As indie movies couldn’t get worse, Sharknado 2: The Second One directed by Anthony C. Ferrante brings many elements that a movie should not have. The characters like April Wexler (Tara Reid) and Skye (Vivica A. Fox) are horrible in the movie, especially Fin Shepherd (Ian Zeiring Sharknado) who always puts a dramatic tone in his voice where none is needed.
The plot consists mainly of the heroes fighting off flying and sometimes flaming sharks with tools needed for everyday use. These sharks also go about killing random characters and the remaining characters somehow do not obtain PTSD by the end of the movie. The movie also consists of one character replacing her lost hand with a mechanical saw blade. Special effects were about as real looking as a game on the web. The movie’s plot was actually not very interesting or exciting in that matter as one of my fellow staff writers, Joe Hall, states,” I fell asleep.”
The survival skills of the heroes were about as good as a baby in the middle of the woods alone, meaning they did not know how to survive. For instance, a scene in the movie consists of a flaming shark attacking our said heroes then later, in the final fight, one of those heroes put napalm in water guns and set sharks on fire. I would rather swing a butter knife at the shark than set it on fire.
I will never know why anyone would watch Sharknado 2: The Second One without being tortured, forced, and/or punished. I, for one, am not ever going to watch this movie again for fear I might just run away screaming from its horrible attributes. I would gladly rate this movie a very disappointing 1.5/10 with no exception or mercy. IMDb.com has an average rating of 4.7 if you want another opinion.
