Shark Attack 2

There is a part where the woman and the "marine boy" are looking for the shark on the boat and it shows the shark swimming away, it was a dolphin not a shark. Lmao this movie is so cheesy!!

Mutated Great White sharks are gobbling up sea divers and surfers off the coast of South Africa, more than a nod to Jaws, it even manages to squeeze in some of the latter's famous music. It's many years since I watched Shark Attack (1999) and I remember nothing about it, going by this sequel that's probably no bad thing. This movie is set in Cape Town yet there's barely a genuine local accent to be heard, the place appears to be populated mainly by Americans, even the Mayor. We get a famous shark hunter from Australia but the actor's English accent keeps slipping out. For some reason sharks roar, sadly this was to become normal for countless other bad shark movies to come. A lot of stock footage is used, probably the best thing here, but some of the shark effects are laughably poor. However the attacks are quite vicious, the movie doesn't lack guts! Plenty of nice Cape Town scenery but the film drags in places, in particular during the predictable love story scenes. Bad shark movie but trust me there are far worse out there.

For one sharks don't roar and Deep Blue Sea was a lot cooler and this movie ripped Deep Blue Sea. I am not going to give this away but hell it's a good for a $2 rental at a video store and for a party if you want to get a little buzzed and make sick jokes when someone become lunch.

Some might have spoilers but I am going to give an aspect of the first scene in the film the female lead character watches her sister get carried away feet in the mouth. Dinner served but that's all I am giving you. This is one of those movies where it gives sharks a bad name but the at least you don't see the strings.

You don't need to watch Shark Attack One to watch this one but I don't know how this movie came to be or the director misses the injokes. Red Water is much better in how it's made and the plausible elements how they made the shark makes you wonder how they did it.

I never saw the first Shark Attack...and I only caught this one on TV, but good F**king god, this movie was stupid. There was so much stock footage in this, I'm surprised natianal geographic isn't calling for it's documentary footage back. I feel stupider for watching this sh*t. The CGI sharks were so bad, I felt like i was being treated to a 10 year olds drawing. and hey, SHARKS CAN'T SWIM BACKWARDS! I don't care if they are genetically altered or whatever...they would drown if they did. oh, yeah lets screw the night before we are going on a really deadly mission to kill 6 sharks.

There isn't much good to say about Shark Attack II if you ask me. One of the nicest things you will probably hear me say about this film is: 'Ive seen worse.' which by the way is the absolute truth. But unfortunately having seen worse is not an excuse for poor film-making. The acting, while bad is certainly as abominable in a way that will make you laugh throughout the film. I'll give the filmmakers that, but basically THAT'S IT. That's all the credit I'll give them...plus that they shot some nice shark footage perhaps. When the evil beasts get into action gear it becomes a whole other story though: you can actually see cardboard shark-heads on those occasions...which is really sad. I mean Jaws (30 years ago my friends) had better shark effect than this film, so if you're into watching a shark hunting exercise I suggest you watch that one (again). If you're drawn by the story (yes they pretend to have one) about genetically mutated sharks I suggest you stick to Deep Blue Sea, which has a somewhat similar premise and to be honest, this one could actually have been 'Deep Blue Sea 2: The Ones that got away'. What really kills this film in the end though are the roaring sharks...come on people this isn't 'Godzilla takes a dive' this is a shark film and sharks don't roar...they bite...and so does this film.
