3/10
Hysterical comedy, thick with satirical acting and more production values than expected
25 August 2022
If you embark on watching this film for the action, thriller, or sci-fi potential, this movie ranks around a minus 7 out of 10 stars.

However, if this is your "Best of the Worst" pick for a fun night of drinking with friends and laughing at loudly preposterous premises, costumes, characters and sets, then this is the movie for you.

The first 20 minutes of the movie is probably the funniest, for so many reasons. The best part being the stolen "Hunt for Red October" trope of quickly changing subtitled dialogue to English with phony Russian accents.

I won't spoil any of the ridiculous jokes in the movie, but I will say that there is a minuscule chance that everyone involved didn't knowingly play this like they all knew every part of this movie was a joke. If that is the case, then this is pure trash. If, like I think, they all knew what a gigantic joke every part of this movie is, then this is a phenomenal comedy.

Having said all of that, the production values are way better than one would expect given the very low CGI quality. The human-shark-now-moon-dwelling-bad-guys are very poorly done. I gave it three stars because I laughed at so many things throughout. I'll admit that I'm not sure if they intended for me to laugh at so many aspects of the movie.
