“For a b-grade movie this is an OK one” At the beginning concept of a city getting filled with water due to heavy flood and the sharks getting us thru there is believable and a very good concept, imagine that really happens what are we going to do, but sharks in tornado I don’t dig that cause tha ... t is impossible. I thought before seeing this movie that it was a spoof movie of all those shark movies like JAWS, Deep blue sea etc., but it turned out to be a serious shark movie with some parts in the movie that are not believable. Tornado itself can be made as a tragic movie so imagine we top it up with sharks and call it Sharknado. It’s an ok movie for a one time watch but don’t expect to be all wowed by it Notable Acting Cassandra Scerbo famous for her movie such as Bring it on Ian Ziering My Rating 6/10
It's kind of odd that _Sharknado_ is the movie that brought ridiculous Creature Feature B-movies into the public awareness. Especially seeing as it's been going on since like... The '50s, minimum... Wish it had have been a better movie that hit the zeitgeist though... _Final rating:★½: - Boring/d ... isappointing. Avoid where possible._
I love corny shark flicks... I mean sharktopus is one of my faves. But what the ever living hell is this? It had promise... They made lots of sequels so somebody liked it. ...
**Disconnect your brain and embrace the insanity. You will thank me.** Sharknado is terrible in every way, and the result is pure joy! Sharknado has some of the worst CGI, acting, and plot, but it's a blast from start to finish. I never knew how much I needed to see sharks raining from the sky ge ... tting chainsawed by B-list actors until I saw this movie. Trust me, this movie is best watched with friends ready to laugh at the ridiculousness of a tornado of sharks.
