While transporting an iceberg to Alexandria, Egypt another Mega-Shark becomes thawed, alive and dangerous. The recently thawed creature is able to sling the tug boat through the air and knock off the head of the Sphinx 112+ miles away. They managed to create a Mecha-Shark to combat the creature because Mark 48 torpedoes always miss the mark and come back to sink the launching ship. Pony tailed Rosie (Elisabeth Röhm) is the pilot of the battery operated mechanical shark even though it has a computer that can do it. They create a second mechanical shark just because. After they tag the Mega-Shark with a GPS device, they still need Debbie Gibson to tell them where the shark is headed, because she adds a name to the DVD cover. Eat your heart out Danny Trejo. Rosie has an awkward flashback to a child that died, which really didn't work well in the film.Asylum continues its Navy insignia guessing game. In this film the admiral wore two "surface warfare specialist" breast pins on his lapels (no rank insignia) while a captain wears the breast pin on his shirt pocket (close but no cigar).The ending of the film was a big "huh?" Mild cheese factor. Bad dialog, and they had a great opportunity with a talking computer. The admiral knew someone who died on every boat, and made sure we knew too. Not the best Asylum Mega film out there. Parental Guide: No f-bombs, sex, or nudity.

This is a long 1,5 hours of your life. The movie is fast paced and never stopped. So much is put it, it must have been a 1000page script. The goofs are quite numerous, it seems nobody read the 1000 page script for errors. Maybe they just didn't want to give you time to think. Or they had a brainstorm and decided to add all ideas into it.I can't remember the music or sounds of the movie. The acting is worthy of a porno movie. The visuals are there. and literally anything is possible

I recorded this movie on my DVR. The preview looked interesting but two minutes in was ready to stop it and delete it. The story line had potential. The Special effects where OK, but they could have been better. This reminded me of an older movie Godzilla vs Mecha Godzilla which had better special effects slightly better acting, and was more believable. Now the one part of the movie that did not make any real sense was why did the female character fly off to see another female character to tell her about where the Mega Shark was going to be? A text message or email could have done the same! DUH! Now another thing that made me want to stop watching this epic failure was the interracial marriage I can tell the main stream media must have been involved in the story line. Also the actors did not sell me that they where a married couple too forced! So for the most part a really waste of time to watch this movie! The only good thing was it was recorded so I could at least fast forward through the commercials and limit the agony!

The Mega Shark movies are the kind that aren't to be expected much from, but even with that in mind I personally didn't consider Giant Octopus or Crocosaurus particularly good, some fun moments, mostly for the so-bad-it's-good value there was, but mostly they were too amateurish and ridiculous to take it even for what they were. Mecha Shark is the best of the three but from personal opinion it was only passable. It is the best-looking of the trilogy definitely, the scenery is very nice as well as the underwater shots and the editing is reasonable. The score is catchy and in a way drives the movie rather than bog it down. The special effects are better than average if not great, a huge improvement on its predecessors anyhow(and I'd go as far to say that much of the underwater stuff was quite good), sure there are a few ropey ones here and there. Much of the acting is not bad at all despite not having very strong material to work with, the playing-it-straight approach is adopted and it suits the movie just fine, doing it without going through the motions. Elisabeth Rohm and Christopher Judge are commanding leads. And the last act is a lot of fun, the pace is snappier and while inevitably predictable some of it is amusing and at times endearingly silly. There is an exception regarding the acting and that is Deborah Gibson in her brief appearance, if she had a bigger role she would have come across as less phoned in. The characters are not annoying as such but are not very interesting, and that is including the shark who is more goofy than menacing. The script mistakes insultingly cheesy for snappy, the jargon is really stilted too and a lot of scenes have dialogue and voice-overs that over-explain things. If there was one word to describe the script, bloated would be it. The concept was ridiculous in the first place, but two thirds of Mecha Shark is rather indifferent until the last act really picks up. That it's predictable is to be expected, but the suffocating pacing, lack of tension or suspense and scenes that are very derivative, with a few parts reminiscent of those from its predecessors(like the mid-air leap jet chomp from Giant Octopus) but also reading too much of inferior copies. They were mildly fun previously while making you feel stupid at the same time, here they were just tired. All in all, at best it's reasonably fun and it is easily the best of the Mega Shark trilogy. But while it is a significant improvement technically and acting-wise, there could have been room to have more fun and the improvement does not translate into the writing department, with a sense of not just trying to do too much but also feeling very bland and indifferent. 4/10 Bethany Cox
