It amazes me that Jaws was made 40 years ago and its still the best shark movie ever made, even though effects have come a long way since then. While Jaws did everything right, this movie did everything wrong. With Dolph Lungren in this movie, I thought at least the special effects would be good. They are atrocious! The attacks are atrocious! The suspense is atrocious! And the acting is a bore! If I could have given a zero, I would. Totally forgettable.One of the worst scenes was a shark barreling into the boat and the effect of water pouring in was laughable. Why did I waste 90 minutes of my life for this. Learn from my mistake and don't do the same.

Ok this was soo stupid. Dolph Lundgren has maybe 15 lines and he mumbles all of them. The main actress was annoying and the police chief was terrible. The grandma's acting is soo bad. The CGI is beyond awful. This isn't even so bad it's good it's just plain horrible. I could go on but I don't want to waste anymore time on this film than I already did. Do not watch this!

Shark Lake is a B grade flick without the bite found in mainstream films like Jaws. This film relies too much on munch-able eye candy in the form of scantily clad men and women, where a proper storyline, lots of action and accompanying quality creature effects, would have taken it so much further. The acting ranges from average through to awful. This film would have been much better, for example, without the fake English shark hunter. A clichéd characterization that would make any real Brit wince. So is there any basis on which on recommend Shark Lake? Well, its not utterly dreadful but its action scenes are so watered down (pardon the pun), that what should have been the driving force, in a film of this kind, is mostly absent. Three out of ten from me.
