We let my daughter's boyfriend pick the movie, so the pressure was on. I'm not sure why he gravitated toward the shark movies, but he spent a lot of time in the category.
A woman's mother goes missing, and she heads off to search for her. Her mother was an environmental activist who was researching an alternative to plastic. The mother's crew comes together to join the search. We have Guru the conspiracy guy, the British dude, another guy and the social media chick.
There's a considerable lack of shark in this movie. Honestly, the amount of people killed by the shark is equal to the number of people killed by the guy who wanted to sell the super seaweed recipe. I'm still kinda hazy on the plastic people. I thought they were part of Guru's conspiracies, but then the group blamed Guru's death on them, so I guess they were real after all?
This movie was pretty boring. Some of the dialogue was hilarious, but nothing happened. We didn't see the shark, and they never defeated it. The "huntress" tried to kill the shark once (and that's a generous evaluation of what she was doing), and she missed anyway.
My daughter's boyfriend apologized. But we've all been there. Picking movies blind is a crap shoot, and it seems like half the time we lose. No apology necessary! :D (But the movie was really bad...)
