Now don't get me wrong. I knew the moment I saw this movie on the TV guide, and decided to watch it that it was going to be a pretty bad movie. However, I've found a lot of movies from Syfy are pretty good, even if they're bad - they're those corny little gems that are totally rubbish, but worth the watch just for the laugh.

This was not one of those hidden gems.

The acting was pretty amazing, to be honest. I was really taken aback by just how well the actors did, especially on an emotional level when things happened throughout the movie. The story line really wasn't gripping in any way, and was mild at best. It was quite a bore to get through - numerous times I found myself checking to see how long was left because I was just so bored. The concept behind it? Totally ridiculous; especially when the fifth head came into play.

This was a movie I really regret watching and I honestly wish that I could get the time back it took to watch this all the way through.

One of the first shark movies I've come across to actually show marine biologists, but of course, they lumped us all under the "tree hugger" stereotype which, as a marine biologist myself, is really, really annoying.

Only one pro, and tons of cons. Give this one a miss.

I've seen some reviews that give this a 10/10 or say that this is the scariest thing they have seen (scarier than "Silence of the Lambs" or "The Shining" - WTactualF?!?!?! - They must have been paid to write the rubbish!

The title should give you an indication that this is not a super epic or realistic film, and on that it clearly delivers. A typical SyFy film with over the top CGI, bad acting, poor story and impossible feats of reality and nonsense. As the title suggests, a mutated aquatic predator is on the loose. It's up to the local coast guard and scientists from a Puerto Rican Aquarium to stop it before the kill count rises. Along the way you'll get the usual, and expected pointless deaths and tongue in cheek dialogue delivered in an all too camp way. A follow-up to "3 Headed Shark Attack" which won't ruin your cinema/TV movie experience if you miss it and don't bother. If you are a fan of tacky shark based films you'd probably be better looking at "Sharknado". I knew what to expect before watching this and still it failed to deliver any real enjoyment, just anther SyFy Shark film jumping on the bandwagon of an over populated shark infested water of films.

I won't leave spoilers, I'll save them for the Goofs section instead because there were loads of mistakes throughout, but FTR the shark does have 5 heads, it just isn't apparent till half way through because of bad editing, or because the production team only decided to add a fifth 5th head halfway through editing FFS.

2 out of 10 and that's being generous!!

5 HEADED SHARK ATTACK is the third in The Asylum's series about multi-headed sharks wreaking havoc on unsuspecting coast dwellers; this follows on from the two headed and three-headed variants (although a four-headed shark was bizarrely missed out). The film very much copies the look and feel of PIRANHA 3D throughout, chock-full of bikini-clad bimbos and dumb jocks having fun before they get chomped on by the mutant menace. Being an Asylum film, the CGI effects are cheesy beyond belief and the whole film lacks in realism. The acting ranges from the godawfully wooden to the just-about-managing, while the plot drags together all the usual genre tropes and cliches, from the fame-hungry human villain to the escalating attacks. Only B-movie lovers will enjoy this one.
