Sharks in the lake of a mountain range in the middle of the USA? It is original, but the explanation that they swam there via the rivers to breed? Ridiculous!
Were also ridiculously bad at Ozark Sharks: The special effects, the plot, the dialogues and every acting performance. Actually, the film can be called very bad overall. There are a lot of things about the movie that are also very strange and illogical. I wondered if some of it was meant to be humor? Most remarkable scene: the granddaughter who reacts very much when her grandmother is eaten by a shark. Almost as strange I find the help of the friendly redneck with the harpoon cannon on his truck. You might come across these kinds of characters in the middle of the USA, but I don't think they are very hospitable.
I understand that the budget for this film will have been very small. But of all the bad lowbudget shark movies, Ozark Sharks really has the most laughable rubber fins. I never found the film exciting. The only reason I kept watching was because I was curious how bad the next scene would be. And indeed, it only got worse. In short, not exciting, not gruesome and a very childlike style of humor. Have I accidentally watched a really bad kids horror movie? These horribly bad special effects will probably make them unable to sleep!

Ozar Sharks (2016) is a trash film ...
It tells about the terror of sharks on a lake in the state of Arkansas ...
This film is very stupid, boring, very bad, acting ridiculous, cheap dialogue, a very CGI effect terrible ...
this film is not worth watching ...

The acting was horrible. I watched half of it because it wasn't worth watching to the end.
Sometimes the simplest solutions are the best ones. Of course that also would mean that you would not have any people dying or any action at all, right? So of course you can either be completely annoyed by this (and many - I mean many! - actions and reactions from the characters in this or you take it with a grain of salt (which I reckon is not in the water, since it's rivers and such).
If you do that and cut it some slack you can have some fun with it. My rating still may be too soft or too nice as I have heard other times before. I leave that up to you to decide. There are some quirks and low budget restraints that let me be a bit more lenient than others I reckon

I don't know why there are such a poor ratings. It's excellent 1980 comedy. I don't think I laughed this hard... well... in my entire life. 1980s effects are ahead of its time! Amazing writing, wonderful acting... I don't think I've ever seen some better movie

- GoofsFor a movie that was set in Arkansas they should have included some Arkansas Razorback stuff. In Arkansas you can't go anywhere and not see hats, signs or something that makes reference to the team.
