Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

todddunham To begin I feel the pull of the show has gone sour. I feel that the cast and all that they stand for has become so...messed up toward each other as well as the viewers and I believe it's lost everything it had going for it. They once upon a time were kind to the seller and to each other but in late episodes they have become so stuck on themselves and superior to the other sharks as well as to the seller. They have become for a lack of a better word. A- holes. All of them. They think of themselves as gods when in reality they have not as much money as a lot of the wealthier people in the u.s. let me just start by saying "Look sharks, if your out, then shut it!!" and stop saying stupid mean repulsive things about the shark giving the offer? Why do you have to open your mouth...remember?...your out so shut up!!! Because I'm very sure in one episode you offended a 13 yr old girl by saying what you said. YOU ARE NOT GODS' and need to stop acting as if you are so superior to your watchers and to the people needing help because ALL of you were at some point in their shoes so who are you to act superior to them? All of the sharks now cause me not to watch the show because of how they all act toward the seller. It's not something I want to watch. Even if what they have is a bad idea you do NOT have to act like they are stupid or ignorant and like you are so far ahead of them. To end this I will say I used to like the show, back when they would let every shark make an offer but now it's as if you don't take my offer right after I give it then "I'm out" which is extremely ridiculous. Grow up children. That is the reason they are on the show. They want the best deal and offer they don't want to hear one crappy shark offer a crappy deal and feel like they have to take it because if they don't then that shark is out no matter what. I would never go on your show because of just that. Also, I will never watch the show again because of that. Why would anyone go on the show I wonder, when all it would do is make them feel like crap about themselves and feel like they have got to take the first, worst offer, or that stupid childish shark, is out. He/she is out because of a pity party they have for themselves because they lost to another shark. I won't watch the sharks any more, and all of my family agrees, As well as everyone I talk to about this. Guess what sharks....were out.

Andrew Gold Shark Tank isn't your average reality show. It isn't your average show period, because Shark Tank offers a lot more than contestants asking the Sharks for money and making deals. That is the plot essentially, basically the American Idol for struggling entrepreneurs. The entrepreneurs make a pitch for an investment, the Sharks decide whether or not to invest, and if they do, they may have a Shark fight and try to outbid each other, sometimes aggressively so. But the beautiful thing is the wide variety of entrepreneurs there are on the show. There have been things pitched from action movies to fart-resistant underwear to surgically implantable bluetooth into your ear, and everything in between. Many people's stories are touching, some even evoking an emotional response from me which is quite difficult. On the flip side, some are horrifically bad and hilarity ensues watching the Sharks rip them to shreds. The greatest thing about the show is how real it is. You can tell that the Sharks have genuine personalities and as you get to know them, their interactions become a lot funnier and a lot more personal. The show didn't have a consistent group of Sharks until season 3-4, but it's been fairly consistent since then, and their chemistry is absolutely perfect. Especially when a brilliant entrepreneur comes along with an amazing product and every Shark wants in. That's when things get explosive and at one point so intense that 3 of them walked off set.It's also a phenomenal learning experience. Now, I know nothing about business. At least I didn't prior to watching Shark Tank, and the learning curve is quite simple. Once you understand the concept of valuation and risk assessment it's pretty easy to follow the mathematics of it. So for example, if someone came in asking for $100k for 10% equity in the company, they're valuing the company at $1 million because it would take 10 times the growth in order to pay back the investor. That's how the Sharks think, so understandably when people come in asking for $500k for 5% equity in their company ($10 million valuation), the Sharks expect some damn good sales to back that up. Since the show is entirely based around the Sharks, I figured I'd go down the list and express how I feel about them individually.Robert Herjavec - A cyber security genius, Robert is the most likable guy on planet Earth. He's unmatched in his kindness, fondness for animals and his blind willingness to try out any entrepreneur's idea. He's a father with the heart of a child, and most importantly he's an excellent businessman. Being the nicest Shark, it's really fun watching Robert get down and dirty which does happen occasionally between fellow Sharks and entrepreneurs alike, and he can definitely hold his own against some of the other, bigger Sharks.Lori Greiner - Queen of QVC bombshell Lori Greiner proves to be one of the more passive-aggressive and manipulative Sharks. Her charming persona is easy bait for entrepreneurs, especially paired with her humble smile, welcoming voice, and undeniable good looks. She's also an intelligent investor, using her TV leverage to score a lot of deals. She appears to be warm and fuzzy on the outside, but she definitely has a mischievous underbelly to her that sparks many unforgettable arguments amongst the Sharks.Barbara Corcoran - Real estate mogul and a cunning snake when it comes to business. It's lovely watching the enjoyment she gets out of screwing over the other Sharks, and it's a testament to her marketing skills because she is a phenomenal salesperson. You can tell that she's actually a great person at heart, constantly looking after her entrepreneurs and taking them under her wing. Also, her altercations with Mr. O'Leary are unmatched. Speaking of...Kevin O'Leary a.k.a. Mr. Wonderful - The Sharkiest of Sharks, this man lives and breathes money. He's a wine connoisseur and knows everything about everything. He's the epitome of both a venture capitalist and a wine snob. He's blunt, he's rude, unforgiving, ruthless, but most of all, he's hilarious. I can't count the times I got stomach pains from laughing at the things Kevin says. Whether it's about complaining about his tastevin (which is a story in itself) or blatant dry sarcasm, everything this man says is pure gold. He's also a brilliant salesman and an aggressive investor, known for his infamous royalty deals.Daymond John - This laid-back fashion guru can be quiet and unassuming one minute but eloquent and aggressive the next. He's very smart and chooses his investments wisely. He's truly an interesting character because he's insightful and understanding of entrepreneurs, going so far as to follow one out of the Tank to convince he and his wife that he wants the best for their family.Mark Cuban - The Big Kahuna, Mavericks owner, tech king, down-to-earth billionaire. This man is one of the hardest workers and smartest people on the planet. He's a listener first and foremost, speaking only when he needs information or when something needs to be said. He also causes the most controversy between the Sharks because his net worth ($3 billion) is far higher than anyone else's so he has the freedom to jump into someone's deal last minute and steal it right from under their nose. He has the money to spare, and while some of his investments are crapshoots, his thought process on getting to his conclusions are truly fascinating. He gives the show character, as every Shark does, and the chemistry between them all is incredible.There's not much else to say. I've learned so much by watching this show, and as is said many times in the show, Shark Tank is proof that the American dream is still alive and well.

zack_wall As an entrepreneur myself, I've dealt with investors and VC's, and I can honestly say that the Sharks are a great representation of real-life. They come across as harsh, money-grubbing, and greedy most of the time. But the kicker is that in the world of investing, you have to be this way and more, or else you get railroaded by the guys willing to go the extra mile. Often times I feel the Sharks do a great job of rooting out the good businesses from the ones that likely will crash and burn. I've observed that they'll usually ask for a majority percentage in the company if the presenter is somebody who hasn't really proved themselves in the wide market. To me this is absolutely fair, because the return is that the presenter has the opportunity to work with a partner who's made millions or billions of dollars, and provides a wealth of knowledge and experience. In short, if you're a start-up or recent start-up, you might not want to go on this show, because you'll likely give up more of your company than you want to. If you have a tried and true product, and need extra cash to expand or market yourself, this is a great opportunity. For viewers with interests in business or who want to learn more about business, I highly recommend Shark Tank. It's educational, smart, creative, and ultimately worthy of your time.

davenja Even though I do agree with the other reviews that the sharks can be a little hard on some of the people making their sales pitches, I have to disagree with the fact that this would be enough of a reason to not watch the show to begin with. Some of the people who do have legitimately good ideas do not get any offers. This seems to be for rather obvious reasons some times, the people don't want to let the sharks in on the entire business, they over estimate the value of their ideas, etc. But on the other hand, even if these people walk away with out a deal, they do get something of great value having been on the show. They get national attention which can (and has) led to other investors for their ideas. I like to watch the show just to see all the creative ideas people pitch to the sharks.
