Synopsis

An underwater earthquake generates a tsunami that strikes Malibu, bringing a hunting pack of prehistoric-looking goblin sharks to the surface. Although the beach is evacuated before the big wave strikes, a group of lifeguards and a crew of construction workers are stranded in the high water and have to fight the sharks to get to dry land.

Brandon Veracka This is by far one of the worst things I've ever witnessed that's called a movie. SyFy makes some bad stuff, but this is the (sour) cream of their crop. The writing is just awful; the worst yet. The characters' acting is blatantly forced and fake. And of course, as in all of SyFy's films, there is some egregious use of sex in the form of half-nude women, who have no reason to be so scantily clad. These girls have no place in these films other than to keep your eyes fixed to the screen for another moment. I enjoy seeing beautiful women, but not in this way; it's disgusting and sad.As for the sharks themselves, they've gone wild on this idea that Goblin Sharks--which are real sharks which live very deep in the real ocean-- are these enormous human-eating predatory fish which roar like lions. This is at least the third or fourth SyFy shark-film I've seen now in which the sharks roar like lions. Sharks don't have vocal chords, so they can't make noises like that. Even giving them the license of this being a creative science-fiction film, it still doesn't fit. None of it does. To make things especially worse and adding insult to injury (on the audience's part), the CGI sharks are just awful-looking; not believable, scary, or anything bordering on entertaining in the least bit. The sharks move so unnaturally, and look as if they were put together on a lazy afternoon by someone who was just learning the ropes on how to make computer-generated images.This film is just terrible. It's not even one of those type of movies that's so bad it's funny type of affairs. This is everything that's wrong with TV & film these days wrapped into a 90ish minute package. Avoid this crap like the plague!
wes-connors An earthquake and subsequent tsunami results in a gang of hungry "Goblin Sharks" from Earth's ancient history being released. They have a pointy forehead, which is a cool look; however, the special effects do not compliment these critters. The hardest hit area is Malibu, where lifeguards struggle for survival. The main focus is on Warren Christie (as Pete) and Peta Wilson (as Heather). She seems to be experiencing a mid-life crisis and wonders if she should leave Mr. Christie for contractor Jeff Gannon (as Colin). Younger hunk Remi Broadway (as Doug) and sexy bikini-clad Chelan Simmons (as Jenny) are an attractive supporting couple. Looking up the budget during the running reveals this was made for an estimated $3 million. This does not seem possible, although director David Lister has a couple of good scenes when his cast has to fight sharks in a building half-filled with water.*** Malibu Shark Attack (7/25/09) David Lister ~ Warren Christie, Peta Wilson, Remi Broadway, Chelan Simmons
Codluvah Last night, I was flipping through TV, bored as hell and nearing midnight and I saw this film on the Space channel. So in my boredom I decided what ever and watched it. I will tell you that is 1 hour of my life I will never get back. It was predictable, I immediately knew what sort of cliché crap will happen before it even does happen and the Goblin sharks are made with some of the worst effects, and I could clearly tell that several scenes of the sharks attacking people were reused shots. Don't even watch and I am lucky it was on cable because I cannot imagine what would happen if someone wasted even $0.99 on a film this awful.
yougojay-169-842263 ...Looking men in this movie! It is amazing how good looking some of them are. Despite the poor acting, lousy special effects and completely dumb plot (even for a B Movie...) how it all seems to melt away looking at all the gorgeous looking male hunks in this movie. We find ourselves here at home watching this movie over and over, always rooting for the hunky & handsome pieces of prime beef that dash across our office flat screen TV - the water droplets gleaming on their tanned and muscular torso's is more than enough to keep our attention! Never heard of any of their names, although the girls in the movie are familiar (Go Peta!) The sheer amount of handsome male goodness is almost overwhelming. Man, Remi Broadway can take a chainsaw to my prehistoric shark ANYTIME! Warren Christie needs to move into our spare bedroom for sure. The movie is horrible, but the alpha man-candy is so sweet. 10 Out Of 10 For Actors
