Right, well let's just be honest and agree to the fact that right from the very beginning then "Ice Sharks" doesn't really have the odds stacked to its favor, now does it? I mean, this is after all another shark movie set in an environment that normally does not encourage shark activity as such.
But hey, shark movies do come in an abundance especially in strange environments. There are "Swamp Sharks", "Sand Sharks", "Avalanche Sharks", "Atomic Sharks", and the list goes on and one.
So why do we watch these movies when they have the odds stacked against them? Well, personally I do enjoy the campy and cheesy movies like this. They usually turn out to be hilarious, just as they turn out to have more than questionable special effects.
And "Ice Sharks" is no different.
The story here is about a group of researchers or scientists working in the frigid Arctic, when they become prey to a particularly aggressive type of sharks.
The special effects in "Ice Sharks" were adequate, although you should take this with a pinch of salt. You know what you are getting into beforehand sitting down to watch a movie with a title such as "Ice Sharks".
As for the acting, well I will say that people were doing fair enough jobs with their roles, taking into considerations the restrictions and limitations imposed upon them by the script.
For a shark movie, then "Ice Sharks" turned out to be in the lower part of the enjoyment scale. It wasn't a particularly fun or entertaining movie, and there are far better shark movies available.
