a5c7b9f00b A radioactive shark appears to be making bathers burst into flames. Even while people are eating at a local seafood restaurant , still No one believes what has been witnessed evenlocal lifeguards strive to keep people safe. So they band together with the last of the film crew to get real evidenceone by one they watch in horrorbeach goers burst into flames, in and out of the water. Will they hunt the Atomic Shark and succeed? Will anyone live? Will the West Ciast go down in flames? A group of lifeguards attempt to kill an atomic shark that is terrorizing the coast of San Diego. Scott Foy, Jack Snyder, and Griff Furst&#39;s Atomic Shark script is first rate and under the gifted direction of A.B. Foy, this is an exceptional thriller. It is, however, the standout work of Rachele Brooke Smith that distinguishes this and leaves an unforgettable impression. She give nothing less than the performance of a lifetime and her characterization shows fantastic emotion and depth. Overall, a fine film but made something very special by Ms. Smith&#39;s tremendous work. Following a wave of shark attacks, Southern California lifeguards find that they&#39;re being attacked by a great white shark subjected to massive amounts of radiation from nuclear tests and must try to save the beaches when the shark approaches a crisis mode.<br/><br/>There was a lot to really like about this one. Among it&#39;s better features is the fact that there&#39;s the usual high-amount of action scenes within this onethere&#39;s a lot of fun to be had from the rather fun series of scenes throughout here. The opening attack on the parasailer is quite fun with the creature being unseen against the diver and attacking her while the boat trails off and sees the shark coming back causing his escape, a later attack on a group of water-tunnel works that is a fun cheesy highlight of the shark moving through the hoops to set them on fire before biting at the one on the equipment and the centerpiece scene where it attacks a second parasailing group that&#39;s in the different boats leading to the fire-fueled assault on them before taking out the others up on the rig. It&#39;s the kind of appropriately cheesy and high-action scene that works incredibly well, while the other big fun action scene featured that&#39;s nearlymuch fun is the second beach assault that showcases the shark running through the different swimmersit comes into shore and then landing on the beach to attack even more patrons before going out to sea which is quite a fun and enjoyable cheesy scene. Though it&#39;s the typically-clichéd hunting-the-shark- in-open-water finale, the action there is still so much fun with the different luring methods to effectively get the creature out to sea and finally get the creature after them resulting in some fun deaths, a couple of really exciting tactics to combat the shark and numerous suspenseful chases that take place for a big rousing finish. Coupled with some fantastic burn marks with all the radiation scares featured throughout here, these here are quite enough to make this a great entry. Again, the main element that holds this down is the same usual method of problem that usually affects these movies in it&#39;s utterly ridiculous and beyond lame special effects usually associated here. The CGI utilized here is up to their usual atrocious standards with the obvious pixelated images cropping up throughout here but also still in the wrong perspective in the frame to really settle upon any kind of positive interaction when they&#39;re featured and it really does take a lot out of the fun with such a wholly unappealing effort especially since we&#39;re exposed to it from the startit&#39;s mere seconds of the opening of the film. Likewise, the film also struggles slightly here with the government agency aware of the creature,there&#39;s a strong thread in the first half about they being responsible for a cover-up but yet nothing is done about it and is just summarily dropped without much explanation. Otherwise, this one servesanother fun killer shark effort.<br/><br/>Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Language and Brief Nudity.
