      Audience Member It took 3 writers to make this wet scat? Terrible at every turn. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Even at its best; Most of the garbage in SyFy's Maneater series is at least short; Shark Swarm has the gall to be almost 3 hours long. Putting up with the shoestring budget and over serious drivel for that long is far too much to take. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member it's not a bad movie, but at 2 and a half hours long, you could of cut out an HOUR of human interaction and had a better movie. Lots of shark action, but lots of focus on the human actors...and most of them are serviceable at best. 2 Stars, simply because I laughed my ass off at the swim instructor who died after showing the little girl the water was fine and the mom ignored the kid by yammering away on her cell phone. Some pretty decent modern realism in a horror movie, and the acting was that bad. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Good acting, kept us entertained without demanding our full attention. For a shark movie we liked it. Wouldn't watch it again, but I didn't feel like it was a total waste of time. Among the shark genre we gave it a B mostly for the good acting by Daryl Hannah and john Schneider who did a lot with very little. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review paul d A film that is way too long and lacks the gore or smart performances to be enjoyable at any level. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Not the best shark movie but not bad :) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Stefan Birgir Stefans sbs.is Shark Swarm is competently made, has fine actors, some interesting scenes and shark attacks, but it dredges on for way too long. It might have been a solid 80-minute flick but at almost 3 hours, it lays dead in the water. Rated: 2/5 Aug 18, 2023 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed This Benchley wannabe never quite delivers on what it promises us... May 25, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews
