Review of Roboshark

Roboshark (2015 TV Movie)
4/10
Worst shark movie ever, but funny social commentary.
27 September 2016
Warning: Spoilers
The Three Acts:

The initial tableaux: A UFO targets Earth and send a probe into the Pacific Ocean. Next, we see a shark gulping the probe whole. The shark takes out a USN nuclear submarine with 168 personnel.

The US Navy decides to make its stand in Seattle. Weatherwoman Trish, husband Rick (who works the city's water/sewer system), and daughter Melody prepare for a 'normal' day, but it is not to be. Trish sees the shark take out a coffee stand, and Rick monitors multiple problems in the sewer system. Later Melody swings back into the scene to help Trish and Louie.

Delineation of conflicts: Roboshark seems intent on damaging Seattle. Admiral Black wants this threat to national security dealt with by whatever means necessary. Trish wants a big story so she can get a promotion. Melody wants to help her mother using her Internet savvy. The parents want Melody to go to safety.

Resolution: Will anyone of the central characters figure out the intentions of the Roboshark? If so can they communicate successfully before Seattle is destroyed or the Navy uses tactical nukes on Roboshark?
