What are the best shark movies that aren't Jaws?

In your opinion what are the best shark movies besides Jaws?

For me it comes down to these movies.

3. The Shallows

2. Deep Blue Sea 1999

1. The Meg

Honorable mention Bait 2012 it had a cool concept.

Nothing specifically regarding sharks comes to find. Other fish movies though? Sure.

Duh, Sharknado 47....

No but seriously The Shallows,

I enjoyed Deep Blue Sea, pretty decent for b-movie about sharks. Orca is also kinda fun but it's about a killer whale not sharks still fun though.

Agreed. This movie got slated hard, but it's pretty underrated.

Beautiful music score.

Open Water.

Deep Blue Sea and certainly not the sequel.

The Meg is arguably the best shark movie since Jaws. I was expecting an intentionally corny, dumb shark movie like Sharknado and I was totally blown away by the quality of the film.

No, I'm not saying it's Oscar-worthy or anything, but the combination of "good-but-not-too-good" acting, writing, plot, and production values really sort of blew me away.

After The Meg I'm going to go with Deep Blue Sea for it's over-the-top tone combined with the sheer corniness of it all. Also Thomas Jane, LL Cool J, and Samuel L. Jackson FTW.

Agree The Meg was a pleasant surprise I'm looking forward to the sequel and the Deep Blue Sea is a 90's B movie classic.

I'm going to have to watch this one again. I remember all the hype around it back in the day about this movie because it was based on a true story.

Amen the sequel was a disgrace I couldn't even get past 20 minutes of it.

The Meg is really good, I remembered seeing it in theaters and my nephew liked it.

@strategyfn: Going to give it a ago before my Amazon Prime subscription expires at the end of this month,

@omegamaster: Deep Blue Sea is probably a film best watched at night, around 7pm, after dinner.

If you mean the second Deep Blue Sea, good luck,:) because it is terrible.

Yeah, I finished watching Deep Blue Sea just then. Overall, it's a good film. Some scenes were dumb and shame about the CGI

When i heard about Jason Statham being in "The Meg" fighting a Shark, i instantly saw him performing his kewl karate-moves on a shark...wtf?

Can´t say i really love Statham, i mean he is playing "The Transporter" everywhere since "The Transporter", in every movie i got that feeling its "The Transporter" again while every movie he does is actually just another "The Transporter" so all of his movies are all the fu**ing same just as like Liam Neeson is making the same movies over and over again while playing the same guy over and over again since "TAKEN" ("96 Hours" the title in some european countries).

So i still haven´t seen "The Meg" coz the idea of Jason Statham fighting a Shark with karate-kicks and fancy mma-moves must rather be an awkwardly stupid experience...even that Statham in fact probably just fights the shark the old-fashioned way with a goddamn harpoon and a fu**ing snorkel.

There's like two of those 47 Meters Down movies have no idea if they're any good. Never saw any of those Sharknado movies and have no desire but if they're worth watching someone chime in.

Not a shark movie but whatever, that one where the woman is trapped in house and a hurricane brings flood waters in and there's a nest of alligators eating everyone trying to rescue her, whatever that was called **Google** It was "Crawl", I enjoyed it.

And that one about those people who went snorkeling and got left behind and they advertised it like "based on a true story" so I am thinking they must survive because why else would they take all this artistic liberty telling a full length movie about trying to survive in open sea with sharks circling them only for them to die... but then they die so I'm like "so the part about them being being left out at sea and dying was real everything else was made up?" Bullshit stupid movie.

I love those trashy nazi-zombie flicks....NOW WITH SHARKS!

No need to google for that last one...it´s my own creation of a fake movie poster.

Jaws was a good movie but nothing that followed since deserves comparison.

JAWS "was" a great movie, but it is actually dead-boring today AND by todays standards...but probably just in my opinion maybe.

Ever watched some good ole 80s horror movies lately? With the dumb victim sneaking through empty dark rooms and around creepy corners for half an hour with actually nothing happening?
