4/10
Not much to it.

Warning: Spoilers
5 kids are partying during spring break somewhere in Malta playing as Mexico. There's 3 guys and 2 girls. Why couldn't it be 3 girls and 2 guys? 1 girl and 1 guy are a couple. The other girl flirts with that very guy. Next morning they decide to "borrow" 2 jet skis. They drive those things like maniacs way out there away from the coast and manage to crash into each other, sinking one jet ski with one guy breaking his leg. So now they are stuck far out there on one jet ski. One guy ends up drowning, the other guy decides to be a tough guy and swim back to shore. He finds a ship but before he makes it there, a shark finds him. That leaves the guy with the broken leg and the 2 girls on the jet ski. There's some obligatory drama between these 3. One of the girls decides to try and fix the engine of the jet ski but by then the shark has also found them and is stalking and haunting them. So the question is, for anyone that actually, cares, which one of these will actually make it out alive.

Shark Bait is a minimalist movie centering around these uninteresting 5 out there in them middle of nowhere. There is not a whole lot of sense of dread with a shark swimming around unless one of these kids does something stupid. Fortunately it's a short movie since it doesn't really offer a lot.
