Roboshark
What starts off as a typical day on the streets of Seattle soon becomes a terrifying bloodbath, when a great white shark devours an alien space probe…and ROBOSHARK is born. The U.S. military comes after it with guns blazing, but it’s the power of social media that puts an ambitious newscaster and her tech-savvy daughter ahead of everyone else in the race to stop the destruction.

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Pretty Good
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Roboshark is a comedy horror film in 2015. It tells the story of a shark that accidentally eats a stone from outer space, it turns out to belong to an alien from another planet, it turns into a roboshark, in another place a woman who works as a reporter, helped by a daughter and the cameraman, they started hunting roboshark. This movie is ridiculous, weird, and has a lot of very annoying characters plus very bad acting ... Making this movie really bad.
You know I watched this movie and I was just floored by how well it was done considering that a movie like this hasn't been made or done before it's pretty impressive to see it on the full screen.Not many people seem to care about the movie in general they all think its crap and a waste of people's time to watch it.. My advice is if you don't like it why don't you go out and make your own movie or something instead of bashing or criticizing someone else's work?SyFy movies have done and released some exceptional B-movies and they will continue to do so... Just like The Asylum will continue to make mockbusters and will never ever lose any money or sleep on how well their movie did.I give this movie the full 10/10 just for the creative aspect. One scene was a very sad moment where you could see how sad the shark was.. Me and my wife love that scene... Well done SyFy... Hope to see a sequel soon
Dear IMDb, I saw this movie. I was told this was a comedy through the voices of actors playing the roles of characters, is that breaking the fourth wall? Yeah, it was not a comedy, by the way. Why does stuff happen? Is there some deeper mechanism behind our day to day decisions or is there no such thing as conscious thought? This movie is about a city where some people live, but when the Roboshark shows up, less and less people live in the city until the movie's end. People will do that. Uh, this movie Okay, what do you want to know? Do you want to know some trivia? Do you want to know who is in this movie? Do you want to know my opinion or are you just being polite?
The good news is that of the SyFy shark movies, Roboshark is one of the better ones, and among the more tolerable SyFy outings. The not so good news is that that doesn't stop Roboshark from not being particularly good or great.Roboshark is one of SyFy's least amateurish-looking movies, with nice scenery, slicker-than-usual photography and a design for the Roboshark that has some menace and is one of SyFy's cooler- and- less-cheap- looking. The Roboshark is also well-utilised and unlike a lot of SyFy creatures has a personality, a threatening one rather than being too goofy that it brings unintentional humour. The movie clearly knows what it's trying to be and which audience it's aiming for, and in the process doesn't try to do too much while not playing it too safe either, and contains some clever inside jokes and hilarious one-liners. There are also fun performances from Laura Dale and particularly Nigel Barber, the only ones in the cast who show that they can still have fun without overacting, as well as some spirited and confident direction.On the other hand, the rest of the cast wildly overact and in the case of the extras and Matt Rippy to an embarrassing degree, something that really hurts the tension. The characters are barely developed and some are annoying, which makes them difficult to root for, the movie drags a little in the exposition moments and some of the more dramatic parts veer on turgid and ham-fisted. The story is well-intentioned and clearly knows what its aim and audience is, but the silliness gets very over-the-top sometimes that it gets ridiculous (like with the bacon) which gets in the way of generating suspense or tension, and it gets tiring towards the end. Aside from a catchy opening, the movie is generically scored too with not an awful lot standing out as memorable, and while the opening is fun and quite scary the climax of the movie is predictable and rushed..All in all, not great but one of the better and more tolerable SyFy shark movies. A decent guilty pleasure-type movie if you will. 5/10 Bethany Cox
