In an attempt to save their son and the world from the horrible attack of sharknado, Fin and April, a young courageous couple, wanders the world, the thing that challenges them.
Sharknado is all about tweets and, as far as social media attention goes, fear of missing out. That turns the TV movie into a rare social media supernova that burns brightly for brief moment before the inevitable darkness of viewing regret sets in.
The basic premise has remained resolutely the same: scenes of C-grade actors getting chomped to bits by D-grade CGI sharks mixed together with enough jokey references to other, generally better movies to allow film buffs to distract themselves.
I'll say this much about sometimes-monotonous Sharknado 5: Global Swarming: it was a slight improvement on last year's completely monotonous The 4th Awakens.
