Roboshark - 2015 - 4/10

Yeah, murdering more of my brain cells.
One could argue this is one of the better Bulgarian films, though I must confess this is my first.
Alien spaceship sends pods down to earth. One splashes into Pacific and is swallowed by shark.

I thought this would be cheap knock-off of the preeminent Sharknado epics, but this boasted perhaps better characters and a stream of SciFi in-jokes.
When the military gave Roboshark’s current coordinates, I laughed.
The girls next to me asked, and I said, “Map coordinates, THX1138,” and explained.
Later Admiral (wonderfully done, by the way) declares, “The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.”
Billionaire computer mogul, Bill Glates, enters the fray. The power of social media is revealed.
Silly nonsense, set in “Seattle,” with stray Cyrillic signs here and there.
