"Jaws" meets "Blue Crush" meets "All Is Lost", with bikini-clad Blake Lively as a surfer named Nancy, who ends up on a rock in a bay in Mexico with only a wounded seagull and a hungry shark for company. It's not profound and it's not meant to be, but it's a decent piece of summertime escape, and Lively carries it most of the way alone. Fans of geographic displacement will note the effective casting of Australia in the role of Mexico.
