Shark Night Blu-ray Review

Score: 47

from 3 reviewers

Review Date:

'Shark Night' features competent filming and acting but lacks the visceral excitement expected, with a subpar Blu-ray presentation not worth recommending.

Video: 55

The 1080p AVC-encoded video presentation of 'Shark Night' offers vibrant and well-saturated daytime scenes showcasing good fine rendering and color pop, but struggles with severe banding, elevated black levels, and directionless lighting, resulting in flat, washed-out night scenes and occasional noise and banding issues.

Audio: 55

Shark Night's DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix offers dynamic range and strong bass that bolster jump scares, but suffers from occasional overpowering music that overshadows dialogue. The front-to-rear balance and surround effects create an enveloping experience, though the sound design can feel unoriginal and excessively loud at times.

Extra: 27

The Blu-ray Extras of 'Shark Night' include a montage of film kills, trivial shark survival tips, insights into animatronic and CGI shark creation, a brief making-of with director interviews, and the theatrical trailer, providing viewers a varied yet concise behind-the-scenes look.

Movie: 27

The Blu-ray of 'Shark Night' disappoints with lackluster CGI, a slow-paced first act, and the absence of its intended 3D effects, culminating in a PG-13 shark movie that neither achieves suspense nor the campy fun of similar genre films.
