Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!

Plot synopsis:
In the opening scene, Fin Shepard (Ian Ziering) is seen running frantically through Washington DC. He's picked up by two agents who escort him to the White House. A ceremony is held for him in honor of his heroics against the sharknados in Los Angeles and New York the previous year. Fin receives a golden chainsaw as part of an exclusive society from the President Marcus Robbins (Mark Cuban). Fin's nephew Martin Brody (Mark McGrath) is also there in attendance. One security guard (Lou Ferrigno) also takes a picture with Fin. Suddenly, a sharknado strikes, sending dozens of hungry sharks down on the city. As people are ripped apart, Fin grabs his golden chainsaw and slices through the sharks like butter. Outside, the storm destroys the Washington Monument and causes it to plow through the White House. Fin, the President, Martin, the Vice President Sondra Beck (Ann Coulter) and others try fighting back until the storm abruptly stops.Meanwhile, April (Tara Reid) is remarried to Fin and expecting another kid. She also has a mini-chainsaw to replace the left hand that was eaten in the last movie. She's with her mother May (Bo Derek) and her and Fin's daughter Claudia (Ryan Newman) at Orlando, Florida to check out the Universal Studios park. Claudia goes off to meet her friend Jess (Blair Fowler) while April stays with her mom. May worries that Fin's heroics would be hazardous for the baby and their renewed marriage.Fin heads to Florida to find his loved ones when another sharknado strikes in a town that he is driving through. As the sharks rain down, Fin is helped by his old friend Nova (Cassie Scerbo) and her new partner Lucas (Frankie Muniz). Nova kills several sharks and takes Fin with her. Since almost dying in the first movie, she has toughened herself up and has been tracking sharknados to prevent further devastation. Lucas thinks it's cool how Fin has defeated countless sharks, especially during the battle in New York, but Fin is still mourning the loss of his friend Skye.The three head to a military airport to meet with Fin's other old friend General Gottlieb (Tim Russ). He allows Fin, Nova, and Lucas to enter and for Fin and Nova to pilot jets to get through the storm. Another sharknado comes down, killing numerous soldiers. Lucas rushes to detonate a bomb, but he keeps getting his limbs ripped off by sharks. He finally sets the bomb off, killing himself and other sharks.In Orlando, April starts to panic when a shark falls down a water slide, eating a lifeguard. She rushes to find Claudia, who, along with Jess, has joined with a boy named Billy (Jack Griffo) and his buddy Chad (Melvin Gregg). Chad hits on Jess and gets her to go along with him on the Disaster ride, with Claudia and Billy reluctantly joining them.While flying in their jet, Fin and Nova spot another sharknado about to hit the Daytona 500. The sharks rain down and eat several racetrack fans and drivers like Brad Keslowski.The sharks start coming down on Orlando as the kids are still on the ride. They fall in during the special effects part of the ride, and one shark eats Chad. The rest of them make it out, but Jess gets eaten too. Even George RR Martin gets eaten while watching a movie (fittingly called "Shark Wedding").The heroes realize that a multitude of storms are coming, creating a massive "sharkicane" that will ravage the East Coast. Fin decides he must seek help from one person - his estranged dad and retired NASA Colonel Gil (David Hasselhoff). Fin finds Gil in a diner with his two old army buddies Stylo and Caissier (Penn and Teller). Fin asks Gil to join the mission to take down the sharknados.Fin, Gil, and Nova rejoin April, Claudia, Billy, and May. The first four go to NASA and are allowed to commandeer a shuttle into space so that they can deploy tanks full of rocket fuel to stop the sharknados that begin to rain down on the area. Claudia and Billy join a soldier as they shoot at the sharks. The kids grab guns and fire back until they run out of bullets. Billy opens the door to the roof for Claudia to get back in and kisses her. Unfortunately, he gets eaten too.While Nova remains behind to provide covering fire from her air force jet, Fin, Gil and April launch into space and deploy the massive tank, causing a huge explosion that only briefly halts the storm. Gil finds another solution, and that is to activate an old satellite that would deploy a laser beam at the sharks. Gil says goodbye to Fin, knowing this would mean he has to sacrifice himself. Gil goes off into space and turns the satellite on, shooting the laser beam and stopping the sharknados from spreading. However, this also causes the sharks to somehow be pulled into orbit toward the shuttle. They start chomping through the shuttle until Fin uses a lightsaber-type chainsaw against the sharks. One of the sharks swallows April whole. Fin rushes to save her, but he gets swallowed by another shark. The sharks start hurtling back toward earth in flames. Fin rips through his shark and lets a parachute guide him down.As he lands, Fin rips himself out of the shark. The shark carrying April lands, and Fin hears her chainsaw revving. Out of the shark comes a human baby that April somehow managed to give birth to inside the shark. It's a little boy. Fin pulls April out as well. They are rejoined by Nova and Claudia. Fin decides he wants to name the baby after his dad. He looks to the moon and salutes, and we see Gil saluting back.But several pieces of debris from the shuttle starts plummeting toward April as she walks across the field strewn with the dead sharks. Before we see what happens, the announcer says viewers have the choice to decide if #AprilLives or #AprilDies, and her fate will be revealed in "Sharknado 4," because THEY AREN'T DONE YET!

Review:
Now he and those he runs into on the way to Orlando must work together to try to stop the sharknados before they combine to form a sharkicane with the potential to destroy the entire East Coast.I'll get right to it and say that this movie is terrible but that's not the point here.
I saw some things in this that made me question myself but like I've said, this film is called Sharknado 3 so in order to enjoy it, you just have to suspend belief and accept what you are being given.
My favorite thing about the film is all the random shark kills in all their "semi-gory" glory (this is a TV movie so they can only go so far).
The first two films were simply rehearsals for this completely over the top,wonderful piece of fun.This is all I wanted the first two to be and more,it's just so full of action, in jokes, humour,load's of knowing cameos,and that's the joy of this film, everyone knows it's ridiculous,but they're having a ball, and so does the viewer if they allow themselves to.I have to say, I think the people who don't enjoy this movie must have had a sense of humour bypass,it's just such fun,and likable.I noticed that all three films have been released in 3D in Germany, so have ordered them,and can't wait to watch this instalment in particular all over again.Highly recommended for fans of funny,camp,kitsch humour..
Come on, that is really science fiction.I was forced to watch this as it was filmed in Orlando.Sharks dropping on the Daytona 500; hat is a race I would watch.The worst part of watching this movie is that it was on Syfy.
Sharknado 3 (2015) ** (out of 4)Fin Shepard (Ian Ziering) is at the White House receiving a honor from the President of the United States (Mark Cuban) when another storm comes in carrying more sharks.
After the attack Fin plans to make it to Florida to meet his pregnant wife (Tara Reid) and her mother (Bo Derek) but of course a bigger storm with even more sharks is brewing.SHARKNADO pretty much came out of no where and did got moderate ratings but it set social media on fire and eventually became a cult film.
I think the biggest problem with SHARKNADO 3 is that they made it campy, silly and stupid on purpose and this really isn't how cult movies work.
No, PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE and other "so bad they're good" movies work so well because their directors tried making something great and fell short.
This one has Fin Shepard (once again played by Ian Ziering) trying to stop a tornado of killer sharks, which stretches from Washington, D.C. to Orlando, Florida.
Frankie Muniz, Ryan Newman, David Hasselhoff, Mark Cuban and Bo Derek join the cast; which also has returning cameos from Matt Lauer and Al Roker, plus many new ones (including notorious conservatives like Ann Coulter and Michele Bachmann).
He finds help from an old friend (Scerbo) and his father (Hasselhoff).The movie is filled with really bad acting and cheesy dialogue; it also boasts a ridiculously nonsensical plot and laughable action scenes and gore.
I was particularly scoping out the ones that looked rather lackluster and, sure enough, Sharknado's poster was featured in the article, boasting its trademark image with the tagline "ENOUGH SAID!." I rolled my eyes and thought little of it until I began seeing a great deal of social media buzz for it upon the announcement that the film would have its North American premiere on the SyFy network.
The fact is, however, many of us paid it what it didn't deserve and now we have a second sequel and a third one in the works.This particular film revolves around Fin and April (Ian Ziering and Tara Reid), this time, fighting off a sharknado that is pulverizing the east coast, particularly Washington D.C..
These storms eventually mold together to create a large, ostensibly unstoppable sharknado that can only be taken down by Fin, April, and Fin's old friend Nova (Cassie Scerbo), as they decide the only way to potentially stop it would be to go into space.The chaos in Sharknado 3 starts early and rarely lets up, and at about ninety minutes, like its predecessors, the film becomes dreary and repetitive quickly.
We get the momentary smirk when we see familiar faces like David Hasselhoff, Penn Jillette, Robert Klein, Jerry Springer, Anthony Weiner, Ann Coulter, Frankie Muniz, and even Michele Bachmann upon many others get their brief moment of fame, but these inclusions are just another ploy for the film to continue to garner unworthy attention.
Starring: Ian Ziering, Tara Reid, Cassie Scerbo, Frankie Muniz, Bo Derek, Mark Cuban, Ann Coulter, and David Hasselhoff.
Attempting to travel to Florida to visit his family, Finn and April become stranded in the middle of the biggest sharknado yet dropping sharks down on the East Coast and must battle their way through the creatures to save their friends.While not quite up to the craziness of the second one, this is still another stand-out effort here.
That charm also comes in the form of so many outstanding action scenes along the way here, from the opening assault on the White House dinner where the random guests are all attacked and the rather cheesy fun of taking a chainsaw to the flying shark or blasting them out of the air with a hail of gunfire blowing them away gives this a spectacular start followed by the save later on as they land on the escape route to get away.
The later attack on the Army base is quite fun with the raining sharks taking out the base with plenty of graphic blood-splatter, offer up the truly highlight moment kill in the film which is unbelievably spectacular and carries on the resolution offered from the first one that pays off nicely here as well with the action in the skies using the fighter jet to take the creatures out.
There's also the fun finale with the space-shuttle being threatened and offering a form of high-impact action scenario to finally end matters while keeping the action furious with the raining sharks coming down on the troops, the multitude of gunfights to keep them at bay and the magnificent finale that truly offers forth floating sharks in space as they attack and get inside the ship which makes for more chilling moments and plenty of fantastic cheese including the final means of getting back to Earth.
This is definite junk food for the brain, the ultimate in guilty pleasure and I enjoyed it just as much as the first 2 films.Ian Ziering is back as Fin Shepard, giving his all and kicking shark ass all over Washington D.C and Florida as the entire east coast comes under threat from shark infused storms.
Its a kind of Shark-apocalypse, a perfect storm of blood, teeth, missing limbs and epic B-grade cheese moments.Tara Reid's (now pregnant) character returns, (still awful) along with a ton of cameos including Frankie Muniz, -that's gotta hurt, Bo Derek, Mark McGrath, Chris Jericho, Mark Cuban, the GMA team, and more.
You know before you see a film called Sharknado3 what you are expected to be in for, dodgy effects, over/bad acting, lots of gore, devastation and a story that does not make sense, so in view it didn't disappoint which is why I gave it 10/10!I have to the actors must love working on these type of B movies, they can overact all they want, with their tongues firmly in their cheeks because they know that is what is expected of them.We know a film isn't going to win any Oscars so just enjoy it for what it is, a disaster b movie which doesn't take itself seriously.The only thing that was missing.....
The first two Sharknado movies were not great and had a lot wrong with them, but they were guilty pleasure fun as long as not taken seriously.
Sharknado 3 however was a let-down, it lacks the fun and charm of the first two as a result of being too self-aware and trying far too hard, really wanted to not take this seriously and view it as a guilty pleasure but it was just too amateurish and tired.Sharknado 3 does start off great, with a thrilling James Bond-like opening credits sequence and the hilariously over-the-top sliding across the floor scene.
The rest of the acting is not very good at all, with Tara Reid being every bit as unspeakably awful as she was in the first two movies, her facial expressions look so expressionless and very forced in the few times she tries, her line delivery is mechanical and she constantly looks ill at ease.
Mark Cuban is incredibly annoying and like Reid shows no acting skills whatsoever, while on the other end of the spectrum, Frankie Muniz is lightweight to the point of being bland and David Hasselhoff is wooden.Even for low-budget, Sharknado 3 is very shoddy stuff, the scenery is pretty good but the movie is shot in a very rushed-looking and drab way, editing is sloppy as well as choppy and the shark special effects are typical dreadfully artificial Asylum/SyFy fare.
Say what you will about the second Sharknado movie being a re-tread, but this movie is much more so, and with none of the fun, charm or energy of the previous two outings, with the Universal Studios scenes going on forever and leading nowhere.
It's further not helped by trying too hard being dopey fun and in the process taking itself too seriously with everything played straight and overly-deadpan, that any life is sucked out.All in all, the third movie in the Sharknado franchise has its moments but is very lacking on the whole this time round.

review by Mike Smith In this 3rd installment of the Syfy original trilogy, Sharknado, a monstrous tornado unleashes ravenous sharks from Washington D.C., all the way down to Orlando Florida.
Laughable CGI, ludicrous concept, ham acting from a lot of performers, lame jokes, a sprinkling of Z-list celebrities, and tongue in cheek humour with very little horror.I personally like bad movies so I knew what I was in for.
Should the third one continue the trend, it would be almost impossible to bear (and I've watched some real tosh in my time).Thankfully, part three isn't just another simple retread of the first film (parts 1 & 2 were virtually identical): oh no, this one is totally bonkers, taking the silliness up to eleven, first in Washington D.C., then at the Universal Theme Park in Florida and at Cape Canaveral, before finally entering outer space.The film opens with hero Fin (Ian Ziering) fighting alongside the President of the U.S.A.
It's gung ho, splattery silliness in which anything goes, logic playing no part in proceedings—and the film continues in this vein throughout.The D.C. Sharknado under control, Fin heads towards Orlando to meet up with his pregnant wife April (Tara Reid) and teenage daughter Claudia (Ryan Newman), meeting up with old friend Nova (Cassandra Scerbo) along the way, who has dedicated her life to tracking and destroying sharks (and looking incredibly hot while doing it).
Together they travel to Florida, where the biggest Sharknado of all (a Sharkicane?) threatens the whole Eastern seaboard.With a little help from Fin's father Gil (David Hasselhoff), Fin comes up with a plan to use a space shuttle to burn up the storm and kill all of the sharks.
It doesn't mess around with explanations or prefaces but immediately plunges into a rain of sharks being dropped on the White House just as Fin is receiving the "highest civilian award" from the president (as well as a golden chainsaw), and proceeds from there to destroy the entire Eastern Seaboard, ending in Universal City in Orlando, not exactly a nice thing to do to one of its distributors, but...fun, anyway.There...the entire plot in one sentence.Sharks in tornadoes aside, most of what happens is no doubt improbable if not impossible, but who cares?
However, in the third film, there is an attempt at a story line (not necessarily a good thing), the take down of sharks with swords, poles and a ball!This movie offers comedy due to the pointlessness, terrible acting and impossible action scenes, the third one takes it to a new level.
Yep, this third installment in the series uses the same recipe from the previous two movies and offers very little in terms of improvement or new ideas.The trouble with sharknadoes seem to follow Fin around like a bad case of the flu.
And with that being said, then it should also be said that "Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!" delivers what it is supposed to.The cast, both new and returning from the previous two, did good enough jobs with their given roles and characters.
Well, just wait and see..."Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!" follows in the footsteps of the previous two movies, for good or bad..
I always watch these shark movies for a good laugh.
what did you seriously thing it would be amazing its called Sharknado guys I mean come on.But it was a terribly good movie and just funny to watch the over acting.
If they weren't, we would still have characters like those they play in the film, so I see no real problem with them.The film opens with Fin receiving an award from the President in Washington D.C. and, SHARKS!
Here is to hoping that The Asylum has learned from Sharknado 2 and 3 how to make good B movies, and we see more like them outside of our old chums the sharks..
I've always been a big fan of the sharknado films and when I heard there was a third one out I pushed my not so busy schedule aside and "made time" to watch my favourite franchise.
I liked the first "Sharknado" because although it was a bad movie, it was fresh and didn't give off the vibe of it trying too hard and yet it worked.
However now it seems like with each new installment this franchise actually tries to be a good and yet more family friendly movie.
I've never liked most TV movies, and I've always hated the "Sharknado" franchise!
And I know that no one is forcing me to watch these movies, but how else am I going to give it a bad review?
Sharknado 2 was definitely going to be a tough act to follow, but they made it look easy with this film.The premise of this movie is essentially this: Sharknado's are happening all along the eastern coastline of the USA.
Add in smaller cameos from Chris Jericho, Jerry Springer, Lou Ferigno (who has a great Hulk-referencing line) and even have Mark Cuban come on to play the president and this film is chalk full of amazing casting.Overall, for anybody who enjoys B- movies and wants to have a good time, this movie is for you.
Then it became some sort of strange phenomenon, so the second was made, and the references became more frequent, and the cameos more elaborate, and in the narrative of Happy Days,my hey jumped the shark with the franchise.With the third instalment, they throw everything at the screen, and see what will stuck, but while watching this nonsense, however entertaining the film is for all the wrong reasons, you know they are really desperate to go one better, which ruins a lot of the fun that the original had.Story wise, there's just another Sharknado happening, and the bloke from 90210 has to save an even more haggard looking Tara Reid and their daughter from the Jaws (ahem) of death.
And along the way, there are cameos galore, from wrestlers, to Jackie Collins, to Lou Ferrigno, to even bloomin' JedWard, and it's just same old same old for the film.But then, David Hasselhoff turns up, and it ends in space...........that's right, space.And it doesn't know what to do, the laughs become non-existent, laser chainsaws are introduced, and it all ends with Tara Reid giving birth whilst inside a shark, but the baby coming out of the shark.You just read that right.It sounds bonkers it should have been a wonderful, stupidly bonkers experience, but it's really spluttering with its effort, and while there are some flashes of genius, it's become too self aware to be as enjoyable as it once was.But hey oh, the fourth one is being made, so they may step up a little bit.Doubt it though..
This "movie" truly makes you want to hate life and deserves very few words or time wasted on it.I will say, the first was one of my favorite types of films: unintentionally bad, or so it seemed.
Never did I expect a third.And that third film, was a bad idea.For one thing, the action isn't as fun to watch as it was in the last two movies.
But in this third installment, like I said, it just isn't as fun anymore.Also, I feel that the folks at Asylum Entertainment were taking it a bit too far when they decided to have celebrity cameos in this film, which were really unnecessary.
Great, now we all know how the Sharknado movies are going to get annoying.
I enjoyed the first film for what it was, a fun and cheesy B-movie along the lines of 3-HEADED SHARK ATTACK or AIRPLANE VS.
I didn't much like the first two "Sharknado" movies, but they look a lot better when compared to this third entry in the series.
Here there are no shortage of cameos, and since much of the film's charm is spotting the famous people hired for a day's work, I'll say no more.What I like about the Sharknado movies is that while they're willing to kid themselves but they aren't willing to let the actors wink at the camera.
