Peter Benton
"O Último Tubarão" extrapola qualquer falsa sutileza e copia, praticamente na íntegra, o enredo de "Tubarão", o sucesso mundial de Steven Spielberg. Como o nível de picaretagem estava mais alto que o de costume (tanto que no Brasil o filme saiu como um produto da franquia "Tubarão") - e esse filme estava dando mais lucro que "Tubarão 2" -, Spielberg e cia. decidiram processar os italianos por plágio. Como o roteiro é praticamente igual ao da obra de Spielberg, não vamos perder tempo esmiuçando a trama e similares, vamos pra parte que interessa: todo o sangue que a versão americana escondia, esse aqui mostra; se Spielberg (espertamente) quase não mostra o peixão pra criar suspense, aqui - mesmo não tendo 10% dos recursos - Castellari mostra o tubarão e todos seus dentes (de plástico) à cada ataque, mesmo que não tenha efeitos eficientes o suficiente pra isso (mais disso adiante).
