    The Sharknado franchise stands as my all time favorite guilty pleasures and I'm very happy to report that The 4th Awakens continues the absurdity of what make these films so enjoyable to watch. Going even more over the top than the last, it's gleefully stupid and doesn't apologize for being so. It's without a 10/10 on entertainment but as a overall film, not to much.

    My last review was mediocre I think so let me make it more clear. This movie is a so bad its good type of movie so that explains it to you people what I think about this movie.

    This film is excellent, best film of all, but it's too short, so score is 0, they shouldve made it 10 hour long, for such an excellent film even 6 hours is not enough

    Wow, not sure what they were going for here. But there comes a point when you're watching a movie starring Tara Reid, David Hasselhoff and Gary Busey that you have to wonder how it got made, especially in 2016. This movie also steals from "Star Wars," "The Terminator" and other much better movies. It is horrid.

    This franchise is getting worse and worse with every movie. The first one was enjoyable, but 2,3 and now 4 are trying to hard to be 'special', to be 'over the top' that I don't enjoy watching them. Do yourself a favor and ignore this movie wherever you find it, because it really isn't worth your time.

    I would not even have considered this being possible at all, but this movie turned out being even worse than the rest of the series COMBINED.

    The main complaint is that not only the intentionally badly made entirety of that movie is already a cruelty, but they had to exaggerate like everything possibly being able to exaggerate to make the horrible content even worse.

    The main complaint is that not only the intentionally badly made entirety of that movie is already a cruelty, but they had to exaggerate like everything possibly being able to exaggerate to make the horrible content even worse. This movie is not only overloaded with bad properties, there is a literal OVERKILL of EXAGGERATION of everything that is already at worst.
    Unlike the first movie, this one is not even closely entertaining for exactly that fact; SHARKNADO 4 quickly shows off as a cathastrophic mess of overstatement that tries to be more than it can be and after only a little while you will get sick of watching this proof for human stupidity, so it may have my compassionate and upset 1 of ten points.
    As the first two, maybe even the third film of the series have somewhat become goods of culture, this one here should clearly be abolished and abandoned from watchers memory, as it can not under any aspects still count as work or fall under the cathegory of "Mockbusters", as it's even a shame for that genre. Just. Don't. Watch. You will regret.    … Expand

    The 4th Awakens is all over the place, both geographically and in its confused, unfocused storytelling.

    What remains is the dullest and most loathsome kind of movie out there, the kind that uses its overtly sarcastic tone to shield from any criticism.

    The fourth one isn't as much silly fun of the first two, but it's a few bites better than last summer's dismal "Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!"
