Even a satire needs some sort of connective tissue, but there's no real narrative spine here, just soft cartilage.

Nothing about Sharknado 5 is worth recommending even if you consider it to be an American summertime tradition, as so many people do.

Somehow, Sharknado 5: Global Swarming pulls the franchise back from the brink and returns it to what it's supposed to be: fun to watch.

Rated: A

[Ziering] may be wise-cracking his way through this stuff with a self-aware smirk, but look deep into his eyes and you'll see something else staring back this movie can only dream about: blind terror.

Rated: 2/10

Yet another horrible sequel in tired, violent sci-fi series.

Rated: 1/5

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.

Global swarming is the best film ever made, its choreography and directing is some of the best in cinema and I don't understand how its rated so poorly.

Sharknado 5: Global Swarming is bad. But once you accept that the Sharknado movies are just cheesy shark movies, I think you can go into it having some fun. Good, cheesy, brainless fun. Besides, how can you not like a movie with Dolph Lundgren in it? (https://foreverfinalgirl.com/sharknado-5-global-swarming/)
