It's spring break and young people gather on the Florida coast to celebrate, drink and act like total morons. Danielle travels down to Seagull Beach in Florida to hook up with her two girlfriends and to have some fun. But the fun does not last for long as the waters are infested with deadly tiger sharks.
Wow, talk about a waste of time. The stupid title, Spring Break Shark Attack, kinda suggest that it's gonna be a bad experience watching this movie, but I never thought it would turn out to be as horrible as it did. It's a movie made for tv, and you can really tell because it cuts for commercial every so often without showing any commercial, and it's just extremely annoying to watch.
It's nicely shot and looks good, but it actually feels like you're watching a soap opera and that they've just added some sharks into the whole thing. Infact, it's like watching a double episode of Sunset Beach with only kids in, and add to that some lame sharks and some even lamer attacks that do not occur often enough, and when they do, you can't help but to shake your head and ask yourself why you're watching this mess. All the kids look really good as well, there's actually not one single kid in the movie who does not look good, I wonder if such a place exist.
So we get to follow Danielle (Shannon Lucio) who really nice to look at and that might be the only reason for watching the movie, but even that isn't good enough. Her dad forbids her to go down to Florida, but she takes off anyway and goes down there and hook up with some hunk who's the hero in the movie. For like almost an hour, it's more like a romantic teen flick that takes place around spring break than an actual thriller, and it just sucks big-time. I got really stressed out watching this as the dialogue is so bad, the kids are complete retards and NOTHING happens.
The movie actually starts out with a shark attack. There are some hot girls in the water and you know something's gonna happen and it all looks kinda promising. I mean hot chicks that are about to die in a gruesome way, who can say no to that? But unfortunately the actual attack is so lame, you can't help but to doubt what gonna be next. I should have turned it off right then and there, but I sat through the whole thing and afterwards I was quite sad that I did.
You think a movie like this would offer some cheesy good fun, but there's actually no humour involved whatsoever. The scenes that are supposed to have some suspense in them does not have anything to offer either, you know that either nothing gonna happen, or if something actually would happen, it's just gonna be crap anyway.
This movie's so bad and is such a waste of time, I can't stress this enough. It has absolutely nothing to offer. You might think that there'll be some hot naked chicks or some cool shark scenes, but there are no things like that. Probably one of the worst shark flicks ever.
