Sharktopus (2010)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Let me get this clear. I am a great lover of syfy trash films and random creature features but this movie is god awful.The movie repeats itself every 10 mins. Again and again and again and again and again and againnnnnnnnnnn......Give this a miss there is better stuff out there!Ice Sharks for example feels so deep compared to this.

What did you expect from a SyFy original movie? It's badly acted, badly written, bad CGI, bad camera effects, stupid sex jokes, bad humor, stupid plot, bad script. It's perfect for a laughing fest. The whole movie itself was funny. Too bad somebody recorded the death scenes on YouTube and they got flagged Would have loved to watch that again! The way people didn't even react to people getting killed by "S-11" the genetically altered half shark have octopus monster, programmed by the military that went haywire. Yes, the characters are bland. Yes, death scenes happened at random, and were very stupid!! I still laughed my ass off at this movie, and I want the opening theme song on MP3, please!I honestly hope they make a sequel to this stupid but funny garbage. It's like Sharknado!!

Testing for a genetically-mutated shark/octopus creature goes awry in the battlefield and accidentally unleashes it upon the world, forcing a rag-tag team of scientists and hunters to band together to destroy it before it's rampage gets further out of control.Overall this one was a highly entertaining creature feature that had a lot to like. Like a lot of these Sci-Fi Channel entries the best feature of this is the action-packed encounters which are launched from the start here. The opening shark attack that leads into the ambush by the main creature is a great start that enables even more action within this one. Other scenes from the boat chase during the initial test that causes it to lose control, the big attack sequence along the beach involving it slaughtering the swimmers in the water and the beach-goers on land with its tentacles before launching the final encounter along the rocky outcrops, the underwater ambush along the coral reef which provides a fun escape and the later boat attacks which features the exciting gun-fight into the thrilling escape chase provides this one with a fully exciting pace full of rather thrilling series of action scenes. This carries into the main series of action-packed encounters which feature even more spectacle and excitement from the failed chum- ambush which goes for suspense from the chummed waters and underwater stalking as well as the spectacular hotel sequence of it appearing unexpectedly and starting the panic there which leads into the fantastic attacks on the patrons before escaping. The finale at the marina comes off just as good with lots of action from both the creature as well as the containment attempts which are highly inventive and exciting confrontations that really score well in here. Packed with plenty of gore here from the numerous kills throughout, a novel creature design and plenty of enjoyable action bits amount to all the positives here against the few negatives. One of the big parts here is the rather uniformed and completely off-the-mark science here to explain the creature's existence which falls into the usual trap of containing nonsensical matters and utterly contrived pseudo-science to get the point across. There's very little here that makes sense and the film just really falls short asking for that reasoning to be accepted as truth. Likewise, there's the mall facet of this one focusing so much on the short attacks here for the creature that the film's pacing does seem a little off in that there's long section of time without much happening only to hen place a brief action bit right in the middle of it all. Though the big action scenes here are quite good, that this one leans so heavily on the shorter end of these scenes is what holds it down. Finally, the fact that the CGI for the creature here does tend to lower this even more when it rarely matches the setting, is way too obvious about the nature of its origins and changes perspectives from the surroundings quite frequently which is wholly distracting. These here are the film's few flaws.Rated R: Graphic Violence and Language.

This may be gory, but i wish to see it. That Sharktopus movie, is really that scary and gory? I saw pictures from it, but, does it have that scary song? Half octopus half shark is cool! I think it's a smash-hit that will be some-bit scary. Another question is "would it be rated R?" it's gory in places, as i recall from the pictures. It's like JAWS or THE GHOST AND THE DARKNESS. I hope it doesn't get sold out forever! If it does, I'll just watch JAWS. Would it give you nightmares? would JAWS or THE BEAST be better? Or TARANTULA? 12 DAYS OF TERROR? What about ICE SPIDERS? THE LAST SHARK? Please tell me. Sharktopus will be my favorite for a while (if i get to see it).
