Sharknado doesn’t deserve a full review. At a time when I’m only
writing reviews for about one film in eight that I watch, I’m not going to
spend too much time dissecting the finer points of the plot, acting and
direction of this film. The movie is the latest in a long line of terrible
B-Movies commissioned by The Syfy Channel and made by The Asylum film studio.
The films appear to be title first, plot second affairs which owe a great debt
to the B-Movie classics of the 1950s and 60s but lack their antiquated cousins’
charm and ideas. As I can’t be bothered discussing the film in depth I’m just
going to write some sentences that come into my head when I think about this
‘film’. In honour of the movie they will make little sense and won’t interest you
It’s rubbish.
The action begins with characters surfing on a beach without
waves.
Different beaches are used from shot to shot.
In one early scene, it’s obvious that a pod of dolphins are
being filmed instead of sharks.
