CGI sharks make mincemeat out of old college buddies in a predictable thriller that marks the last performance of venerated actor Julian Sands. The Last Breath never tries to be anything more than a low-budget indie film with the usual slew of underdeveloped, one-note characters. That said, Swedish director Joachim Hedn uses his extensive experience in the underwater genre to make the experience less superficial and more cinematic for the buck. The Last Breath deserves credit for being well-shot and edited but falls short with a generic script that lacks any surprises. You can easily guess who won’t be making the boat ride back to shore.
