Absolutely awful comedy in actual fact it really is not a comedy and I cannot even see why it would be billed as a comedy. They have two of the funniest comedians France has at the moment
Kad Merad and
Marina Foïs are incredibly funny comedians but here none of their skills are used.
This was to be expected here this is not a film about a shark off the coast of south-west France it is a film about population perception of a threat and this is made right after the two years of Covid and it is really an allegory of what happens when a population is threatened by an external enemy real or otherwise and this is really to me what this is about how people take sides people decide what is harmful who is harmful it becomes a bitching marathon a sort of they are doing this because of that kind of deal.
Not entirely sure this was conscious by the writers of this film but to me at the metalevel this is obviously what this is talking about... So forget the sharks forget the lipservice jibes about global warming aka climate short-change but instead focus on population reactions
Having said that it is nonetheless an absolute piece of trite rubbish with some of the best actors again must be said totally underused misused it is a shocker I give it a score of one or two tops. It has no pulse of rhythm at any point.
A shameful display.
