The USA grossed over $34,700.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/22/25 Full Review Audience Member 30 years old and this shows us there are loan sharks then there are Hollywood sharks Kevin Spacey, Frank Whaley, Benicio del Toro in a movie when what happens when someone in the workforce is tired of being toyed around by a superior that has no moral, remorse, is so self-absorbed, and greedy Spacey plays Buddy who's in charge, Whaley is a newly-hired producer assistant named Guy who's wishing to fulfill his dream in the movie business the big issue is that Buddy has no regard for others' feelings or ideas and Guy feels trampled on continuously by him the movie actually opens quite shockingly during the aftermath of the abuse taken with Guy finally taking matters into his own hands; then it shifts gears towards the first day of Guy starting his position seeing how all of this anger and anxiety has been building towards nobody wins without losing, how much torture at work can somebody take?, can you still make a killing in the Hollywood industry while also losing what matters?, can you actually get the nerve to say no or I don't care?, what do we really want once we've made it to the top?, life is nothing like the movies that's for sure the movie plays more like a psychological thriller than a routine comedy with a much much darker context certainly wasn't expecting the narrative to play out like it did with this both the actors are perfect here making some playful banter back and forth with their ideals of what's right, fair and unfair Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/21/25 Full Review Stephen L Ruthless, darkly funny, and disturbingly believable, Swimming with Sharks takes a scalpel to Hollywood power dynamics and slices deep. Kevin Spacey is magnetic in one of his most vicious roles, delivering a masterclass in controlled cruelty. Smartly written and lean in structure, the film works both as satire and psychological chamber piece. It’s brutal, sometimes bleakly hilarious — and far more honest about the industry than most of its glossier peers.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/29/24 Full Review Bulgantamir B the main character was really cute Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/29/24 Full Review Munkhjargal A There was a young film director who was willing to do whatever it took to make a movie in Hollywood. he starts working with a famous producer who is a domineering, manipulative and cold-hearted boss. Guy is also pushed to his limits when he learns that his sarcastic girlfriend has been using sex as a career move. he decides to take revenge by kidnapping her and inflicting cruel and unusual punishment on her. this movie is a brutal movie.
