Let's go to the Land Down Under.
Is this Film good enough to redeem the former Captain Boomerang?
Let's find out...
Jai Courtney plays a guy named Tucker (or Tuck) is a guy you hire to people you 'swim' with sharks in a cage.He's a modern day Captain Ron (will anyone under 40 get this joke), but...
He's also a Serial Killer.
He's also a Serial Killer.
He tortures ladies and then feeds them to sharks.
Alongside another future victim, she waits and plans an escape.
He's going to feed the other lady to a shark and make her watch.

It will be her turn soon enough...
Can she find a way to escape from his boat?
Is he truly the 'apex predator' that he thinks of himself as?
Or will this guy rise to the occasion to save the day?

My money is on the sharks.
No offense.

Kudos to Australia for raising the bar. We in America tend to get lots of CGI Shark Movies via Syfy or, well, the one remaining Polonia Brother.
This one is a good mix of Genres as Courtney really nails the intense killer vibe. He can be emotionless in the right moments and very angry in the other moments.
I won't SPOIL it, but he has as a great weakness that our Heroine exploits to save her life (for the time being).
The sharks work well here as an existential threat just waiting to be used. They are like a loaded gun sitting on the edge of desk.
You know that they will be used...it's just a matter of when.
