What a waste of my time!!!

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This movie begins with three young, Japanese women frolicking in their bikinis on a beach in Okinawa and recording everything on a video recorder. One month later two other Japanese women travel to the same beach and they are also given a free video recorder while they are staying at the same small hotel. Anyway, as the story evolves, one of the young ladies by the name of "Mai" (Ari Nakajima) develops a crush on one of the local men which leaves her companion, "Miki" (Nonami Takizawa) all by herself while she strolls on the beach with her new boyfriend. As luck would have it, Miki discovers a video tape of the three ladies mentioned earlier and while watching it she begins to see certain things not meant for public viewing. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this film had a number of flaws which really affected the overall quality of the movie. To be more specific, the acting, camera work, dialogue, special effects and just about everything else was quite bad. As a matter of fact, about the only good thing going for this movie was the presence of the five young ladies mentioned earlier who were all quite cute. But even so, none of them could have possibly saved this film from the major flaws listed previously

Just to clarify. The film has a running time of one hour and six minutes, which is set entirely on land. Not an exaggeration, just a fact. This should warn you how little shark action there is. NONE! This film is based on the false premise that even a bad 'Jaws' rip off is still a 'Jaws' rip off. How hard can it be? All you need is a giant killer shark eating people. Cut, print! After seeing over 30 sharkxploitation films I know this isn't true. 'Jaws' rip offs can be bad. Really really really bad!!! Like 'Cruel Jaws' or 'The Last Shark.' This one takes the prize.It's more a rip off of 'Paranormal Inactivity' than it is 'Jaws.' Hence it's really really bad. It's a "found footage" film of girls on vacation filming themselves. So it's not as painful as 'Paranormal Activity' because they're speaking Japanese so the characters are less annoying.Scary music plays when the girls are either taking a shower or alone in their hotel rooms. Begging the question, who's filming this? Why is scary music playing? The killer isn't Jason, it's a shark. The shark isn't going to break into their hotel room! We know this! This might actually have made sense of the girls were out on a yacht where the shark could attack them. But chartering a boat would require actual money from the film makers.The rest of the film is also ON LAND! The first rule of a sharkxploitation film is to get your characters out on the water where they can be eaten! The shark can't come ashore! The supposed "action" scenes are also on LAND! That's right. They're in three feet of water on the beach when the shark shows up! This isn't scary! They can walk away! A great white can't get you in three feet of water! This isn't scary! Just to clarify. The film has a running time of one hour and six minutes, which is set entirely on land! Not an exaggeration, just a fact. This should warn you how little action there is.At least the film does barrow from 'Baywatch's success. Silicone, silicone, and even more silicone! This is exploited for all it's worth with tons of scenes of the girls jumping up and down screaming for help and even a scene where a knife is held by cleavage. Yes, they're all Japanese girls which makes this even funnier.Don't watch this film!

I don't know about you, but I always enjoy seeing pretty girls on vacation, giggling and posing for the camera in their bikinis. Maybe that's just me, though. Lots of suspense, not much horror, although the evil psycho "shark" is very wicked indeed. And it's a shame the cuties have their vacation spoiled. It just goes to show that if you're going to plan a trip to an exotic local, you really should make reservations and know where it is you are going.All in all, this movie seemed a lot longer than it was, since nothing much really happened until the very end. And it was odd that those bikini tops never even came off; that might have livened things up a bit.

I wish i could give this movie less. It does not warrant a 'so bad its good' award either, its just total muck. Pretty girls go to the beach, and talk...a lot. Some shady guys seem to be up to no good, but we never really find out much about whats going on. Pretty girls take lots of showers, in their bikini's.The EndOh OK so its not the end, but chances are you wont make it to the end. If you do you will get to see the 'Shark' in the title. It makes the syfi movies cgi look like the matrix and its on camera in the whole film for about 15 seconds max.ZZZZ Shark
