The Last Breath

I get that it's a shark movie but plausibility wasn't even a factor in this film!. As the plot goes WW2 ship sinks, 80 years later divers go down for a pleasure dive and have little trouble. Questions: Where's the fish? I mean there is one fish other than the shark! Did it sink in a swimming pool? Why does this ship look like it sank only last year? Where's the silt? Why is there no growth anywhere? Why is there medicine of any use in the medical drawers?. Doors that work? Air pockets, really? When they researched for the film did they speak to actual divers? It's made well with regards to camera angles, lighting, music etc. That's all good I can say about it.

I was unsure as to if I wanted to watch The Last Breath, I have really had it up to here with shark movies of late. I get it that everyone wished they had made Jaws, but they didn't. Anyway, I decided to give this a go as I could always turn it off if it were so bad. I was pleasantly surprised though. A group of friends got into trouble by diving into an old warship wreck and being stalked by sharks while running low on oxygen. The acting wasn't bad, some of the CGI was pretty bad quality. However, overall it was an enjoyable film to watch, even though the ending was truly a bit blah. The Last Breath would have to be one of the better shark movies of late.

A ship during the world war 2 sinks and decades later, it is found in the present day Noah and old Levi. They are happy about the fortune they are going to make after their discovery. They are accompanied by Noah's old friends for a dive to the shipwreck. Sounds adventurous? No. Add sharks, plural and it immediately becomes adventurous. With the human characters making enough dumb choices and the lazy sharks allowing them to, who will eventually survive the sharks attack, forms rest of the story. The sharks are entirely CGI and there is nothing much fun about them. Those scenes, be it the build up or the actual scene, they remain bland throughout. The typecasted characters, a couple of brats, the typical female lead, her ex who is humiliated by the brats and the fact that they are all easy baits. Despite the film starting off with a flashback and jumping into present day, it's two different set of characters and before getting used to any of them, the story moves forward with the bunch of friends joining and none of them are worth rooting for. With the short runtime and enough kills, The Last Breath still doesn't make the cut for a passable shark film.

Its a really amazing movie wich worth watching :) The most thing I've liked is about. Kim Lysette actor which really workhard in this movie <3 The movie were talking about a group of friends which decide to visit some island which were the other friends were there. After the lovely night when they spend it every thing has changed at the next day when one of the group member decided to spend extra time in the sea. When they were diving they faced many problems and heavy accidents in the water but you will see how they deal with it. It let you a little nervous when you watch that what can let you enjoy the movie as well.

When i can't sleep at night i sometimes look for a underwater or shark movie, the atmosphere watching them in the dark just makes me feel so cozy. Its hard to find decent ones now because not a lot are made due to production. They are so heavily criticized without taking into aspect the fact that it is all filmed under water, scuba equipment for everyone, Film crew and all. Knowing this i give most of these movies a break. I experienced a tragedy and had severe insomnia... finding this hidden movie was a god send. Something about the atmosphere of this movie the claustrophobia is just genius and should of been the main focus with the shark as a minor antagonist. Everything about it tho surpassed expectations. Due to the low rating i wasn't expecting much, surpassed my every expectation... most movies of this standard flop towards the end, and this ones last 15 minutes were not terrible so again thats another win. And Julian's send off at the end i feel was a reach out to someone special. (The actor passed before the films end and cost the production to halt to a stop) Someone already said it. "Its not jaws, but it should bei the sequel to it"...my only issue with the movie is the last few deaths seemed rushed, and i would of made the oxygen more of a problem, not saying it wasn't but at one point the sharks take over all the action making the lack of oxygen take a backseat. The sharks were good, looked good and the dismemberments were excellent practical effects, sharks were cgi but hidden in shadows and not much screen time to keep viewer in belief(tho the cgi isnt bad at times its just not the same as practical effects) Infact the gore elements( the practical effects) where amazing, i kept wondering how they did certain things underwater without making it look goofy. I will watch this movie agian one day, years from now with few friends and cold beer on a rainy day. And again in years with my kids late at night cuddled up on the couch. I must say, not a oscar winner, but definitely one of the better shark movies to come out in the last few years And earning a place on my shelf. Ignore the low rating, or infact embrace it knowing its a shark movie...and then be pleasantly suprised when you realize it isn't some B movie the rating suggests. Id give it a higher rating but it had the potential to be so much better. Still GREAT SHARK film for 2024. When cinema seems dead.

To be honest I flicked this movie on, just to see if I could stick it out but then I saw Julian Sands' name and I thought 'wow, this must be his last movie', in fact the last few scenes show him in a wet suit and could've been anybody so not sure if he passed before it was finished? It's good, well it spends a fair bit of time on the character development, the sharks were a bit far fetched as their behaviour was a bit too sophisticated at times, the kills were pretty good and it has some nice shots, just not too grounded in reality, it's a decent couple of hours and it's Julian's last film, deserves a watch imo...

So the first scene is a submarine blowing up a ship, then a man appears in the water, then another man appears, the first one calls for him to come over as he hold on to some debre, he's about to go over then shouts, I think there's something in the water, 1st man shouts again get over here, so 2nd man starts to swim over only to dissappear under water, then pops back up for a few seconds before getting he's whole body beaten, 1st man grabs he's hand to help him, a week goes by before he notices that there's no body attached to it... That alone was enough for me, I'm not going to sit down and regret wasting my time...

Don't know why rating given by IMDb is low, this movie deserves more. It doesn't looks like B movie vfx and scenes made very well and it keeps on entertaining till end.sharks looks like real and when attacks on humans seems to be surreal I feel like watching similiar concept made by uncaged movie. I recommend to watch this movie ignoring the rating as it is a good movie there are few flaws like doctor giving treatment to injured person under water by injecting old medicines. Irrespective of logics and this movie entertains in terms of sharks attacks and exploring the old ship inside the dark waters.

Magandang pelikula!
