Warning: Spoilers
This girl killed man eating sharks like they're baby guppies. It's hilarious when she easily kills 2 sharks with just a piece of driftwood. Then she angers one enough to swim all the way up to the shore to gnaw at her leg, but she gets him too with a big fluffy piece of coral reef.

I FF through most of this because it wasn't nearly as interesting as Open Water was. And why was she wearing a form fitting girdle? When the monsoon happened she was sleeping in just her t shirt, but by the end with the shark fight, she's clearly wearing some kind of form fitting Spanx around her waist that she wasn't wearing earlier.

And even more absurd was the fisherman at the end. He was clearly a local who went out to fish in that little round boat a lot. You could tell by the way he had all his gear with him that he was an experienced fisherman, so he would know if there were sharks in the water and wouldn't have gone swimming in it.

Watch Open Water or Open Water 2 instead. Either one of those films are leagues above this awful mess. Alicia Silverstone deserves better than this---but I guess she needed a paycheck bad. She looked good though and seems to have avoided messing up her face with plastic surgery like many middle aged actresses do. She should be in better films than this though.
