Featured reviews
Ok so I don't usually put up reviews unless the movie is bad , and this movie ozzes bad , let's start with the acting the actors are c movie worthy not b movie but c movie worthy . The story to me seems like an 8 year old kid watched jaws and told his daddy the movie maker to make this. The movie starts off with two kids playing in low water and a shark takes one of them fair enough . Fast forward in to the movie there a guy trying to kill the shark with striknen. But the shark nudges the boat and low and behold he dies from his own poison might I ad the CGI is terrible I can't believe this .ade it in to the cinema . Stay well clear of this .
Let's face it, as with any shark movie, you watch it to see the shark chomping on fresh meat. The character back stories are optional. We want to see the shark!
Twenty years ago Alan's brother was killed by a shark. He returns to his hometown hoping to lay the past to rest, and to punch Ron (his uncle, who was supposed to watch them when they were kids, and his negligence in doing so resulted in Alan's brother's death).
The Annual fishing tournament is coming up, but there's no fish. Mayor Wendy Stuart hires an explosives expert to blow up an underwater section of the dam so fish can make its way into the lake. Her brother Will is the first to spot the shark in the lake, but Wendy doesn't believe him and only cares about the tournament.
Alan meets Lisa, who runs the local pub/restaurant, and becomes the romantic interest. I enjoyed the chemistry between them. Ok, so Alan and Ron doesn't get along, but with the shark back in the lake, they realize they have to put there differences aside and work together to bring an end to the shark. Let the hunt begin!
The shark effects are not too bad considering this to be a very low budget film, and it was also nice to see them using real sharks (CGI off course for the attack scenes). I also enjoyed the fact this was shot on location (due to budget constraints) and not by simply using green screens. With some gorgeous aerial shots I could see they made an effort to make this movie look good - and it does.
'Shark Warning' might not be another 'Jaws' but it certainly is better than many other low budget shark movies out there. With great locations and handsome actors allowing for some eye candy, 'Shark Warning' is a very entertaining creature feature.

I found this movie to be ok, not great, but ok for the intended audience age bracket it looked for. If you are one of those people who look for fast and. Scary, which admittedly I do rather, than this probably will not meet your standards but generally it is an ok film. The characters are likeable and the story behind the shark is noticeable so it does work, oh, and there is some jumpy moments so you wont be entirely disappointed if all you want is, again, scares.
The film is not Jaws or Jaws 3 or anything like that but it serves its purpose and offers up a good viewing time for you and the family so, for me, it is at least a quality and steady 5.

Well the storyline isnt but what horrific acting, some actors should be thown to the sharks. An AI voice reading a text comes to mind as a thousand times more realistic as the way some of the actors present their lines, some of the worst expressionless monotonous drones on the big screen ever. It feels like a jaws fan attempted to a movie and they ask all family and neighbors to have a role in it. If you want to waste your time give it a try if you are a sharkmovie affectionado, go for it. For all of us others then do not waste your time with this one,you die of boredom then of a thrill, here... AVOID.
For a movie shot in 6 days, this is well done and entertaining. I like that this Asylum movie has a full story arc and character development. Lake Havasu looks great too! The movie starts 20 years in the past and give the rest of the story context. The shark looks great throughout except for a few shots. But overall, this is a great summer shark movie and it's a nice homage to Jaws. A true Shark movie lover will enjoy this journey. Even though it's a smaller budget movie, it's much better than most movies of this level and even movies that have huge budgets. So give it a chance, sit back with some popcorn, and enjoy it for what it is... a summer shark movie!
