... View MoreGreat story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
... View MoreThe tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
... View MoreI love my bad shark movies. I love my great shark movies. And I really love my bad great shark movies. Sadly, this movie falls into none of those categories. I will give some credit to a few of the actors for making the best of what they had to work with, but everything else about this was just bad. You don't come to expect much from the Syfy movies when it comes to special effects, but the scene of the Carrier rocking in the ocean looked so poorly done it was just sad. And I've seen many complaints about the lack of military attention paid to this and yeah, gotta agree. There is usually something to enjoy in these movies, maybe a favorite actor chewing up the scenery or such, but we didn't even get that. I feel they spent the majority of their budget paying Michael Madsen to be in it and for all of his maybe 10 minutes, he kinda phoned it in. Sadly, this will NEVER end up in my to buy and watch over and over pile. EVER.
... View MoreThe epitome of a theatrical joyride! A combination of the original Sharknado with the intensity of Jaws, Megalodon kicked off shark week 2018 with a blast... literally. The movie takes place on the USS Shaw, a real navy ship docked off the coast of California, where Navy seamen fight off the biggest shark to have ever existed and as old as time itself. With Ensign Burkhead (Luke Fattorusso) and Capitan Streeper (Dominic Pace) leading the group, they embark on the toughest battle of their lives. From trying to save their crew from the belly of the beast, to escaping Russian attack, this movie excites a palette of true heroism and rings of becoming a new Syfy classic. Not to mention, Michael Madsen is just downright hilarious in it. 10/10 will watch again!
... View MoreAs a retired US Navy Submariner, this movie has more holes than Swiss cheese. That aside, it's better than a majority of the movies on SyFy Channel. Kudos for actually using a real Sub Control Room, but in a "Bell"?? I'm available to advise your next Navy movie.
... View MoreProbably not even 1% of the Meg budget and I enjoyed it even more. Solid acting and solid script. The story flowed from start to finish and was really fun to see Madsen. Lead cast was solid all around which is pretty rare for lower budget films. Would watch it again.
