Opinion

Shark Week is here, and I wanted to start off with a bang. Unfortunately, I chose Narco Shark. I love the posters for Narco Shark and sequel Narco Sharks and it sounds good on paper. But I hate the actual film. It's like an experimental student film. A bad, dull one. With almost zero shark or narco action! (I'm sure there's some ironic justification for that.) I fell asleep in the middle, and restarted it the next day but just couldn't be arsed to finish it.

If you want to watch a no-budget action flick filmed on the mean streets of the developing world, watch Bad Black.

If you want to watch a parody of 80s action & martial arts flicks, watch Kung Fury.

If you want to watch a self-aware shark movie, watch a Sharknado.

Any of those is a million times more fun than Narco Shark.

If you drink every time you see a shark in this movie, you might get mildly tipsy.

Please don't let the screenshots trick you into thinking this movie is more fun than it actually is.

The movie does have a few brief moments of fun but all together it's a grind. For me , at least.
