Holy Sharknado! When I saw that the low-life thug Tom Sizemore was the leading name in the cast, I was drawn to give it a look-see just out of curiosity. His role was little more than a cameo, but even in his brief appearances, he seemed amateurish next to the earnest, young unknown supporting cast. Even his first scene near the beginning was disastrous! Even though he's sitting still, talking on the phone - and long before any megalodon confrontation - he's sweating profusely for no dramatic reason. Even worse, he sounds as if he's reading his lines. He speaks in a staccato, William Shatner way, in bursts of 3 or 4 words. Then a pause, then 3 or 4 more words. One feels sorry for the mostly young and unknown cast who are there to support Sizemore, but, in fat, have to do all the heavy lifting in moving the wafer-thin plot along. The "action" consists mostly of much talking on claustrophobic sets. Interspersed with brief long shots of military vessels just sailing along. Don't waste your time.
