DVD Description
Arriving by boat at her family’s Louisiana lake island cabin, Sara (Sara Paxton, Superhero Movie, Last House on the Left) and her friends quickly strip down to their swimsuits for a weekend of fun in the sun. But when star football player Malik (Sinqua Walls) stumbles from the salt-water lake with his arm torn off, the party mood quickly evaporates. Assuming the injury was caused by a freak wake-boarding accident, the group realises they have to get Malik to a hospital on the other side of the lake, and fast. But as they set out in a tiny speedboat, the college friends discover the lake has been stocked with hundreds of massive, flesh-eating sharks! As they face one grizzly death after another, Sara and the others struggle desperately to fend off the sharks, get help and stay alive long enough to reach the safety of dry land.

This film certainly won't win oscars, but it's not trying to.
It's just having a bit of fun, silly fun, and for that, should be in your collection. Not all films need to be Goodfellas, One flew over the Cuckoos nest or Inception to be worthy. Films suit your mood and when you just what some brain dead silly entertainment, Shark night fits the bill perfectly. It's ideal for watching with a few friends over nibbles and beers. It grates on me when I go to someones house to watch a film and, on viewing their collection, realise it's only full of serious, worthy, intellectually stimulating films (I love watching this type of film in silence on my own). I don't understand the mentality of building a purely 'worthy' film library as, yes the films may have critical acclaim, but for watching with a few friends who want to have a chuckle, they'll kill the mood and make everyone silent. With Shark Night 3D you can chat/laugh and even throw popcorn at tv if you feel like it. The men and women are also in swim suits for most of the film, so there's eye candy for everyone too.
I gave it 4 stars because the way in which the sharks are used is sparse and not varied enough. You'll probably see half of the ending coming a mile off, but there are a few surprises.
The 3d is pretty good too, much better than expected. There is a great feeling of depth and the odd (very odd) object that flies towards you. It's a lot better 3d-wise than some of the 3D films I own, some of them big budget productions.

Format:Blu-ray
I very much enjoyed this movie, I have been waiting for a decent shark movie since Deep Blue Sea, and Shark Night very much lives up to that tag!
The storyline is well thought out, and the actors play their roles well!
The sharks look fantastic, and this film is brilliant in 3D!
Please don't listen to the 'haters' of this movie! You need to see it for yourselves and I promise that you will not be disappointed!

Shark night is rather an entertaining horror film that delivers the basics in story, character development and predictability, this is a very easy on the brain slasher flick B-movie style with sharks, the college kids all get eaten and torn up one by one as the plot unfolds, there is not allot in the way of gore but theres plenty of great scare moments and bloody deaths, this is pure popcorn fun for anyone, the effects are pretty good and the sharks all vary in size and species, this is all very far fetched but very entertaining which at the end of the day is what this type of movie is all about.

Never trust a trailer!
There were two things that made Spielberg's Jaws scary: 1) you never really saw the shark properly till the end 2) it was set on a holiday resort, so was in the realms of something... Read more

A trashy 'C'-movie that's okay with a few beers
There are a few rules to a successful horror: either go jokey but horrifyingly gruesome (Director Ellis' own 'Final Destination 2' / other successful 3D romp 'Piranha 3D') or go... Read more

Hard to go past a 16:9 native 3D title
The 3D on this blu-ray is fantastic, as indeed it should be given the fact it was shot natively, the 1.78:1 framing helps as well. Read more
