Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
... View MoreTrue to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
... View MoreIt's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

... View MoreFin and April are back, well sort of, they're in Florida with thoughts that the sharknado threat has gone, little do they know. Things are going to get nasty again real soon. If you are watching this you probably know what has come before it. Expect a lot of the same. Laughable CGI, ludicrous concept, ham acting from a lot of performers, lame jokes, a sprinkling of Z-list celebrities, and tongue in cheek humour with very little horror.I personally like bad movies so I knew what I was in for. I don't think this is as strong as the previous two movies but it does throw our heroes into the same situation with different variables. I'm going to give this film 6 - unless something new is introduced in future sequels the series will start to become stale and might get boring, for now it's very lowbrow entertainment which doesn't offend.
... View MoreThe Sharknado films just keep getting cheesier, better and awesomer. Syfy truly has a cult hit on their hands with this franchise! I love that they know it's silly, but they embrace it. From saving the President in Washington DC, from saving everyone at Universal Orlando, and even all the way in outer space, Fin Shepard is back and ready to fight the biggest Sharknado yet. This one introduces David Hasselhoff as Gil Shepard, Fin's father. Keep a look out for all the cameos and references to other great films. Be sure to watch after the credits, because there is a scene that involves the fate of April. If you love cheesy B-movies, you'll definitely love SHARKNADO 3: OH HELL NO!!!
... View MoreWhen I heard about the first "Sharknado" I thought, "Not really. That's got to be awful." It was...but in a fascinating, hilariously black comedy way. Now, 3 films later...I'm still watching, and still thinking the same thing.The title says it all. Eliminating the previous ones, this has to be the most ridiculous, absurd, improbable, and funny film currently making the rounds. It doesn't mess around with explanations or prefaces but immediately plunges into a rain of sharks being dropped on the White House just as Fin is receiving the "highest civilian award" from the president (as well as a golden chainsaw), and proceeds from there to destroy the entire Eastern Seaboard, ending in Universal City in Orlando, not exactly a nice thing to do to one of its distributors, but...fun, anyway.There...the entire plot in one sentence.Sharks in tornadoes aside, most of what happens is no doubt improbable if not impossible, but who cares? Set aside your disbelief and revel in watching celebrities (playing themselves) get chomped.
... View MoreI saw the 1st Sharknado when it first aired and thought it was awesome. I saw Sharknado 2 in the theater with RiffTrax and thought it was surprisingly better! I did not expect a sequel, but this is one instance where I thought the sequel was better than the predecessor. Never did I expect a third.And that third film, was a bad idea.For one thing, the action isn't as fun to watch as it was in the last two movies. That's what made Sharknado so awesome: the action. The deaths that occurred were cool, unexpected, and graphic in a funny way like Evil Dead. But in this third installment, like I said, it just isn't as fun anymore.Also, I feel that the folks at Asylum Entertainment were taking it a bit too far when they decided to have celebrity cameos in this film, which were really unnecessary. I don't have anything against Lou Ferrigno, Penn & Teller, or David Hasselhoff, or any of the other guests; I just think that they were jumping the gun a bit.Moving on to the third and biggest problem is the ending, and what precedes it. April (Tara Reid) is pregnant throughout the movie, which makes no sense. She already has about 5 other kids who are in their 20s, so at this point, why have another kid? I know she and Finn (Ian Ziering) just got remarried in the last film, but still, why? In this rare instance, I actually wanted April to get eaten. She does, but then she's saved and has successfully given birth to this film's real monster: a baby. Great, now we all know how the Sharknado movies are going to get annoying. This baby was literally louder than the film's score. What I hate even more is that Finn decides to name it after his father, who presumably died beforehand.Speaking of, Finn's father, played by Hasselhoff, is an idiot. I like the Hoff and everything, but why does his character "sacrifice" himself? It's clearly not a sacrifice if he's just letting himself die without saving anything!!! This is why I'm not even going to bother with the fourth film. A baby having to team up with our heroic duo is just going to make things awful. Josh Homme, one of my favorite singers of all time, once said that he never bothered with sequels, because they just destroy what was. How I wished I'd listened to that!
