Mega Shark Vs Giant Octopus

Mega Shark Vs Giant Octopus

In this movie, one relic from the past centers this plot about two giant creatures in entail seeking havoc amongst ordered civilization pointed in their direction. Supposedly they were trapped in a glacier back in the days of dinosaurs battling each other millions of years ago. What ensues is unpleasant, slow and rather depressing. One does wonder about western civilization when people are starving in this world yet it doesn’t have the decency to spend better part of $200 000 on what I wouldn’t even call a b grade movie this one is borderline z.

Had a little love been given in making Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus, I might have gone along with the craziness of it. However, I went the entire journey feeling humiliated every second. Don’t ever think of watching this for the sake of novelty, five minutes and the novelty has already sunk with the self humiliation that you spent $5 for hiring the thing.

This entire movie reeks of negligence. The Asylum, who are to blame, seem to have a four month turnaround of a film, from idea to ready for release. A number of the projects are based on what is popular and renting well at the video store. Such creativity.

I could not get emotionally engaged at any moment, from the terrible CGI characters who would have benefitted from some finger puppets and a cup of water, to the incessant repetition of shots of single scenes. At one moment, we are shown the shark’s fin in a more than three instances drop below the surface of the water only to come back and stab the audience with the prophetic, ‘this is the moment he gets closer’ line.

It was Megalodon’s fin that was getting close to the Japanese warship. ‘Then what is close,’ the power button on my television remote. The same scenes are done and had the audience see the same fighting scenes in two different fights. But wait, there is more. So are the sets. How come a Japanese submarine has the same orchestrating center of a war ship? At least the lights are changed.

Throughout, the sound continues and does not go off at any time.

One particular episode stands out from the rest and it was the sex scene which took place in a utility closet after the two characters mixed some lemonade which was enough to arouse them. This type of romance has a narrative that has no chemistry other than a sock that has been used for a week.

There is, however, some applause for the naturalistic acting in the piece, which is provided by a few seagulls in the cutaway shots of the beach. It was some time into the movie that I realized one of the actors is Irish and the remark Sean Lawlor made about how Irishmen sound turned out to be somewhat not correct in my ears.

Such a pity that there can be laughter too, although mostly not on the scriptwriter’s side. A part of Julius Caesar is performed to us and trust me the accent is just one of a kind. William Shakespeare could have definitely turned in his grave. There are other jewels too such as, “I am not the stay at home kind of gal, I am a mermaid” or “Those guys have been frozen in ice for millions of years, wouldn’t you be a little horny?”, probably not, I’d have been frozen, not sexually stimulated.

So therefore, having seeing the movie, I am stuck with over 89 minutes that I am not getting back. I should say that I won’t be travelling to the video rental shops so as to hire out the movies Mega Shark vs Crocosaurus or The Davinci Treasure or Snakes on a Train. Thanks The Asylum, I have had quite enough for now.
