I didn't think much of the first two movies either, however whatever low points the previous movies did, they are next to nothing compared to this. Shark Attack 3 is to me an example of a jaw-droppingly bad movie, yet there is some novelty value in how unintentionally hilarious a lot of it is.
Firstly, Shark Attack 3 looks cheap. The setting looks nice, but because the editing is so haphazard and the camera angles as odd as they are you can't appreciate it. The stock footage looks rushed constantly with a shark that is as menacing as a rubber fish.
Sound quality especially in the attacks and the stock footage is muffled, and the attacks look clumsily staged and have no build up to them. The music is at best forgettable too, and the direction is one of the most incompetent directing jobs I've seen recently.
The script is really quite awful with some of the most inane bits of dialogue you'll ever. There is one line in particular that is very badly written and delivered, and whether it was supposed to be like that or not, you cannot help cracking up.
The storyline is hopelessly contrived, with the sex scenes unnecessary and slowing it down. The ending while extremely unrealistic is the only real scene that actually tries to have some suspense and thrills and coming close to succeeding.
As for the characters, I didn't care for them at all, none of them. All of them were stock and clichéd and were either underdeveloped or annoying. Some of the victims are so bad you wish the shark would get them, the villain especially despite his being one of the film's most clumsiest moments. The acting is horrendous, John Barrowman is a likable actor but his dialogue is stilted and cheesy and you can tell he is trying to keep a straight face but to no avail.
Overall, truly bad but has novelty value. 1/10 Bethany Cox
