Synopsis

A man is captured by his enemies and abandoned in the middle of the ocean on a floating piece of debris. If he is ever going to swim back to shore and be reunited with his love interest, he must first defeat the terror waiting for him beneath the waves: a monstrous shark.

Our take

Don’t let the title mislead you: The Desert is an audacious reimagination of Jaws that also takes place at sea. Blending action and romance, this thrill ride of wild car chases and poetic fight scenes epitomizes the unique cinematic universe Çetin İnanç crafted with Cüneyt Arkın in the rip-off era.
