Wow just wow - how can the acting be so bad from everyone concerned in this? Surely there are some good actors in Hollywood who would act for peanuts or nothing just to get their names known? I surmise the actors; and I use the term loosely in this, have either given the producer a few... ahem... casting couch favours or are family members!
Michael Madsen - well what can we say but that syrup was just a laugh-a-minute especially when he is on the phone it literally starts moving back exposing his real grey hair underneath I couldn't stop laughing and sorry Mike but when you are past your best it is time to give it up and you are 10 years past your best but he was obviously thrown into this calamity just to add a name to the cast list! He actually looks like my gramps with a dodgy black syrup, some dreadfully bad blusher on his cheeks and the turkey neck of doom. Watch the end sequence closely - he is so frail he cannot put his sunglasses on with his hands shaking or was he inebriated? Either way what a poor old sod, i actually started to feel sorry for the old fella, how very, very embarrassing to go out in your career this way - better to grow old gracefully!
As for the movie? Well it is Asylum and a tv movie so you should really not expect much and try and review it in that context but even so the shark effects were pretty basic. The problem is the acting, it really takes away a lot from the movie and makes it hard to watch and just adds another Shark Turkey movie to the seemingly endless list!

This was very silly LMN movie - I felt sorry for the shark!!
Please note:
1. Michael Madsen needed a hair color touch up - his grey roots are clearly visible.
2. Michael madsen needed a cough lozenge - he sounded very horse.
3. Just a silly plot - sinking island?
4. This reminded me of JAWS in the 1970's (I saw it then) but that scared me - this one made me laugh.
Have many drinks before viewing - REQUIRED!!!

Horrible watch, most likely will not watch again, and do not recommend.
This is one of those 2019+ movies that looks like it was made in 2013. While a lot of the movie has some modern cinematography over the ocean, the cg shark alone looks like it is left over effects from another movie.
While I think the ladies actually did really well for what they were (clearly) given, but the script is so horribly structured and written that it literally doesn't make any sense at points, and really looks like 3-4 movies were cut together.
While Michael Madsen can act, he was very clearly given some weird direction. He seems more like a crazy villain explaining his mad plot rather than a concerned father. Literally the same voice for "I hope you, my daughter, are okay", and "you better save my daughter, or I'll kill you".
The guy on the boat alone doesn't make sense no matter how you cut it. He speaks in some other worldy alien affect. You could literally cut him from the movie entirely and it would make more sense, even if you didn't caption the responses over the phone.
What a lot of this comes down to is a lot of 2 hot girls in danger, either trying to avoid, outrun, or fight a shark.
I'm not saying some people aren't going to enjoy this, just know what you're getting into with this one: and I did my part to tell you not to watch it.

Everything about this movie is horrible. The acting is absolutely awful. The camera angles are confusing and awkward. The dialogue and emotion/lack of emotion is terrible. I cannot stress enough how bad this movie is... but I had to finish watching because it was hilariously stupid.
I had such a good time watching this , best entertainment I've had in a while .
Where to start ?, Well Michael Madsen for one , what was with the birds nest on his head ?
And what was he staring at when he was on the phone ? I thought that his eyes were going to pop out of his head .
I was more scared of him than I was of the shark !
Next, the daughter , was she smoking something throughout ? , and you know what ? She probably could have caught the shark in her mouth eventually ,because she never closed it !
From terrible camerawork , to terrible acting , to terrible dialoge , this was one hell of a great watch !
Pour youself a large drink and enjoy !

Sarah: Right now, I need you to look at the bright side!
Meghan: Yeah? And what is that?
Sarah: We're not dead yet.
Meghan: We're just stranded on an island. A shark's trying to hunt us, the sea plane can't find us. And now the island is flooding!
Meghan: What next? The shark's just gonna turn into a tornado?
[This is an obvious, funny reference that The Asylum, who made this film, also made the series of Sharknado movies]
