Watch Frankenfish For Free

Sorry, this movie sucks

Pretty Good

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

I sat down and watched this movie because... while I didn't like movies such as Sharknado, they entertain me enough to just laugh at the idiocy of it all. Frankenfish was meant to be serious... Frankenfish, that was meant to be taken seriously.The plot of course is your standard "something in the swamp, people have to kill it." type thing while also hunters are going around trying to hunt whatever is in the water. Okay this does make way for a decent set-up and it does try and build suspense but there is just one problem, They called their movie Frankenfish. This means we expect either a zombie fish on a rampage or a fish genetically altered on a rampage. So all this build-up is for nothing other than time filler.The only thing I kind of liked in this movie is the odd funny attack/death scenes. Think something can top that guy chainsawing the shark in half in Sharknado? Well you should wait and see the way the final Frankenfish dies.Although with this said there isn't anything else that holds the film together. The effects are bad, the acting is amateur and the rest of it is a chore to sit through. So if you want to see a movie with a title as stupid as Frankenfish for a laugh then this probably isn't for you but if you just have 80 minutes to pass over with this as your only DVD option, then this could be worth a look.

Frankenfish is probably one of syfy's worst movies to date.There is absolutely no plot what so ever, except for the "mutant fish killing people" if that can be considered a plot. A man is found horribly mutilated, investigators are sent in, and are killed off one by one. Most within a 20 min time period. The filming is mostly in the dark and makes it hard to see everything, especially the few shots of the fish in the water, it looks mostly like a blob. Also, most of the main characters are killed randomly and very quickly in one or two scenes. The characters are very poorly developed as well. The fish themselves are never filmed for more than 5 seconds, due to the horrible special effects. Just another Syfy creature feature (I created a profile JUST to review this movie, if that tells you anything)

This movie was fun. I love killer fish movies. I have watched allot of them,from Jaws to Piranha 3D. The idea that something is in the water and it wants to kill you intrigues me. The film is about genetically enhanced Snakeheads who attack houseboats in a swamp in Louisiana, and its up to medical investigator Sam Rivers and the residents to kill these creatures before they become fish food. I loved this movie. Its actually better than the new film Piranha 3D in my opinion. Its a nice little creature feature. My favorite scene is when a guy kills one of the monsters and cuts out its heart and then puts it on a grill and eats it. I do have some complaints. Most of the film is dark and I couldn't see what was going on. I hated the boyfriend character, all he does is sit around, whine and complain, but I liked when he got drunk and said a bunch of random things. If you like films like Lake Placid, Anaconda and Jaws you will enjoy this film.

Oh come on you whiners, grow up ! This movie has a big B written all over. What is the point comparing it to first rate blockbusters ? If one takes it for what it really is, one gets a hour and a half of very decent entertainment.So instead of stating the obvious (cheesy script, second-rate acting, low budget sfx, etc), I'll try to summarize what made this flick worth watching IMHO:a bunch of picturesque bayou weirdos (especially the white rasta crack-head and shell-shocked viet vet) pretty good creature design and animation a couple of imaginative death scenes amusing means of getting rid of the nasty critters as it has been already pointed out, black heroes a pace that (barely, but still) allows the action to stay ahead of plot inconsistencies decent comic relief character good lighting and general image qualityAll in all, a very decent B movie.
