Did I see a masterpiece of art or wtf?


I'm utterly confused cause it was good but bad

The IMDB message boards you either die a good poster,or live long enough to become the troll

You're correct that it was good.

It is... a... masterpiece... much like a Rembrandt....

Very bad but so bad it's great. The power glove hacking sense had me rolling.

In my opinion, it's one of the best worst movies ever made. It was made bad on purpose, so the people who made it just wanted to have some fun making it. It's the kind of movies shielded against critics.

I loved it. 30 mins of mindless fun. No more, no less.

You can't do so bad it's good on purpose.
This movie, was just plain boring.

reply

You can't? Then why does Sharknado have so many sequels?

reply

I described it as being stupid and clever in equal measure. When it's bad, it's intentionally bad, and gloriously so.

Most of the "BAD" people are reffering to where intentional stereo types from the 80s films played over the top. Watch 80s films like robocop, the original die, etc and you see this film poking fun at how over the top violence was played out during late 80s action movies. Example a baby carriage drifts into combat on fire while a dog gets away scott free during the arcade fight or the exploding head exageration mimicing the first die hards. And of course the 80s sarcastic 1 linears right before a kill. Even the main character looks like a charlie sheen clone from Platoon.

I can't remember why but I swear theres a lot of Lethal Weapon in there too.

Sharknado is also unfunny crap. Try something like The Last Shark. That's so bad it's good.
I will never work when you're trying to do so bad it's good.

The short didn't take itself seriously and most of the "BAD" was played for laughs. It was intentonally campy with every move played over the top. What medium was this released for? I only knew about it from pirate bay. Was it on TV DVD or something? Where do I actually find the prduct version of this.

Well put because I had trouble wondering if I should give it a 2 or an 8...in the end, after much debate, I gave it a 7.
