Haphazardly edited, abysmally performed, and featuring some stunningly atrocious visual effects, Chum more than lives up to its title.

For all its blood in the water, Chum rarely inspires fear.

Chum is so painful to watch that swimming with sharks sounds like a more enjoyable way to spend your time.

Like so many shark movies before it, Chum desperately wants to be jaws. Like so many shark movies before it, chum never even comes close.

Incompetence and AI-level FX aside there is something almost reassuring that films that feel 85% ADR’d like this can still exist to provide the unintentional laughter that purposefully bad films will never be able to replicate.

I truly don't know whether to tell you this movie is bad in a fun way or just plain bad, because I found the experience of watching it more puzzling than anything else.

The only Reason why it has 2 Starts is because of Alice Eve, I remember her in She's Out Of My League, and that is the only reason I have rated it Unfortunately this does not appeal to me as an avid Shark Movie Lover The Casting is Appalling and the storyline is horrific and there is no Beginning, Middle, end or Plot. The CGI Was also horrible and the shark jumping out of the water for no reason.

Even for a bad movie, this is just horrible. Bad acting, bad dialogue. Couldn’t watch more than half an hour.

I understand that you need to adjust your expectations when watching a low budget shark movie. Even with that in mind this lacks any redeeming qualities. Would Not Recommend Avoid At All Costs

I could’ve used the money they had for this total complete cinematic diarrhea. Sorry diarrhea if I offended you.
