Lots and lots of stock footage of fish swimming serenely under water, people walking along the beach, long range footage of a shark swimming, etc but no footage of a shark actually attacking somebody. Interspersed with extremely bad acting. Add a terrible script and a director who doesn't know or care what he is doing.

The only redeeming feature was that some of the songs on the soundtrack were not bad.

Started watching "Apex Predators" this morning. It's sooo bad. The underwater filming has to be the worst I have ever seen for lighting. I'm talking not even go pro status. I'm almost thinking they just maybe pulled stock video from the 80s/90s!! The coral reefs are totally dead as well. Then the fish they are showing in "California" are not found anywhere near that region, definitely another country altogether. I am suspect I will be able to enjoy many shows like this anymore without picking them apart.

Stock footage, unimportant shots that go on way too long, it just goes from bad to worse faster than the quietly swimming sharks.

Truly terrible.

Worst director ever. As with all of his movies, 90% of the "film" is padding, and the other 10% is overexposed, under-lit, shaky, or grainy. This is as unwatchable as everything else he's done. Here's an offbeat idea Dustin, next time you make a shark attack movie, consider adding a shark attack.

The cast of characters remains the same. Mel Novak, Brinke Stevens, Dawn Heisey, Ken May, etc. None of these people would be working actors but for the existence of this director. Wooden and lifeless, just like the film.

Do we have the technology yet to create a shock collar that prevents Dustin Ferguson from ever holding a camera again?

Looks like it was shot on a bootleg smart phone. I love shark movies but this was the first movie ever where I couldn't get past the opening scenes. Truly atrocious acting, editing, directing, etc.

Is money so worthless that people throw it at backing movies like this???

A 10 dollar budget filmed on a 5 dollar camera with free "actors".

Right, well as I sat down to watch the 2021 movie titled "Jaws of Los Angeles" (aka "Apex Predators"), I must admit that I didn't really harbor much of any high hopes or expectations for the movie. But still, with it being a shark movie that I hadn't already seen before, and on the snowballs chance in Hell of it being a great shark movie, of course I sat down to watch "Jaws of Los Angeles".

And this movie was atrociously bad. Seriously, I mean this is one of the worst shark movies I have suffered through, and I had been through a lot of shark movies. What made "Jaws of Los Angeles" fail was the writing from writer and director Dustin Ferguson.

Not at a single moment throughout the course of this movie, which made a lot of use of stock footage of sharks, did I ever feel that the danger of actual shark attacks was present. And it didn't really help much that the actors and actresses in the movie were putting on what could best be classified as dubious and questionable performances all round.

As for the cast in "Jaws of Los Angeles", well... Let's just say that the managed to get together an ensemble of actors and actresses, sure. But let's not go ahead and say that these were top notch performers. In fact, the vast majority of performances in the entire movie were downright abysmal to look at. If you do enjoy watching questionable plastic surgery results, then consider yourself in for a treat as you sit down to watch "Jaws of Los Angeles".

"Jaws of Los Angeles" was frightfully devoid of sharks, well aside from stock footage that didn't have any feel of menacing or danger to it. The movie makers didn't even bother to make a prop for close-up shots of shark attacks.

If you enjoy shark movies, just like I do, then do yourself a favor and stay well clear of the 2021 movie "Jaws of Los Angeles". I am rating this train wreck of a movie a generous one out of ten stars. This movie simply wasn't worth the time, money or effort.

Actually I will go as far as to say that the movie's cover/poster is actually the best thing about the entire ordeal. And that is just a sad fact.

What do you have to smoke to like this? It's more like a 'can you watch more than 15 minutes' contest.

What a huge pile of crap, it can't get no worse than this! The best thing you can do is light up a joint and have yourself a good laugh. As a matter of fact, they should have listed this as a comedy, at least they would have had a better chance at getting a few good reviews. Half the movie is stock footage, and even that sucks!! The acting is terrible, and the cinematographer shouldn't be allowed to work in this country ever again! There are courses in screenwriting and directing, you should invest some money in a few. Dustin Ferguson, stop producing this type of garbage! It should be against the law to make movies this bad.

We had so much fun watching this movie. It's probably one of the worlds worst movies but we had a good laugh.

The acting is extremely bad and there's not a lot of predators. The cgi makes you wanna cry. But I still love this movie.

Hey c'mon, I enjoy low-budget cinema, and like to.quaff some brews and check out some new offerings from made-for-streaming auteurs!

This movie had me with the term "Sharksploitation"! Lol!

Plus, it's always fun to see Brinke Stevens! Give it a try.

Disrespectful to the viewer in more ways than you can count.

Quite atrociously bad in every respect. No story to speak of, certainly no followable plot, absolutely no acting, and without seeming offensive (as I'm certainly no looker), some of the ugliest people I've ever seen on film that are supposedly attractive!

Add to the list of awfulness the fact that there is, visually speaking, NO shark attacks what so ever, then you get what is basically a lot of stock footage interspersed with chronic camerawork and no story line.

Seriously, put your body parts in a blender and watch them liquify - it's more fun to see.

No story, no plot, no acting, no ending.....just bad. It barely has a premise. The movie has one approach. If we filmed it and it was in focus...we use it. Long pointless shots included of no value. Then just at the point where it should get interesting, it just ends.

Understand that I LOVE cheesy "B" rated films.

Sadly there really isn't much plot line to this film. It is mostly about overly face lifted actors trying to keep a career I think.

Mostly random acts of boobs being shown, people being lewd, and an occasional shark attack.

Sound quality and cinematography is "C" grade home video quality.

Some of the actors genuine tried to make it work with what they were given, but mostly this movie would make a great drinking game; every time you see someone with obviously bad plastic surgery, take a shot.

I LOVE cheesy shark movies, LOVE them.

Sorry, but this movie is just bad all the way around. It wasn't corny, funny, horror, suspenseful or had any redeeming qualities at all. The girls were NOT attractive, seems everyone was covered in tatts, the music was ghetto rap... no plot, a big chunk of the time it was just them filming scenery.... the acting was horrible. Just watch Sharktopus again and have some fun.

These days, with the advent of CGI, there have been many terrible shark films; however, as bad as these films are you generally see stuff happening because of said CGI shark. Now imagine a film where there is no CGI shark and, in fact, no mechanical shark or anything...can you do it? Well this film does just that, using only stock footage of very non threatening looking sharks and people screaming and simply falling under the waves to simulate shark attacks. It is almost like kids playing in a pool levels of excitement here. This film is also more filler than actual film. Meaning, you see people walking for extended periods of time, you watch the sunset and you watch two stoner dudes talk about what is going down, but they are not really involved in the plot!

What is the story, you ask? There is one there, but it is kind of in the same boat as the whole 'this is a shark movie'. Sharks are attacking, though you could have fooled me, and a new resort is opening run by Mel Novak who does not look human anymore. His estranged son has a girl and they are both spied upon by his ex who likes to push people into the water and the only way to stop the madness is to go swimming and throw two Ribeyes into the water while a rope is tied around you!

So, the cast consists of Mel Novak and a model that doesn't look human as her lips are so large and her face distorted. Between her and Novak this film's most creepy aspect is how uncanny they both look. The rest of the film features bald dudes, glasses girls, scientist guy, angry guy and his friends with boat who both just jump into the shark infested water...

So, this film is bad, I hesitate to call it the worst shark film ever as Shark Exorcist exists and as bad as this is, there could be worse. This thought makes me shudder though as dang, why did this thing get made? What is sad is that I saw this film sold at Walmart for 9.96, I am guessing you sell 10 copies and you have made up the effects budget for this thing! So to all those other shark films that are terrible out there, you may be bad, but thank you for at least attempting to add a shark to the film and make it seem people were being eaten by it! This film does not even try and the only good thing about it is the box art which is totally misleading and may even be considered false advertising!

I will not characterise this "film" because I'm sure I don't have to persuade anyone about the "quality" of this.... I can only say that the black jealous chick has more potential working in the known series of You Tube comic videos from Lagos Nigeria where an attractive but fat lady is always played upon by a husbad/bf/lover who cheats on her with an equally fat attractive chick but ultimately pays the price in a "Candid Camera" style.....as for the sharks..if they had a legal representative I'm sure they would sue the director.

The acting is so horrible it's an atrocity. Not just bad acting, but overblown antics, flailing arms, etc. Fat women in bikinis acting sexy (eeew) Not one,... Not ONE actor grades above an F!!! I've seen many bad acted movies but this is the worst. None of these people deserve to be in a movie. Disgraceful. Embarrassment to the movie industry.

Is the director just starting out??? Did he know someone in the show business ? Some scenes were too long and unimportant to see like the sunset setting . After 10 seconds I got it and didn't care to see the whole process. At times couldn't hear people talking over the music. Who are these actors???? 75 minutes of my life wasted I will never get back.. The sharks didn't even look like predators . The dolphins at the show were bigger . Cheezzy, cheaply made , audio wasn't good, the quality looked like a movie from the 80's really wasn't a plot there was no ending . Just random people different situations . Geez.

Cool Summer Shark Movie! Great Cast and a very imaginative climax. Give it a watch.

My baby and I love B movies but this. Good lord, it is horrible. They spent more time showing people walking, a sunset, and, the best part of the whole movie, was all the fish and sharks they filmed. That was literally the only decent part of this whole thing. I swear they got every single person in California with the worst plastic surgery ever to be in this movie and the acting. I couldn't even say this is a B movie, I think it totally fell off the alphabet scale, it is that bad. They are supposedly talking on the phone and hold it on their cheek, no where near their ear. For people who are supposed to be scientists, they are so stupid. If you like really, really horrible movies, then watch it. It is not even laughable bad, it's just bad.

One of the worst films I've ever seen, maybe even the worst. I usually don't say that sort of thing because when most people do in reality its an exaggeration & there is worse stuff out there, but wow this is hands down horrendous. Its genuinely just that bad. Not even in the 'so bad it's good' category. It actually reminds me of my first day in college when my lecturer handed us a camera and told us to just go and shoot. Horrible overexposure in every scene. Countless stock footage. Non-existent acting, everything is bad. Theres actually shots in this that consist of Coolduder walking for about a minute straight with NOTHING happening. Can't recommend this at all.
