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.

Any good scriptwriters alive?

Starting with the fact that the main premise of the film, sharks in fresh water, is nonsense, the script itself was very empty of content. Like any horror films premises don't make sense and I guess that's okay with the genre? I don't know because I am not a fan of horror movies but I do enjoy suspense and that is what made me watch it in the first place but there was little to no suspense. No plot depth. Not much good to it actually. There are no good dialogues, no good character development and you don't really feel any attachment whatsoever to any of the characters so you don't care what happens to them. If that is not a sample of bad scriptwriting, I don't know what is. The cinematography is also plain and quite insipid... But hey, I enjoyed the lovely views of Paris a lot and that's why I gave it a 4 and not a 1.
