Not every shark movie needs to be compared to Jaws. No shark thriller will ever surpass Steven Spielberg’s iconic blockbuster. However, there are a few shark movies with plenty of thrills for fans. Renny Harlin’s Deep Blue Sea is an exciting B-movie with action, adventure, and killer sharks.

In a secluded underwater facility, Dr. Susan McAlester (Saffron Burrows) is conducting experiments on mako sharks in hopes of finding a cure for Alzheimer’s disease. Looking for more funding, McAlester invites corporate executive Russell Franklin (Samuel L. Jackson) to investigate the experiments. However, the genetically modified sharks become hostile during a routine test and attack the scientists. With the facility falling apart, McAlester and her team must stop the sharks from escaping to the ocean and creating a new species.

Warrior (2011)

A film centered around cage fighting has no business being this heartfelt. Yet, Warrior is an emotional family drama disguised as a sports movie. Tommy Conlon (Tom Hardy) is an ex-Marine who returns home to Pittsburgh to visit his estranged father, Paddy (Nick Nolte, who was nominated for an Oscar for his terrific performance), a recovering alcoholic. Tommy convinces Paddy to train him for Sparta, an MMA tournament where the winner receives $5 million.

Brendan is a high school physics teacher who us struggling to provide for his family and needs the money to save his house. Despite being underdogs, Tommy and Brendan shock the world with their skills, and the two set off on a collision course.
