JB: (Laughing hysterically).

Shawn: This movie is supposed to be a scary Fatal Attraction like thriller. Well, I can say that the trailer really did scare me, into shielding my eyes and ears from the shear horror of this blatantly bad movie. Swimfan is much like another thriller, Fear. It was called "Fatal Attraction at the prom," and although it was a copycat like Swimfan, at least Wahlberg's creepy performance made it entertaining. Plus "Fatal Attraction at the swimming pool" doesn't really have that special ring to it. "Fatal Attraction at the deep end" is a possibility....

JB: (still chuckling) But you'll never hear anyone say "Let me in the pool!" At the end of this movie, I bet she hangs herself from the diving board with one of those safety buoy lines in the deep end.

Shawn: Alright, my main objection with this movie is that it sounds completely uncreative: Boy meets girl. Girl gives up the booty. Boy enjoys booty but is not willing to trade for steady girlfriend. Girl doesn't like the rejection; ignores the rejection; proceeds to take over boys life. Seduces boy with subtle charms like getting him kicked off the swim team; attempting to kill his girlfriend. Doesn't understand why he won't reciprocate.
Let the trailer speak for itself. This is a movie for teenyboppers who go to see the movie because they think the lead actor is "dreamy."

JB: Or for all those nerds who thought they'd join the swimteam to get hot chicks to hit on them. Yeah man, girls totally dig fully shaved guys... maybe you can share razors! (starts laughing again).
