First Half is Slow and Confusing
7 October 2022
So, it wasn't bad, some good A-listers. But I've watched military movies with their fast solider talk that was easier to follow than this. The first half was pointless unless you understood what they were talking about, it was just all over the place. If they were trying to give quick backstories for workers, it was kinda cringy. The first half should've been the explosion and the second half the aftermath. The workers dealing with their injuries, the impact on animals, actions against BP. I like the movie and glad I finally watched it, but its not one I'll watch again. The Impossible (Tsunami), Greater (Arkansas Football) and My All American (UT Football) are real-life movies worthy of rewatching.

Bull Shark (2022)
Sharks really do live in lakes, but this isn't a shark movie
21 July 2022
I've seen a few reviews about how unrealistic it is about sharks living in freshwater lakes. There have been sightings and attacks in the Great Lakes, Lake Ontario, Trinity River. Lakes in Louisiana and California. So that part is probably the only true and good thing about this film. The public needs to be educated, but since this movie is more an SNL Jaws parody (without the comedic approach) they really dropped the ball. And really, it's not even about sharks. It's about a small Texas town with corrupt political figures and a game warden struggling with alcoholism, divorce and being a bad father. The sharks have small guest appearances a couple times and then some plastic fins a few other times. Nope. No thanks.

*The people behind this film have a funny stereotype of Texas. But seriously dude, we're not a bunch of beer drinking till we fall over drunk people.*
