No Way Up

This definitely isn't gonna be the best film of the year, but it is decent and entertaining to watch. Most actors do a solid job, most notably the main actress, even though the boyfriend and the best friend characters could have benefited from better directing and a few more acting classes. There was some unnecessary backstorying involved with the side characters and you do have to suspend belief for a few of the scenes, but nothing you don't already do with most shark films. I enjoyed the dry humor and the witty dialogue, and was heavily engaged by the time the last part rolled around.

It really isn't one of those horrible-low budget-bad acting-disaster films most reviewers on here claim it is, definitely judge by yourself.

I was undecided about the rating... I wanted to give 4 but then I decided to give it a 3.

I am a fan of movies about sharks. I think I watched all of them. Yeah sometimes they are unrealistic, but shark swimming down the aisle of an airplane is whole another level!

Order of illogical scenes made me think how filmmaker brain works and how anyone can see this as logical and normal?

Found the movie quite boring, I almost fell asleep. It didn't hold my attention and it was predictable.

Worth watching?

Not really.

Would I watch if there was part 2?

Absolutely. Just because I have soft spot for shark movies.

This is a case of if the filmmakers had a big budget, and bigger stars that this film would have been far better.

For what is was, No Way Up is an entertaining film, that showed a great deal of potential. I don't think it was any less believable than say Meg and Meg 2. So I don't see why it is getting the hate. Sometimes you have to watch a movie and appreciate that the filmmaker did the best they could. This is definitely the case. I was not bored once whilst watching No Way Up. I would have to say it is actually better than all the other shark films that have surfaced lately. So if you can watch a film for what it is, and appreciate the potential it had, you should enjoy this film.

After reading the reviews I just had to see this movie to see if it was as bad as so many stated. Turns out it was decent and deserved a watch. Makes me wonder just how many decent movies I've missed because I relied on the reviews of others who apparently expect each movie they review to be an Oscar winner or it isn't worth watching. Needless to say, I will be considering a lot more movies in the future and relying less on the reviews. I also wonder if the people giving bad reviews have some sort of agenda? I would hate to think so but nowadays just about anything is possible. Anyway, enjoy the movie and if not, consider your expectations maybe need adjustment.

This is a film about a Teddy who survives being lost in an airport, a plane crash and sharks only to be heartlessly tossed back onto the dark watery depths by his owner! Justice for Mr Timms!!!

I realise it wasn't setting out to be an epic and it's quite entertaining, I did keep shouting, not sure sharks do that and I'd have liked some of the minor characters to have a bit more of an arc but hey, it does what it says on the tin. One character does something toward the end that I found particularly frustrating, I just don't think that would be a choice a grandmother would make but hey we are not looking for realism. That poor Teddy though.
