Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!

OK, you don't expect much from these films, but at least they could get the President right. Tim Russ would have been better as the President than as a General. Ann Coulter as Vice-President? Come on, that is really science fiction.

I was forced to watch this as it was filmed in Orlando.

Sharks dropping on the Daytona 500; hat is a race I would watch.

The worst part of watching this movie is that it was on Syfy. Stupid tweets like "Best movie I have ever seen," and even worse commercials.

And the ending - ugh!

Please tell me that there won't be another.

Fin (Ian Ziering) and April (Tara Reid) are now remarried and are expecting another child. After a trip to Washington D.C. to receive a medal from current president Marcus Robbins (Marc Cuban) for his heroic actions during the events in the first 2 films, another sharknado strikes destroying the capital. Fearing that his family is in danger, he heads to Orlando. What he doesn't know is that a sharknado is following him while another is attacking Orlando. Now he and those he runs into on the way to Orlando must work together to try to stop the sharknados before they combine to form a sharkicane with the potential to destroy the entire East Coast.

I'll get right to it and say that this movie is terrible but that's not the point here. Everyone probably knew this coming in so I don't think that I'm surprising anyone. The acting is bad, the special effects are bad to the point that they are laughable, and the story doesn't make any sense. I am aware that this movie is called Sharknado 3 so I wasn't expecting anything scientifically accurate. Sharks in space people!!!! I saw some things in this that made me question myself but like I've said, this film is called Sharknado 3 so in order to enjoy it, you just have to suspend belief and accept what you are being given. My favorite thing about the film is all the random shark kills in all their "semi-gory" glory (this is a TV movie so they can only go so far). You'll also be surprised by some of the people who get killed (no spoilers). Common sense would normally dictate not watching this but if you give it a chance you'll be pleasantly surprised and perhaps entertained as I was. I've seen the first 2 films and I enjoyed them a lot and I think that this one is the best one so far.

When there was speculation that Mark Cuban was going to run for president in 2020 one thing was left off his resume. He didn't list that he played a president in Sharknado 3.

I wouldn't brag on it either. For action above and beyond in fighting flying sharks in the first two Sharknado movies Ian Ziering is getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom from Mark Cuban. Wouldn't you know it, but the sharks come to poop the party and in general wreak havoc on our nation's capital.

But that's the preliminary. What Mother Nature has planned is a series of these storms up and down the Atlantic coast. Ian Ziering can't be everywhere, or can he?

And there were three more Sharknado sequels after this. Somebody must have watched them.

As storm clouds gather, chainsaw-wielding Sharknado hunter Ian Ziering (as Finley "Fin" Shepard) runs to collect an award from the US President. A "Sharknado" hits town and destroys many landmarks in Washington, DC, including the White House. Escaping the "worst sharknado" since the first one, according to the NBC-TV news anchors, Mr. Ziering escapes. Ziering looks very muscular; he must work out. Meanwhile, his sometimes wife Tara Reid (as April Wexler) is in Universal's Orlando, Florida amusement park. She is pregnant and receives motherly advice from mother Bo Derek (as May Wexler). Insert the "still beautiful" notation regarding Ms. Derek, as needed. As the sharks thicken, Ziering re-encounters partner Cassie Scerbo (as Nova Clarke), who is hanging around with mechanic/bodyguard Frankie Muniz (as Lucas Stevens). Ziering and the "Sharknado" head for Florida and all hell breaks loose...

Syfy's "Sharknado" disaster TV Movie series is officially getting long in the tooth. The first two were much more fun.

"Sharknado" (2013) used humor to effectively poke fun at itself. "Sharknado 2" (2014) acknowledged that, connecting with viewers who watched the first one to have fun. All were directed by Anthony C. Ferrante, who may be hampered by formula demands from the studio. This one retreads old material (from various disaster films) and loses much of the "laughing at itself" appeal so prevalent in the second movie. New is an interactive chance for the viewer to "kill off" a leading character. This gimmick was used by DC Comics' "Batman" (#427, 1988). The "Sharknado" character in question doesn't do much, anyway. The music is up to par. David Hasselhoff is a promising, but unimaginative addition. A former "Malcolm in the Middle" child star, Mr. Muniz catches the "Sharknado" spirit perfectly; he is the best supporting actor. The movie's most grievous error is not serving Ann Coulter a richly deserved fate.

**** Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No! (2015-07-22) Anthony C. Ferrante ~ Ian Ziering, Tara Reid, Cassie Scerbo, David Hasselhoff

The first two films were simply rehearsals for this completely over the top,wonderful piece of fun.

This is all I wanted the first two to be and more,it's just so full of action, in jokes, humour,load's of knowing cameos,and that's the joy of this film, everyone knows it's ridiculous,but they're having a ball, and so does the viewer if they allow themselves to.

I have to say, I think the people who don't enjoy this movie must have had a sense of humour bypass,it's just such fun,and likable.

I noticed that all three films have been released in 3D in Germany, so have ordered them,and can't wait to watch this instalment in particular all over again.

Highly recommended for fans of funny,camp,kitsch humour.
