3/5

Besides the interesting stories of the men who fished off the South Beach piers and from boats for sharks you also get an interesting and enlightening history of the area.

3.5/5

South Beach Shark Club: Legends and Lore of the South Florida Shark Hunters may be a documentary of limited appeal, it is also one that is quite well made with solid cinematography and a definite love for the subject and for filmmaking.

Memories of my Florida before it was taken over by imports. What an amazing story.

South Beach Shark Club is a incredible trip down memory lane, especially for those of us who grew up on Miami Beach. Follow the true adventures of Rene, Shannon, Jimbo (JD) and crew and watch their journey from shark marauders to shark conservationists. It is a fun and captivating film that brought me to tears!

My ‘jaws' ache from yawning. As a massive doc fan - this is down in the depths of the worst. Repetitive & pretty tedious. The constant background thrash metal failed to stimulate & only irritate as much as the content.
