The first half of the film merely treads water in anticipation for the eventual bloodbath, and once the teeth start gnawing, it's just one laborious machination after another to get to the end of the movie, which stops without much of a resolution.
Kyle Anderson, Entertainment Weekly
Rotten
With most of the running time devoted to setting up and over-explaining the premise, mayhem gets short shrift.
Justin Lowe, Hollywood Reporter
Rotten
Gulager ... mostly seems to be trying to see how much he can degrade the old Jaws formula and still have it interpreted as parody rather than apathy.
Tasha Robinson, AV Club
Rotten
The director, John Gulager, has no idea how to mix his ingredients to create a savvy self-parody.
