Ecological passion meets unquenchable self-aggrandizement in the beautifully filmed deep-blue-alert documentary Sharkwater.

Mr. Stewart dilutes the movie’s urgency by framing the subject within a “personal journey” format and selling himself as a hunky, sensitive martyr.
As an eco-political inquiry, the film is compelling even if its grounding in scientific fact could be more solid.
Stewart's documentary is seldom less than compelling in its quest to raise international awareness about a situation that is threatening to put sharks on the endangered list.
Probably ranks as one of the most frightening shark movies ever---but sharks are the victims.
This beautiful and urgent eco-doc takes a bite out of the shark mythology made indelible by "Jaws."
