Holy hell! Did I just watch something that was totally CG?

Well... no, you did see the source plates right? But yeah, that's pretty awesome effects. Those sharks look killer. No pun intended.

Yeah I should have been more clear. It was a combination of CG and LA but holy crap batman it's seamless! I could see nothing that would distinguish it from all live action. Very impressive.

This is great. It combines two of my favorite things, CGI and sharks.

Fantastic stuff. As has already been mentioned - absolutely seamless. And a genuine LOL moment when watching the LA plate of the actor beating the crap out of the rubber shark (around 2:17)...
