Big Shark Trailer Review A New Tommy Wiseau Film So, Tommy Wiseau is making a shark film... I've wanted this for a long time and I just didn't know it yet.  I don't know much about this but the film honestly looks like... well... it might just take every award from all the other films released. As you may as well know Tommy Wiseau is the genius behind the movie, The Room. So be prepared to see a masterpiece. I'm expecting this to be a mixture of horror and comedy of epic proportions. Maybe even a touch of a sweeping drama which cascades against all expectations. And apparently the movie takes place in New Orleans, where Tommy Wiseau is obviously a native. So this will be refreshing. I can't wait to see, Big Shark! final score: 4.9/5

47 Meters Down is a 2017 shark film that was slightly better than I thought it would be, but it's still no masterpiece.  47 Meters Down follows two sisters on their trip in Mexico. They decide to go on a little voyage out to see to go into a shark cage, and then mayhem ensues. The dialogue is not going to win any awards anytime soon, but the acting is passible enough that it makes the film watchable. In their situation the sister make some really dumb decisions, and it can come off kinda like a B film at some parts.  One thing this movie does do right is that it know's how to build tension and do it effectively. The tension that the film builds is pretty much the only saving grace of the film. Honestly I wouldn't recommend watching 47 Meters Down unless you are into shark films, otherwise it's probably best just to pass this one up. final score: 2.6/5

The Meg is another shark film that is the way that you would exactly expect it to be, and it's pretty entertaining. I don't think that I need to explain the plot of the film much, but it's basically Jason Statham vs Megalodon. This movie is campy in all the right ways and it's a really fun ride. I know that I'm a little (lot) late to reviewing this movie but, gall darn it! I'm getting it done! This movie knows what it is, and it's fine with that. Some of the dialogue is off at times. In a way, it's like the actors were like, "Alright I said the line, now give me the money," kind of way. Also some of the scenes came off funnier than they were meant to be. To be honest, Jason Statham is the best part of this film. He kills it in his part and I can't see anyone else play his character. The Meg was almost written for him. It looked like he had fun with it and that's a good thing. Overall, this is a fun shark film that is worth seeing...
