Megalodon

"Commander" was a Lieutenant. Non regulation haircuts from enlisted up to hobo Admiral. Rescue sub looks like Saturday morning kids cartoon. Security guy would NEVER bring an M4 rifle on a sub...shotgun yes, pistol, okay. Russian accents dreadful. I could go on but I have to wash my eyes after watching this dreck.

This was such a bad movie from the acting down to the ridiculous storyline. Even Michael Madsen gave a poor performance. It was like he didn't want to be in the movie at all. I got a little better than 2/3 of the way through and I gave up...couldn't bear to watch a single more scene.

Okay, several characters, including Michael Madsen, are sporting haircuts that are not up to miltary specs. But the BIG mistake was in reference to Caroline Harris's character, which is listed as "Commander" Lynch. And all the characters in the movie refer to her as Commander Lynch. But she is wearing 0-3 insignia, which in the US Navy is a Lieutenant, not a Commander. A Commander is an 0-5. So I guess she got a promotion in the field, but did not bother to change her rank, correct???? Wrong, I'm going with this being a bad "B" movie and the miltary consultants did not do their job.

I mistakenly watched this because I thought this was The Meg, dumb I know, but it is based on a similar premise. I should have realised when I noticed Michael Madsen was in it, he is usually only in bad movies and this was bad, with a capital B.

This is so bad that I would have turned it off after 10 minutes, but my partner was liking it, so, regretfully I had to endure the whole thing.

I love shark movies, but this one is not worth watching at all. Everything about it was just wrong.

Avoid like the plague.

I gave this a 1 star because I assume most people probably watch it like they watch most movies and that's hoping to be immersed in a great story. If that is your purpose you should run fast and run far from this atrocity. If you watched it for the reason I did, which is to say, knowing it would be terrible and wondering just how terrible it could be then it's a 12/10. The acting was some of the worst I've ever seen and the script was 6th-Grade caliber which helped accentuate the lack of acting skills. I couldn't help but wonder if the "actors/actresses" realized how awful this was and figured **** it, it's a paycheck, or if they thought it turned out well. One reviewer got into intricacies of military dress and rank insignia and such and I was amazed he felt the need to go that deep for something wrong. However, I do feel it warranted to note this was the worst portrayal of any branch of our armed forces that I recall ever personally witnessing. North Korea could not have dreamed of a better anti-American Navy propaganda film. This was so bad that it's borderline slanderous to every person who does or ever has served in the U.S. Navy. It would have been more appropriate to personally kick each and every one of them in the junk than to paint their Navy like this. Now... Back to the generalities of this tragic waste of resources. The guns they used were not even bad replicas, instead, they clearly were purchased by an uninterested intern who went to the nearest toy store for them. They attempted some military lingo and failed spectacularly. The "Admiral" had some sort of bedazzled eagle disaster on his bdu cover... Yeah I'll leave that all alone. The dialogue was like a *****y porn film but cheesier. Then there was the ship itself when they showed it a couple times. I have yet to decide it it was also a very cheap and unrealistic toy or the worst CGI that I've ever had the fortune to witness. I could continue for days but it you want to see a cinematic atrocity this is the one for you.
