Sharknado 5: Global Swarming takes the shark-tastic franchise (I say that, even though I’ve never seen one) er… global. i.e. it all goes around the world.
As shark-infested storms grow stronger and more complex, the world braces for the inevitable – a global sharknado. This year, the mission gets personal for chainsaw-wielding leader Fin Shepard (Ian Zierling) and his bionic wife, April (Tara Reid), when their young son gets trapped in a sharknado and is transported all over the world.
With lots of dodgy CGI and plenty of familiar lines borrowed from other films, yet done in just away to still give a good laugh, this does look pretty cool, and is turning into a surprisingly big movie series.
