“Mega Shark vs. Mecha Shark” is not a good movie but I cannot deny the fact that it put a smile on my face. It’s got some cheesy charm that cannot be denied even though many aspects of it are bad. With a title such as this, you know you’re not going to be getting “Citizen Kane”.

A colossal shark is terrorising the oceans and coastal communities around the globe. Scientists and the military have create a robot shark to help destroy the shark before its reign of aquatic terror takes more lives and does more damage to the global economy. However, this shark won’t go down without a fight.

The acting in “Mega Shark vs. Mecha Shark” is easily the worst aspect of this movie. While nobody is outrightly terrible, most of the characters are really bland. You won’t care about them and you will just be sat there in anticipation of the next time the goofy shark shows up. The giant shark does not actually look too bad considering this is a movie from production company The Asylum, known for their low-budget mockbusters (such as “Transmorphers”) and shoddy shark flicks (such as “Sharknado”). The robot shark looks okay.

“Mega Shark vs. Mecha Shark” is apparently a sequel. In fact, there is a whole series of “Mega Shark” movies that I will have to check out at some point. Some of the scenes with the shark causing carnage are moderately enjoyable and the film offers some comedic value. I particularly liked the scene where the shark wrecks the Sphinx. However, I don’t think I can even come close to recommending this picture to the general audience. If you have a soft spot for stupid shark films then this movie will provide you with some level of enjoyment. Otherwise, I’d give this one a miss.
