Dom Nickson Spoiler Alert!!! It's really nothing but a bunch of recycled footage of scared people at the beach and the shark attacking on the surface. Like Jesus even I could get better shark footage in my bathtub with a robotic shark! Seriously these shark attacks are absolutely fake. The only 2 good attacks were when the guy jumps into it's mouth and the guy drives right into it's mouth. These two were really the only good moments in the whole movie. The rest was an utter disappointment, the lead girl wasn't even acting it looked like she was on the verge of laughing the whole time and it gets annoying pretty quick. I also like how it ends because it uses the quote of Liam Neeson in Star Wars Ep. 1 "There's always a bigger fish!" I give it a 2 out of 10 because of those two funny shark attacks and the brilliant ending.
film_afl I know that "dangerous animals-movies" is a bad genre in general but sometimes everyone involved at least try. Not this time...Not ONE scene in this movie really makes sense, i honestly think this was intended to be a joke. First of all it is basically a porn-movie between the actual porn-scenes, kind of the "foreplay" all the time and all the "actors" look like if they were in that business prior to this movie. Quality-wise it just isn't more skillfully done than that concerning acting and all round atmosphere and setting..But since it is supposed to be something else it just doesn't work, it is your total "turkey"-movie. Already in the first scenes this became rather obvious when the cigar-smoking captain comes in and with the dubbed voice sound like the cartoon figure "Popeye" or something. The museum janitor that sounds like if he is dead drunk (perhaps he was, maybe that made it funnier to participate in this farce...) Then when Ben (Barrowman) is given coffee at the bar in the beginning he is served by one lady in the first angle but in the second it is another lady (you can tell because in the second angle she isn't wearing that white pearl arm brace any longer...) And then when the nude couple are taking a swim (not only that obviously) and the Meg appear to tare the tiger shark into pieces it later lies on the beach without as much as a scratch... Then on to the pot-smoking computer-supervisors or whatever it is...These are just a couple of scenes that no one else seem to have commented on. This movie could be entertaining as comedy indeed but if you think of watching it to be enriched (or scared) in some way, just forget it. If the crew attempted to make horror, too bad for them, this movie is as crappy as they come, i cant even understand who would produce mind-poison like this. Actors who cant find the word "actor" in a dictionary and just want to fool around and use nasty language it seems like. The plot? No, don't even think about it...The scriptwriters must have come up with this in one afternoon at the most. As i said, not one scene is flawless but others have commented enough on most things so i wont do it too. Another strange thing is that in the Shark Attack movies the sharks have also started to sound like an entire lion zoo... Not one character is something else than a complete caricature. Should you give this movie a miss? To quote one character: ABSO-F-CKING-LUTELY!
Michael Gomez When an unusual Shark tooth is found off the Mexican Coast, 2 researchers band together with a. . . lifeguard?; to rid the world of the gigantic menace it belongs to.This is the kind of B-Grade Horror you have to laugh at. With lines like the one quoted above, and acting that will make you clench your teeth; you just know you're in for a night of hilarious pain. Kind of like when you hit your funny bone.After my wife & I first watched it we turned to each other, at the end of the film, and knew we had to screen it to other people. Thus, 'Megalodon Night' was born. A large group of close friends attended the B-Grade fest and it was one of the funniest experiences I have ever shared with a film.Direction: 2/10 (David Worth...wait, didn't he do 'Kickboxer'? What happened, dude?) Cinematography: 2/10 (David Worth again. Give him a break, he was tired from directi...never mind) Editing: 2/10 (Kristopher Lease seems like he should stick with TV series) Acting: 2/10 (John Barrowman should get an Oscar for keeping a straight face during those lines) Dialogue: 2/10 (Scott Devine & William Hooke basically ripped this off a book called 'MEG') Sound: 1/10 (These guys definitely didn't put in any overtime. Absolutely awful mix-down) Effects: 3/10 (I'll give the Special Effects team something for effort) Art Direction: 3/10 (At least the rich snobs looked like proper tools. Great job!) Costumes: 4/10 (The tuxedos on those snobs was the icing) Music and/or Score: 3/10 (Ashley Miller's sound couldn't even be heard due to poor effort from the sound department)Total Score: 24/100I don't want to spoil what could potentially make you choke as you laugh so I'm not going to mention the Shark looks like they had a budget of $5 for CG. Anyway, if you can bare it, it's a great piece of awfulness. All I can suggest is to do what I did. Make a night of it and just enjoy it for what it is . . . or what it isn't for that matter.
Christian Baer (Gullytrotter) When I decided to watch this flick, I already had a hunch that it would stink. There were enough hints in the Web and from people I know personally to tell me that. But I didn't care. The Megalodon has somehow fascinated me ever since I learned of its (former) existence as a child. I always wanted to see this giant shark in comparison to a human - not just as a drawing in a book.Well, this movies really does stink. And with that I mean just about every aspect. The dialogs themselves and the related editing are of a quality you find in cheap porn movies. After just about every dialog-scene you expect to see a girl go to her knees for (the obvious). The voices sound pathetic and some actors even seem to have trouble remembering their single-liners!This is the kind of movie where you repeatedly want to shout "Bull!" at the screen. The actions and reactions of the characters are just too pathetic, sharks bitten in half by the giant monster shark are later seen in one piece lying on the beach and so on. In many cases the actions of the victims are likely to cause an accident even without the shark around (like driving a speedboat while drunk).The one pretence I had (seeing Megalodon in comparison with humans) wasn't fulfilled. The special effects were just too corny. They might as well have used scenes from Futurama. I mean really, nobody would have noticed. There were so many scenes taken from other footage like documentaries. The lighting and colour balance was completely different, but what the heck? Nobody will notice. Or did they?Normally, I don't really care much for boobs in movies, because they are usually there to distract from the flaws. In Shark Attack 3 the flaws are big enough to make the few seconds with boobs and pretty girls the only scenes worth seeing. And I can hardly believe I just wrote that!At first, I couldn't really understand, why there are so many reviews stating that their authors laughed throughout the whole movie. When I think about it, I can understand them quite well now. I mean, where else can you learn so many unique things? Here is a rather incomplete list:Megalodon is a morphing shark that can change its size depending on what it wants to swallow, like a person, a boat or whatever.Although Megalodon's teeth look nearly exactly like the teeth of a great white (apart from the size), a crappy digital photo of one baby tooth (without anything to compare its size to) is enough to let one (and only one) paleontologist identify the animal within a second.The first thing every paleontologist does during a "non-break" at night is read the shark forum.Megalodon could survive in the very dark and rather foodless deep sea trenches for at least 1.6 million years, even though all evidence makes Megalodon a fast-swimming predator that hunts close to the surface by sight when its prey is near and has a metabolism to match (Megalodon is considered to be one of the Lamnidae, which is the same family as the great white and mako shark).If you take a photo of a shark's tooth, it doesn't matter that you are holding and covering it on one side with your fat thumb. The camera will still get the complete tooth.Digicams only catch the main motive, none of the background.Text in the internet is always in big coloured letters.Divers take along their dogs so they can play Frisbee with them on the beach after diving.If a creature which is supposed to be extinct suddenly shows up (thus not being extinct and an actual scientific sensation), even the scientists will want to kill the animal (with a torpedo).Mini-subs that from the outside look about the size of a portable toilet have enough room inside for two seats, a place to put on a diving suit, an air lock and even room to spare for a small BBQ-party.Submarines are controlled by game pads.Fitting an unarmed mini-sub with a torpedo-launcher that could sink a battleship is a small task for an otherwise boring afternoon.A 20m shark can attack a 100m superyacht making it shake as if it would capsize any second, although the difference in weight between the fish and the boat is like an ant kicking a brick.When your yacht is being attacked by a giant monster shark, the first thing you'll want to do is go outside and climb up to the slippery places without any railing, just to make sure you fall into the water the next time the shark gives the boat a thump. If for some reason you don't fall into the water, JUMP! After all, the water is much safer than a giant yacht if a hungry shark is around.Mexico is somewhere in south-east Europe.Attacking sharks make weird creepy sounds with their voice.Girls that have to be saved from the giant shark have been rubbed down with olive oil to make them too slippery to save.A torpedo that could sink a battleship blows the shark and the sub it was launched from to kingdom come while leaving a human who is close enough to smell the shark's fish-breath uninjured (apart from a good shake down).If you want a boring laugh, go watch it. The fact that one dirty pick-up line is the only thing that ever got known about this movie should give you a hint. Even the synopsis on the DVD-cover is completely wrong!
