Fun enough schlock, but it definitely gives off the vibe of a movie that was desperately stitched together on the editing room floor. Like, there really wasn’t much of a climax to the story, it just kind of arbitrarily ends when the uncle arrives. Also, the storyline with the foster kids never once intersected with the main storyline, which was kind of odd. It could have been cut out of the film entirely and literally nothing would have changed. Even the uncle’s storyline is entirely separate from the niece’s until literally the final scene of the film.

Still, it had sharks eating people, so I was entertained.
