Trivia
Although it may appear that a large number of triathletes are swimming in the Seine, this was not the case. Those scenes were filmed at an open-air water tank in Alicante, Spain. (Famously, the Seine has been deemed too polluted to swim in, something which the French authorities have spent upwards of a billion euros to rectify.)

Goofs
When displaying the 3000 miles journey of the shark, it is shown to have swum up the wrong river, namely the Loire, that flows about 200 km south of Paris. The mayor of Orléans, a prominent city on the Loire, cheekily urged his citizens not to panic if they caught a glimpse of a huge fin, that would just be the lost shark hurrying on its way to shoot the movie.

Ok with a bit of humor about the incompetent Paris mayor

The actors are ok, the script is pretty much as bad as any shark movie, but it lacks explanation about why the shark goes to Paris, why has it tripled in size, why it can self reproduce etc... a bit of logic never hurts.

The main focus is actually the Olympic Games in Paris put in the limelight by the lack of preparation from Paris City Hall. Anne Marivin does a good job playing a completely incompetent, dishonest, ruthless, politically driven mayor of Paris that everyone will recognize easily. The only differences are that she's pretty and she can speak French. Shame she doesn't get gulped by the shark.

Ok movie, worth a watch just to break the rhythm of the Netflix TV series.
