Netflix has done it once again with an instantly successful shark feature, but critics aren't very impressed. The film, like many of that genre, borrows heavily from Steven Spielberg's iconic 1975 thriller, Jaws, which features a great white shark terrorizing people in a New England summer resort town. However, unlike Jaws, a disastrous hurricane is thrown into the mix, making the stakes even higher as it brings with it a school of bull sharks, which are smaller and faster than great whites, but just as ravenous.
