Starring Christopher Judd, Mega Shark vs. Mecha Shark delivers exactly what you’d expect from a film with that title—plus a few unexpected gems.
I went into this one hoping Judd would drop a signature “Indeed” at some point. Sadly, no dice. Had he done it, this movie might’ve earned a bonus half-beer deduction. Even without it, though, this film is still packed with sharky fun.
The Asylum knows what its audience wants: destruction, mayhem, and ridiculous chaos. And on that front, they absolutely deliver. There were several moments where I laughed out loud at the sheer absurdity—and I mean that in the best possible way. Sharky shenanigans? Top tier.
Now, I won’t spoil the major twist that reeled this beer rating down from a 2.5 to a very enjoyable 1.5. But I will mention one minor spoiler (last warning!). When the megalodon batted a torpedo back at a submarine like a boss? Fabulous. Just one of many gloriously over-the-top moments.
If you’re a fan of the disaster-shark genre—and let’s be honest, who isn’t—you’re going to enjoy this one. Ridiculous in the best way, Mega Shark vs. Mecha Shark is a solid 1.5 beer movie. Pop a cold one and dive in.
