Sadly, all of this miscommunication represents a large failure in what the movie aims to accomplish, or what it thinks it is accomplishing. Go to Full Review

.5/5
Chum is another slum level shark thriller which unsuccessfully binds several genre tropes together as a way to distract from shoddy special effects and bland, grating characterizations, while poor Alice Eve seems to be paying a karmic price... Go to Full Review

Haphazardly edited, abysmally performed, and featuring some stunningly atrocious visual effects, Chum more than lives up to its title. Go to Full Review

Chum is so painful to watch that swimming with sharks sounds like a more enjoyable way to spend your time. Go to Full Review

Andre L @ROTTENCORPSE 2d Nothing new and so many better shark movies out there. The shark kills were decent but not impressive. Kind of silly plot, and laughable acting. Then we get the "climate change" nonsense to end the movie. See more tm11999 M @tm11999 6d poor alice eve, she spent her own money making this. in order to gain a little something, she tacks on one final scene at the very end explaining that "climate change" is to blame for fish swimming. she's 44 now, childless and getting moon-faced and a little middle age chunky butt, so she'll be a lonely old cat lady. go ahead and paint the back fence instead, it needs it. See more Emily I @RT29209339 Jun 30 This movie was ok, but I was hoping for more this movie just doesn’t give me what I was looking for. When I watch a shark movie I want (47 meters down) shark movie. And this was not that, So it’s definitely a no for me but from your own opinion. (FYI the CGI was horrible too) See more Stiles T @RT40609613 Jun 21 The only Reason why it has 2 Starts is because of Alice Eve, I remember her in She's Out Of My League, and that is the only reason I have rated it Unfortunately this does not appeal to me as an avid Shark Movie Lover The Casting is Appalling and the storyline is horrific and there is no Beginning, Middle, end or Plot. The CGI Was also horrible and the shark jumping out of the water for no reason. See more Michael P @Michael1057 Jun 13 bad. nothing but bad. See more Jason V @Dieguito78 Jun 11 A truly disappointment indie shark film Its literally the type of tubi shark film but with ai Don't see this See more Read all reviews
