Yeah, a dubbed movie in 2021, what gives? And of course it was that archetypical horrible dubbing without emotion or conviction, that makes the characters feel like they are drugged out of their minds. And worse yet, was the fact that the version of "Huge Shark" that I had stumbled upon was dubbed from Chinese into English. The dialogue in "Huge Shark" was so toe-curling awful that I felt embarrassed just bearing witness to it. I have rarely witnessed such poorly written dialogue in my more than four decades of watching movies. Now, what ruined this movie was the dialogue, which was God awful to listen to. But it worked out well enough for what it was. The storyline in the movie was fair enough, it was simplistic and very generic for a shark movie. No, this was just downright a horribly bad movie. And believe you me when I say that it wasn't even bad enough to be funny or enjoyable. In fact it ranks up there among the top three of worst shark movies I have ever stumbled upon. "Huge Shark" is a laughably bad shark movie. But director Zhaosheng Huang got the benefit of the doubt. And I have to say that I didn't exactly harbor any expectations to the movie given its title "Huge Shark" and also because the vast majority of shark movies are dubious at best. Nevertheless, I opted to sit down and watch this movie without ever having heard about it. I stumbled upon the 2021 Chinese shark movie titled "Red Water", though it was titled "Huge Shark" on the release that I got my hands on.
