Trailer for Shark Night

Vacationing college students fight a shiver of sharks after traveling to an island getaway and being surrounded by the ferocious man-eaters in this sun-soaked shocker from director David R. Ellis (Final Destination 2, Snakes on a Plane). The moment Sara (Sara Paxton) and her friends arrive at her parent's Louisiana lake house, the party is in full gear.

Vacationing college students fight a shiver of sharks after traveling to an island getaway and being surrounded by the ferocious man-eaters in this sun-soaked shocker from director David R. Ellis (Final Destination 2, Snakes on a Plane). The moment Sara (Sara Paxton) and her friends arrive at her parent's Louisiana lake house, the party is in full gear. Everyone is swimming in the salt-water lake and having a blast until Malik (Sinqua Walls) loses his arm in what initially appears to be a tragic wake-boarding mishap. Determined to get him to the nearest hospital as quickly as possible, Malik's friends fire up the speedboat and hit the water full throttle. It isn't until they're far from shore that the reality of the situation finally dawns on them -- the lake is teeming with hungry sharks, and a tiny speedboat isn't about to stop them from getting their next meal. Suddenly, a severed arm is the least of their worries. As the feeding frenzy begins, Sara and her pals realize that their only hope for survival is to swim for their lives and reach the beach without becoming fish food.

  1. Negative review
    Nick Pinkerton, Village Voice Shark Night, handled with impersonality by Snakes on a Plane pilot David R. Ellis, aspires to nothing more or less than carrying along an audience through a string of unremarkable kills, often involving high-jumping fish. Full review External link
  2. Negative review
    Chris Gallo, Dark Horizons Look, here's the short of it: This is pretty dumb movie. Ok it's a very dumb movie. Full review External link
  3. Negative review
    Wesley Morris, Boston Globe A second round is out of the question. Unless, of course, they called it "Gladys Knight 3D.'' Then all is forgiven. Full review External link
  4. Negative review
    Linda Barnard, Toronto Star The sharks are rubber and the performances are wooden and that's just about all you need to know. Full review External link
  5. Negative review
    Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times The result is a movie that isn't crummy, exactly, just blah: when the freakiest teeth on screen belong not to one of Walt Conti's animatronically realized sharks but to a good-ol'-boy called Red, you know you have a problem. Full review External link
  6. Negative review
    Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times Sharks have it bad enough as endangered, misunderstood predators with a terrible public relations image without seeing their serial-killing stardom drowned out by hammy acting and torture-porn villainy. Full review External link
  7. Negative review
    Adam Markovitz, Entertainment Weekly A ho-hum series of kills and lulls so predictable that it doesn't even look like much fun for the sharks; when they open wide, they might as well be yawning. Full review External link
  8. Negative review
    Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News The one crime a B-movie should never commit is boring its audience. By even these low standards, "Shark Night 3D" is dead in the water. Full review External link
