Planet of the Sharks (2016 TV Movie)
2/10
Bad. And boring
24 December 2017
Well, here's yet another rubbish SyFy shark movie. Slightly interesting idea about the ice caps melting & land mass now being underwater. With a few groups of survivors we have shades of Waterworld & Mad Max. However I got completely lost trying to understand the plot about the scientists' ambitious plan to reverse the environmental disaster. Acting is average at best but there are a couple of characters - the South African guy & the female leader with the Deep South accent - who are painfully bad to watch. Usual rubbish CGI sharks. The biggest gaff is that the film is set out in the ocean yet in some scenes you can clearly see waves crashing in with bathers STANDING, waste deep in water, in the background! Yes, it's that bad. Perhaps if they had made this film with tongue in cheek it may have been more watchable, sadly they played it straight.
