I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Blistering performances.

Ive seen this flick a few times now ,on a rainy afternoon when its all thats left to watch and believe me if you want cheese this has the lot,ok its watchable but they have tried to make it into a serious movie and its a joke ,.the beach is basically hit by a massive 100ft tsunami but yet still it doesnt manage to break the venetian blind slats in there lifeguards hut,i imagine there were about 20 people outside throwing buckets of water in the window it was sad .of course this brings with it a plague of goblin sharks who go on a killing spree.enter more cheese and a screaming chick who scratches her leg and carries on screaming at every opportunity she can.in fact to top this all of the main bloke is annoying and you just wanna punch him in his mouth.so there ,its bad ,and as usual with every b movie theres music constantly drownin out the speech ,why do they do that ???overacting ,terrible acting ,but funny trash.

Warren Christie in this?? what the hell? I recognized him from other better stuff since then but his being in this was a surprise (Musta been a low point of low points in his career!)In fact I'd say the the only real surprise.. it's a horrid cheap pathetic "made for TV" pile of crap that some one got suckered into forking over $ to make.I've seen better acting and production quality from a HS play! The premise is beyond absurd right off the bat.. special effects are barely better than the acting skill.. or lack thereof The other reviewer saying 20 min was all he could stand (or she? doesn't matter).. I again got stuck with this sadly being the best thing on one day while on devil child duty.. it was this crap or garbage like "house wives of cardsashians or whatever pathetic mind numbingly stupid crap they are coming up with of that sort.. you know what I mean I'm sure.) Well this was so bad it was a serious question of leaving it on this crap or channel flipping to horrible fake "reality TV".. this movie won.. if anything can be called a winner in this case at all. it sure as hell was not a win for me.Anyhow.. absurd premise + pathetic acting + dare we say direction of some sort.. + somehow managing to waste a budget of 3 MILLION... wait a min.. 3 MILLION??? What in hell did they spend 3 MILLION on with this crap?? Seriously.. more like budget of 3 million.. spent 100K on the production total.. pocketed 2.9 MILLION and used the entire thing as a giant tax write off.. and while we do a lot of good productions in Canada this is not one of them.. but I guarantee someone used tax credits here for the making of this horrible garbage.Skip it.. don't waste your time.. save yourself the mental scarring that is inevitable for those whom watch this!!!! Even Plan 9 from outer space is Oscar worthy in comparison to this crap and sadly several other "things" (calling them movies is an insult to what a movie can actually be) I've been subjected to recently (see my other reviews as warning to save yourselves from such torture!!)

This is by far one of the worst things I've ever witnessed that's called a movie. SyFy makes some bad stuff, but this is the (sour) cream of their crop. The writing is just awful; the worst yet. The characters' acting is blatantly forced and fake. And of course, as in all of SyFy's films, there is some egregious use of sex in the form of half-nude women, who have no reason to be so scantily clad. These girls have no place in these films other than to keep your eyes fixed to the screen for another moment. I enjoy seeing beautiful women, but not in this way; it's disgusting and sad.As for the sharks themselves, they've gone wild on this idea that Goblin Sharks--which are real sharks which live very deep in the real ocean-- are these enormous human-eating predatory fish which roar like lions. This is at least the third or fourth SyFy shark-film I've seen now in which the sharks roar like lions. Sharks don't have vocal chords, so they can't make noises like that. Even giving them the license of this being a creative science-fiction film, it still doesn't fit. None of it does. To make things especially worse and adding insult to injury (on the audience's part), the CGI sharks are just awful-looking; not believable, scary, or anything bordering on entertaining in the least bit. The sharks move so unnaturally, and look as if they were put together on a lazy afternoon by someone who was just learning the ropes on how to make computer-generated images.This film is just terrible. It's not even one of those type of movies that's so bad it's funny type of affairs. This is everything that's wrong with TV & film these days wrapped into a 90ish minute package. Avoid this crap like the plague!

I do get some novelty value out of SyFy's mostly terrible movies. That said, I found Malibu Shark Attack overall too dull and too ridiculous to really be entertained by it. The sharks are the best part of the movie, they don't look great and the way they're utilised gets stale after a while but they do show some menace and compared to the rest of the characters they are relateable. That is because the rest of the characters are stereotypical, made to do stupid and annoying things and not developed well at all. The acting manages to be awful as well, the lead actor is stiff and uncharismatic and the female's damsel-in-distress routine has been seen so many times before and much better, here she has this all looks, no talent aura about her. Malibu Shark Attack looks very cheap, the shark effects are not great at all, some of their features actually makes you wonder whether they are actually sharks, and the editing is choppy so you can enjoy the scenery enough. But these are nothing compared to the effects for the tsunami, I concur about them being one of the, perhaps even THE, least convincing tsunami effects in film, looking as though they were constructed in a major rush. The script is very weak with cheesy one-liners, cringe-worthy dialogue in the exposition scenes and context about the sharks that will make experts exclaim "NO" with their exasperated hands in the air. The story likewise, there are the "obligatory" ridiculous scenes like the tsunami and waves magically vanishing, the shark attacks lacking any sense of horror or suspense(and further suffering from some of the film's worst editing) and the exposition little more with padded filler with dull pacing, clichéd dialogue and characters that prove themselves not to be likable in the least. On the whole, see it somewhat for the sharks but for nothing else. 1/10 Bethany Cox
