UNDER PARIS (The Netflixes) Killer beastie movie about a giant mako
shark that changes its behavior and birthing process due to
environmental pressure (climate change, natch) and travels up the Seine
where it takes up residence in the flooded catacombs beneath Paris to
birth its brood.

Carnage ensues when it uses a pre-Olympics triathlon as a smorgasbord
buffet. Best part of the film was when a barely-disguised eco-kook
stand-in for Greta Thunberg gets ripped to shreds by the shark while
trying to thwart the police and save it. Reminds me of the eco-kook who
was gored to death by the bulls in Pamplona as she was trying to save
them during their famous run.

The movie was decent enough for this genre of flick right up until about
the last three minutes when it devolved into SHARKNADO level of
ridiculousness.
