Corrected entry: If these sharks are strong enough to open metal watertight doors, how come they couldn't break through the fencing without sinking the place.

Corrected entry: Sharks are attracted to the smell of blood not the sight of it or something that looks like it. So in the opening scene when the wine is knocked over into the water it shouldn't be a big deal.
Correction: The shark is attacking the boat before the wine spills over (in fact it causes the bottle to topple), it doesn't think that the wine is blood. This shot is really just for effect.

Corrected entry: At the very end of the movie, when the shark is getting out through the fence, it (the shark) backs up. Correct me if I'm wrong, but sharks can't swim backwards, no matter how much gene therapy they've had. Swimming backwards would cause water to surge into their gills, thus killing them.
Correction: Well, the characters comment earlier in the film about the super-sharks swimming backwards (when they recoil from seeing the gun), so its safe to assume that their modifications have given them the ability to do this.

Correction: The lower part of the fence is titanium. The whole point of the movie is that the mega-sharks are intelligent enough to sink the facility so they can break through the top part of the fence, made of steel.
