Frenzy (2018) Reviews

• Why...?

  No one expects good shark movies this time of year on syfy channel in prep for the latest Sharknado event, so no one should be disappointed. But yet I am. This movie was neither consistently laughably awful, nor at all good. Sharks are apparently foiled (at least for a time) by rubber and wood rafts, but take out the folks on a good-sized boat within just a minute or two. The girls take out a couple of sharks in the most ridiculous ways possible (pulling a large rock onto one's head, setting one on fire with about a quart of gasoline, etc.), which do contribute to the entertainment value. However, the movie takes it self seemingly seriously whilst this is all going on. It's like they had the resources to actually make a halfway decent film, but they chose to just ride the fence of camp and legitimate film and chose not to commit to either. The one thing that could have barely saved it would have been a shark jumping out and eating the last survivor as she was recording her video log of the recent events. She had it coming at least as much as the rest of the characters. Embarrassingly bad for all participants - I hope they continue to find work despite this very forgettable film.

• Terrible.

  I forced myself to watch this since I love shark movies. It was absolutely ridiculous on so many levels. Please don't watch this movie like I did haha.

  My husband started watching this movie and I wound up watching it with him. Holy cow is this movie bad. The script and acting are horrible. Like the sharks can't get her floating on an inflatable raft for how long or on the little platform but the two guys that show up on an actual boat get knocked off and eaten in no time at all. Seriously?!?! There's how many other "seriously" moments I could list but I don't feel like wasting any more time on this. Hopefully I can save someone else from watching this and wasting their time. Unless you want to watch it as a comedy because that's how we took it. I was actually cheering for the sharks (which the digital sharks were pretty good for SYFY movie standards I will say).

  My mom wanted to watch this while I visited. The girls were cute enough. But the CGI sharks growled. I tried to explain sharks don't have vocal chords but she just told me to hush up.
