Critics Consensus

The schlock factor for Sharknado 2: The Second One is not as entertaining as its predecessor's, though fans of the brand will likely enjoy it.

The perfect marriage of outlandish concept, amateurish acting and middling production values.

The creators of last year's surprise cult hit repeat the magic of their first outing.

Ridiculousness. Super-ridiculousness. Mega-ridiculousness. Meta-ridiculousness. Love. Fireworks.

The smartest part is its cameos. The sequel is packed full of them, and they're clever and witty.

The moment that Tara Reid is shooting sharks out of the sky whilst hanging out of a plane, yeah, that's when the 'so-bad-it's-good' concept jumped the shark.

Rated: 2/10

A movie needn't be great to make you feel great. The latter alone can be enough.

Sadly, this film can't quite live up to the high standard set by the first entry of the saga. While the original film was taking its creative liberties, the sequel is hyper-fixated on a realistic and fully logical approach to storytelling. Therefore, I think real enjoyers of good cinema should stick to Sharknado 1, while people who seek the information should watch a real documentary about this peculiar weather phenomenon.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Most of the movie was terrible. The camera work was better, but it didn’t have the wacky charm of the first one. SharkNado without a murder every 5 minutes makes no charm. But, after the blue explosion, the Avengers-like fight was charming, and so was the plane and the Mets game. No Nova means it sucked, she was cool, same with Matt, Baz, and George. Skye was lame.

Honestly it just was a downgrade from the first other than the camera quality if you want to watch a bad movie watch the first.

60 percent of the budget probably went into making the Today Show look real, but was also so bad it’s good. I can’t wait to watch the next 4 movies
