Really mixed feelings on this one. Put me into a slump and had no real drive to pick it up, as it’s super outdated with some awful misogyny and a slur on page 12. When it was about the shark the tension was great and it was compelling, but any and all people related plot lines were not the one. One of the few times I think I’ll ever say the film is better.
