The Shallows - Kritiken

...actually one of the more cleverly constructed B-movies in quite some time.

...situations are primal and often terrifying. The fact that they unfold in a fairly contained space—a stretch of shore-bordered water that looks to be about a kilometer across—intensifies the suspense.

...schlocky, seriously entertaining shark movie with attitude.

...this Gravity-with-sharks grips you in its teeth and never lets go...

...an energetic survival thriller and terrific showcase for Lively’s chops...

...gimmicky survival thriller...

...may not have the nightmare-inducing feeling I have been chasing since I was a kid, but it’ll do in a pinch.

...det andet akt, som er selve filmens kerne er en spændende og hidsig omgang menneske-mod-rovdyr, der skaber en oprigtig bekymring for den mindre og mindre eventyrlystne kvinde...

Blake Lively yder en formidabel indsats som den kæmpende final girl.

…mixen av azurblått och blodrött har sällan varit mer effektfull…

…med effektiv klippning, en tuff hjältinna och några riktigt spännande scener så lyckas den här leverera hajaction som heter duga.

Effektiv och underhållande hajskräck.
