Great White is a 2021 Australian survival horror film written by Michael Boughen and directed by Martin Wilson. It stars Katrina Bowden, Aaron Jakubenko, Tatjana Marjanovic and Kimie Tsukakoshi.Michelle Minase is attempting to fulfill her grandfather's last wishes by scattering his ashes on a remote reef off the Australian coast: the site of shipwreck of which he was the only survivor. Accompanied by her husband Joji, she engages charter pilot Charlie Brody to fly her out there. Along with Kaz Fellowes, Charlie's girlfriend/business partner, and Benny, the company cook, they travel to Hell's Reef. However, what should have been a pleasant afternoon's picnic and commemoration of Michelle's grandfather is marred by the gruesome discovery of the body of a shark attack victim. A freak accident leaves the five travellers stranded in a life raft 150 kms offshore. And then, as night falls, an 8 metre great white shark starts circling the raft...Not to be confused with the 1980 Italian Jaws rip-off The Last Shark, also known as Great White. Or with the American rock band. | |

Extremely Short Timespan | |
| Great White / int_281de59f | comment |
Extremely Short Timespan: The main action takes place over three days. Even including the teaser, the entire film only covers approx. five days (after finding the body, Benny estimates the man has been dead for about a day and a half). | |

| Great White / int_5beef860 | comment |
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Jijo is afraid of water, making being stranded in a small life raft 150 kms offshore, with a great white shark circling, pretty much his worst nightmare. | |

I Don't Like the Sound of That Place: Hell's Reef. It's official name is Imperious Reef, but the locals have been calling it Hell's Reef since the 1950s when a pearl lugger was wrecked there, and only one member of the 18 man crew survived. | |

Nautical Knockout: The woman in the teaser climbs on to the yacht to escape the shark, but the fraying rope holding the boom snaps and the swinging boom smacks her in the head: knocking her out and knocking her back into the water. | |

Imperiled in Pregnancy: Kaz tells Charlie that she is pregnant on the beach at Hell's Reef. It is immediately after this that the seaplane is sunk and the group finds itself trapped in a life raft being circled by a Threatening Shark. Needless to say, all of Charlie's protective instincts kick into overdrive. | |

Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: During the climax, the second shark chases Kaz into the shipwreck. When it gets wedged in the structure of the wreck, Kaz is able to dislodge a broken beam so that it falls and impales the shark. | |

Underwater Kiss: They don't actually kiss, but Charlie and Kaz lean into each other and touch foreheads underwater just before they part to attempt to deal with the second shark. Later Michelle kisses Kaz to transfer air to when she is trapped in the shipwreck. | |
