Shark Night? Well that's a bit drab, isn't it?
Sharkpocalypse Sharkening: Shark A Shark.
See? Meow there's a title with some pep.

I’ve become immune to bad shark movies having watched one too many Asylum produced efforts over the last few years. It is for this reason that Shark Night was not quite as offensive as it probably should have been. It is unquestionably a bad movie yet the surprising thing is that it tries, but ultimately fails, not to be. It attempts to develop characters that would normally be one-dimensional but the problem is the actors are incapable of delivering convincing emotional and rounded performances.
Yet the bigger problem with Shark Night is that it is so pedestrian. It is almost as if it is a family friendly edit for a more traditional B-movie. This means the film fails to deliver…

I want to hurt the people behind such totally unoriginal, audience insulting piece of laughable effects crap!

Another shark movie. Another attempt to beat Jaws. Another 3D movie. Another failure! Just stay on land you idiots.

Its a bit rubbish and the effects are poor to go with some awful performances. Not far off being a right old sci fi channel octopus vs three legged shark type movie. Its fun enough though and not demanding in the slightest.

I went into this expecting it to be bad but god almighty that was awful. Everything about this is just a bunch of arse; the acting is awful, even Sara Paxton whom in the film I saw before this, The Innkeepers, was fantastic. The effects are laughably terrible, not only do the sharks look like dung but according to the visual effect artists they can swim at speeds of around Mach 10. The pacing and narrative is surprisingly incredibly slow for a film you would expect stupid excitement from. Overall, there is not too much to say other than avoid like the plague.

Sara's family has a bitchin' vacation home on a lake island. She invites her dumb college friends to go there for the weekend to do college kid stuff, like water ski and jet ski and other fun water-type activities. But, it turns out that the lake surrounding the house has big ass sharks that are hungry and pissed and can swim faster than speedboats. That's the plot.
The first thing these kids do after getting to the cabin is take the black guy wake boarding. This sounds really cruel but it turns out that he can wake board like a champion. He's all skiing one handed and doing flips and stuff and then he gets his arm bitten off by…
