There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

The plot is pretty much the same except the sharks appear in sandnados, bouldernados, oilnados, firenados, etc etc. It also gives a nod to Lavalantua, a sister film...like Captain America to Iron Man. We already know the signature ending is something more spectacular than the last one and involves pulling something from the belly of a shark.It is okay to get the aide of plot spoilers (I know I did) in order to know all the cameo characters. I even paused the film to Google lines that sounded familiar...like "Come with me if you want to live." They borrowed from many films: Star Wars, Star Trek, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Wizard of Oz, Terminator to name a few. Characters from all kinds of films and TV shows have cameo roles, I really enjoyed Gilbert Godfrey and watching Carrot-Top get eaten by a shark.Tara Reid is back like the 6 million dollar woman on steroids. I think the most telling line was "We're not here to win an Oscar." At one point the lines got so corny, an actor remarked, "I can't believe I just said that." What national treasures that weren't destroyed in the other three films get tagged in this one.There is some Star Wars connections and lines, (Don't get cocky) but it was from the original Star Wars feature and not the new one.One of the best "So bad it's good" films out there.

Complete waste of time watching this epic failure. special effects by what must be 1st year preschoolers, a script written by monkeys and acting so wooden it could be used to build a frontier town. There's zero continuity throughout, where do all the sharks come from? tornados moving faster than any in recorded history by hundreds of miles an hour? Would rather eat razor blades than ever watch something this bad again

I like the first 2 Sharknado movies. I really don't care how much credibility I lose for saying it but it's a great satire of the so-bad-it's-good kind of movie and the Syfy Channel Original movie, it seems they went for escalation in the second one and... It's my favourite of the series and the third one was just kind of trying too hard. This one however seems to be "Just give us more of that but on autopilot". The plot is that there are stations all around the US to stop Sharknado's from happening but they soon malfunction and the tornadoes soon... Run amok. It's up to Finn and whoever else he happens to be with to save the day. My problems? This is called Sharknado: The 4th Awakens, why is there legitimate drama in this?! There's this entire subplot on Tara Reid being a cyborg, with her father telling everyone she's dead. Oh and the originally funny comedic shark attacks and defenses against them? Yeah well the most that ever gets is a Male Stripper thrusts his crotch at one which hurls the shark in another direction. There are also celebrity cameos that are somehow even worse than in the third movie. Oh and the goddamn references, it's not funny when you can see the references from the very start of the movie - Part of it's set in Kansas and someone wears striped stockings and Ruby Slippers. They also shoe-horn in the line "follow the Yellow-Brick Road!". All in all, just don't - this movie is really boring and considering the celebrity cameos that are in this movie, it's almost devolved into this series being where celebrity careers go to die.

Sharknado 4 (2016)** (out of 4) The fourth film in the series has a company creating a special shield that has prevented any future sharnados. Unfortuantly when Fin Shepard (Ian Ziering) is in Las Vegas the thing breaks down and soon more killer sharks are flying around.You know, I remember when the original movie aired on SyFy and there wasn't a bit of hype. The film turned out to be a pretty good movie as far as creature features go but sadly it became a social media hit and the producers used this to promote the next three films. SHARKNADO 4 is pretty much the same thing we saw in the previous movies but this one here goes even further in the social media game by having countless cameos from famous and semi-famous people.For the most part the film is mildly entertaining and especially the first twenty-minutes in Las Vegas. I thought the film managed to have some fast and fun action and there were some creative shark kills as well. The non-stop parading of cameos was a bit annoying but that was to be expected. The biggest problem with the remaining portion of the film is that there just wasn't anything fresh or original. Ziering and Tara Reid did a decent enough of a job but folks like David Hasselhoff and especially Gary Busey were just wasted.
