Our review: Halle Berry is at her best in this movie that makes the 'Jaws' franchise look absolutely ridiculous. Her graceful movement in the water is beauty enough to make this movie worth watching, but it is her range of authentic emotions that keep you glued to your seat. This movie was neither predictable or boring. All-in-all, if you love shark movies, this is the one above all others we'd recommend for our viewers. South Africa is stunningly portrayed in this film. Note: Some South African words are used, but are sub-titled in English and are infrequent and are usually casual chit chat.
(Our rating)
Rated PG-13 for bloody shark attacks/disturbing images, and for mild language including sexual references
Family Guide: Being a movie that includes a lot of swimming, you do see women and men in swimming attire (bikinis) and some cleavage, otherwise sexual talk and innuendos are mild and jokingly said and nudity is not a real issue. This movie has some very intense scenes that include being around wild animals, animal attacks, blood, gore, animal violence and the stars involved in dangerous stunts and situations. Small children may be frightened by these scenes, and we recommend that parents use discretion for teens as well. Profanity is limited mainly to name calling and brief exchanges. Alcohol usage and cigarette smoking is shown.
