Rating: 3/5 -- The film is a throwback to the heyday of the Australian exploitation movie. Full Review

The Australian-Singaporean co-production is generally polished and effects work is solid, including the massive animatronic sharks.

Rating: 3/5 -- More funny than scary, it often feels like Deep Blue Sea meets The Mist... but what's wrong with that? Full Review

3 stars out of 5 -- [T]he subplots and characterisations stay afloat....It often feels like DEEP BLUE SEA meets THE MIST...

[It] has many flaws, the foremost among these is the inability to indicate whether we're supposed to consider the savage behavior brought on by its crises as ambiguous or unassailably good. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Enormous fun, thanks to pacey direction, strong performances, a number of nicely handled gory bits and a script that pays close attention to the demands of the shark attack genre movie. Full Review

Product Description:

Supermarket shoppers battle man-eating sharks when a tsunami plunges a coastal resort under water, and the perfect predator gets a whole new stalking ground. Queensland, Australia: The weather is perfect, the water is blue, and the vacationers at a luxury resort file into an underground supermarket to stock up for another day in paradise. Just then, an armed madman bursts in with an itchy trigger finger and a desperate gleam in his eye. Little do the frightened hostages realize, he will soon be the least of their worries; the waters around Queensland are rising fast, and before long the store will be completely submerged. When that happens, the aisles will be filled with hungry tiger sharks in search of a fresh meal. Now, in order to avoid becoming the Catch of the Day, the desperate shoppers must band together, and show the sharks who's really at the top of the food chain.
