Movies like Under Paris

“Under Paris (2024) is a 2020s French action-horror that stages a municipal-scale crisis through genre spectacle. It frames a grieving scientist confronting a riverborne monstrous shark as Paris risks international bloodshed, using high-contrast chiaroscuro and brisk kinetic staging to fuse personal trauma with widescreen peril. Under Paris insists that private grief becomes civic risk, forcing spectacle to answer ethical urgency.”
