away. The acting, "special effects", storyline and writing was on a level of atrocious that I have never seen in film before. I erupted in laughter at many of the attack scenes and found myself shaking my head in frustration at the reasoning of the characters. This movie is now on my list for my Bad Horror Movie Night binges. The entire thing looks like it was made on a budget of $10. It is the worst thing I've ever seen. I'm giving it 3 stars because I'm so amazed at how terrible it was, it seems more like a shark horror parody than anything else.

The mother looked way too young. The kids look like they're pushing 25.
