... View MoreI expected a campy retro type of film from the title and write up. Instead I just got a bad film with a lot of promise and potential. The shark special effects was Asylum grade, and to be honest, I expected that. The science was horrific bad, although not the worse aspect. By far and away the whole drama surrounding the film was terrible. The dialogue was not entertaining. It was very plain and dry. The film also spends a lot of time introducing characters, building them up, just to turn them into food. All the women in the movie wear a bikini, which was perhaps the only real appeal of the film.The shark itself was comical as it maneuvers on land. But by that point you just want the film to be over. Sarah Lieving who played an investigating agent in "Mega Shark vs Crocosaurus" did it so well she landed the same role for this film. She looks good in a bikini, too bad they didn't write her any decent lines. Produced, directed and written by Fred Olen Ray who did "Bikini Time Machine", "Bikini Frankenstein", "Bikini Royale", "Bikini Royale 2," "Bikini Jones and the Temple of Eros," "Super Ninja Bikini Babes," "Bikini Chain Gang," "Bikini Drive-In", "Bikini Hoe-Down", "Bikini Round-Up", and I think you get the picture.Asylum grade entertainment at best.No f-bombs, sex, or nudity.
... View MoreWhen an oil-drilling machine revives a prehistoric shark buried beneath the sea-floor and begins dining on surfers and residents of a small sea-side town, the locals and the military band together to stop it's rampage before it gets too dangerous.Overall this was an uproariously cheesy and enjoyable effort that manages to contain a large amount that really works. The main element of this that works comes from a healthy cheese level throughout this one that has a lot of different elements to play within here. Starting off with the shark, the ability to make this thing far more dangerous with the ability to walk on land with a very specialized adaption that seems logical and nicely implemented into the overall design is rather nicely done and works quite well here, which is even worked into the film to provide numerous action scenes that are highly enjoyable, rousing and really entertaining. This allows for plenty of good times here with the usual assortment of both short and long scenes. The shorter attacks all come from the really enjoyable surprise ambushes throughout here, from the boat attack on the pleasure divers, the multiple beat-front attacks on the group along the beach an the small military attacks gobbling on the soldiers throughout the beach which manages to give this a really solid based here for some even better long attacks that have a lot of great points about it. The opening destruction of the oil rig that frees the shark is a lot of fun, the military attacks on the beach and out to sea in the submarine are a lot of cheesy action as they attempt to track it before engaging and bringing up the goodness here of the finale back on the beach where not only the shark walking around on land battling the walking tank that is amazingly cheesy in concept and execution. All of these elements here hold this up over the film's few problems. The main issue here comes from the film's rather flimsy science fiction here in regards to the physiology of the shark and it's behavior, which not only explains the ability to hop around on dry land for extended periods without needing to breathe air or the utterly laughable plot device of the radio crackling that doesn't really come off all that well. It just doesn't make any sense and isn't really features known to living realizes to transpose them into a creatures as this. As well, the film tends to run through the attacks quickly while letting the early parts featuring the back-story for a lot of the meat-fodder to be extended to really bring the film to a little lopsided pacing. Combine that with some atrocious CGI work, which looks fine in execution in most cases but because of the action required tends to give itself away, and it's a mildly- flawed and entertaining effort.Rated R: Graphic Violence and Adult Language.
... View MoreThe US military tries to keep a "Super-Shark" at bay, but our leading lady exclaims, "This isn't working!" The shark jumps around on dry land, threatening to eat everyone in sight. This turns out to be lifted from later in the story. One week earlier, an oil rig mishap seems to trigger the madness. Oceanic Investigation Bureau (OIB) marine biologist Sarah Lieving (as Kat Carmichael) suspects oily executive John Schneider (as Roger Wade) caused the shark growth with environmentally unfriendly chemicals...Still sporting his wavy "Dukes of Hazzard" hair, Mr. Schneider notices Ms. Lieving is attractive. "If only I had a mustache to twirl," he says. Minus his southern accent, Schneider sounds a bit like Robert Wagner. Lieving hires "Blue Moon" skipper Tim Abel (as Chuck) to help her find the monster shark. He also notices Lieving is attractive. Schneider works for former "Dark Shadows" reverend Jerry Lacy (as Stewart). A bikini contest is moderated by "Good Times" jive-taking Jimmie "J.J." Walker (as Stevens). Not dynamite.*** Super Shark (12/8/11) Fred Olen Ray ~ Sarah Lieving, John Schneider, Tim Abel, Jerry Lacy
... View MoreThis movie is not as bad as a lot of the ratings indicate. The shark is not that will done for a CGI. Why John Schneider acted in this movie is a little beyond me. I sure hope he didn't need the money. I mean he does a good job but this movie is adequate at best. I thought that Gina Gershon was in the movie until I realized it was Sarah Lieving. She seems like a clone of Gershon too me. There is some nice scenery in this movie for both sides of the fence. The shark is a travesty of computer CGI. No shark no matter how evolved can leap on to dry land for prey and get back in to the water. Unfortunately this a typical, all be it better done, SyFy movie with out the really cheesy stuff. A shark big enough to sink a Navy sub by just bashing it, just doesn't exist, except for the SyFy cretins. I rated this a 5 because even with all the faults if was watchable.
