Super Shark (2011)

What makes it different from others?

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Dreadfully Boring

Best movie ever!

This movie is not as bad as a lot of the ratings indicate. The shark is not that will done for a CGI. Why John Schneider acted in this movie is a little beyond me. I sure hope he didn't need the money. I mean he does a good job but this movie is adequate at best. I thought that Gina Gershon was in the movie until I realized it was Sarah Lieving. She seems like a clone of Gershon too me. There is some nice scenery in this movie for both sides of the fence. The shark is a travesty of computer CGI. No shark no matter how evolved can leap on to dry land for prey and get back in to the water. Unfortunately this a typical, all be it better done, SyFy movie with out the really cheesy stuff. A shark big enough to sink a Navy sub by just bashing it, just doesn't exist, except for the SyFy cretins. I rated this a 5 because even with all the faults if was watchable.

Watching this movie in Cinemax, I waited for the credits to see the year it was released: "MMXXI". It couldn't be 2011, I thought, it might be 1991, but XXI is 11. I had wanted to believe that this movie wasn't made in 2011 (by the US), but now I see.It looks like a low-budget film. The shark's graphics look horrible. Even the movement of the waves when the shark was swimming near the boat appears unnatural. And so with the sand falling off the robot-tank's legs, and the blood spatters when the shark eats a person. The story is not that exciting too, and the outcome is quite predictable. Perhaps this film was to somewhat "relive" the 1970s Jaws atmosphere, since the hairdos of the cast were quite old-fashioned. Were the movie personnel trying to limit also their technology?Perhaps there will always be low-budget films such as these even up to these days. With many great movies released in the past years, it's just unusual to see such a movie being released to the public, especially at this time of high innovation and technology.

There are so many horrible shark movies available, one more laughable than the other, and "Super Shark" is right up there with those movies.Lets just start off with the theme song for the movie, already there the red line cut in half and went spiraling downward fast. Just listen to the lyrics, it is so lame.The story in "Super Shark" is as you've seen in many other similar movies. A massively over-sized shark has been released from somewhere far beneath the surface of the sea, where it has been trapped and been waiting to get released. Wait, let's back it up here, shall we? If the shark has been down there for countless centuries or more, how did it survive? What has it been eating? And if hibernating for thousands of years, how fat would it had been required to have been prior to hibernating? Once a movie uses this direction with something being released from underneath the surface of something, you know you are in for something bad.As for the shark itself, well given the size of it, wouldn't it be requiring a massive food source? Why not prey on whales, big sharks and the like? No, it had to go for humans. Why? Well humans are capable of being scared and feeling terrorized, so that must be why this particularly shark turned to feeding on humans. And walking on land? Are you kidding me? That was such an epic fail on a grand level. A shark jumping around on dry land while eating people. Well, now I have seen that too. The scenes where you saw the shark swimming around in water were actually good enough, because the shark looked alright, but once it was on land, it was just a blemish to look at, what an eyesore.The acting in "Super Shark" was actually good enough. It was as to be expected of a movie of this particular type. No award-winning performances here, of course, but it wasn't as bad as in other low-budget movies.The effects in the movie were laughable. I especially enjoyed the US army tank that was walking on four legs, like the AT-ATs from "Star Wars". That was just hilarious. It looked so bad. And to make matters worse, I totally keeled over laughing when it reared up and punched the super shark with its two front legs. That was just epic. Then it was knocked over, and apparently it was made in USA, because it took very little to make it explode. You know how vehicles have a tendency of blowing up almost from just having a door slammed too hard in Hollywood movies. That was just wonderful.I managed to sit through the entire movie. Why? Well because it was so hilarious and so bad. It was so cheesy that it was actually worth sitting through. I wonder how the people that make these movies actually take themselves and their movie projects seriously. Surely this was meant as a spoof, and not an actual serious movie."Super Shark" was as bad as can be on land and the sea...

Worst Movie Ever! Poor directing, poor acting, poor scientific knowledge, poor music to poor special effects this movie has it all. Yes, I understand that the art of a creature feature is of a (almost) poor execution that makes you smile and gives you the pleasure of spotting a few flaws. However, this is simply unforgivable to me. The more sympathetic of you may see a redeeming feature in the fact that the sheer audacity for someone to make such a terrible film will leave you laughing to the high heavens. However, it more than likely that the unintentional comedy will be overshadowed by the realisation that you have wasted your time and you will never get it back. More productive uses of your time could be watching paint dry, watching grass grow and sticking corn back on to the cob. If you do want to see a cheesy creature feature about sharks at least for your own sake stick to mega shark or spend the next 20 minutes after the movie on IMDb warning readers of the perils of taking a chance on a disastrous creature feature.
