Perfect cast and a good story
Admirable film.
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Ever since this movie was released it's had some sort of weird cult following. This movie is so bad, it's fun. I expect that's the reasoning behind the large following, so I suppose I can understand.I've now made a special listing in my IMDb account for Awesomely Bad Movies. In the last two months I've see three movies that qualify for that directory (so far, this is not the worst one). Oddly, though, in addition to being atrocious they are kind of enjoyable in an abnormal sort of way. I mean seriously, in Sharknado a hammerhead shark flies through the sky and actually lands on a guy's head! How awesome is that? Plus, the dad from Home Alone is in it! Sure, he plays a sleazy alcoholic but, come on, he's the DAD FROM HOME ALONE!!! (RIP Mr. Heard)The writing? Well, how's this for award winning dialogue: "He must have wanted a snack," says a shark bitten Australian dude."Shark's don't like vegemite!" responds witty a lifeguard.Or, the biggest understatement of the movie, exclaimed by Sharnado's lead, Fin (pun intended I'm certain of it), "We gotta get outta here. Quick."Well no shit.When I was browsing Netflix, I noticed there are at least four more Sharnado movies just waiting to be consumed. I haven't seen those yet, but I intend on it. It's winter as I write this, so I'll need some cheering up as the weeks go by.TWO things you'll LIKE about "Sharknado": 1) You'll see things you've never seen before in any other movie, that's for damn sure. 2) You'll no longer wonder what it looks like to kill sharks with a chainsaw.TWO things you'll DISLIKE: 1) If you're a struggling artist, you'll be pissed off that a move like this got funding and ultimately licensed for release. If you're an actor, you'll be jealous of those who were hired on, saying to yourself, "That guy sucks, I could have done better!" And you'll be right. 2) The CGI (and there's a lot of it) is probably some of the worst you've seen. That seems to be pretty standard with these B-horror movies.
This movie is famous for being horrible, so I expected that it would be so bad that I would not be able to watch it. But when I tuned it in on Netflix, I found it very easy to watch. It's a comic book for a person who is in a mood to let go of caring about scientific accuracy and needing literary-style, complete characters. I found it absolutely watchable, fast-paced, and visually solid. This is a modern grind-house beauty. What a pleasant surprise!When a movie is fun to watch and keeps my attention, I am happy. Sometimes I feel I've had enough literary and moral and artistic education. A little pre-adolescent fantasy can be great. I hope you enjoy it, too.
Sharknado is so bad it's good. When one thinks of shark movies, this first movies the first that comes to mind of course is Jaws (1975). One of the biggest critiques of a shark as an antagonist is that the defense is easy: stay out of the water. Sharknado takes that defense away, as natural weather phenomena toss sharks all around Santa Monaco, California making no one safe in the water, on land, and, yes, not even in the air! Everything about this movie is corny. The concept is corny. The acting is awful. There is a forced story line of a divorced father's relationship with his older children. The dialogue is terrible. IMDb lists "comedy" as one of the genres of the movie, but honestly I don't think it was intended to be funny; but some of the events that unfold are so absurd you have to laugh. This is pure science fiction, with very little fact. If you are going to watch this and try to point out how the actions wouldn't happen that way, don't bother. Just about every law of physics, chemistry and biology are shattered with this movie, from sharks surviving inside a tornado to the Macgyver-like weaponry they assemble to combat the sharks and the tornadoes. The special effects are better than The Wizard of Oz (1939), but quite laughable as well. But like the train-wreck you just can't look away from, this movie keeps you watching and entertained.
I had not seen this since it originally aired in 2013. A friend and I watched it fairly recently to get ready for 'Sharknado: The 4th Awakens' I gotta say it was a lot better than I remembered. Syfy now has a hit on their hands. The Sharknado films have now become cult classics and like the 'Super Bowl' for the Syfy channel. Personally, I hope they keep making them. The cheesier, the better. This is where it all began. The film is about a group of people led by Fin Shepard, trying to survive a tornado filled with deadly sharks, AKA Sharknado. Fin, Nova, George, April,Baz, Claudia and Matt try to stick together and survive and come up with unique ways of fighting the sharks. If you love cheesy campy cult movies, you'll love SHARKNADO!!!
