The Meg

leider muss ich, nicht ganz ohne scham, zugeben das mich dieser eintopf aus zutaten wie jaws, the abyss, deepstar six und deep blue sea deutlich mehr unterhalten halt als er eigentlich sollte. knapp die erste hälfte, bevor man den namensgeber des films überhaupt zu gesicht bekommt, fand ich sogar eigentlich ganz ansprechend. insbesondere die sequenz wo das tauchboot das erste mal die thermokline-wolke durchdringt ließen bei mir ein paar the abyss vibes aufkeimen. in der zweiten hälfte des films bleibt davon allerdings nicht mehr viel übrig, sondern es werden nur die üblichen klischees eines... read more

5 megalodon. no seré yo quien salga a defender esta película, y es que uno sabe que va a ver aquí. no engaña, es lo que es, y cuando sabes lo que vas a ver, hay partes que se disfrutan, sobre todo el final. el megatiburón está muy bien conseguido no canta tanto el cgi. probablemente la mejor pelicula de tiburones cabrones desde 1975. read more

the most unbelievable part of the movie (and there are a lot) is that the dog survived. read more

well... the concept at the beginning is not bad. i mean, i like the idea of a rescue in the deepest point of the earth, like the martian but in the mariana trench. but no, the movie can't stay with that concept for more than 40 minutes, because it doesn't know how, and decides to go for something more conventional: copying jaws. the funny thing is that the film toys a bit with the idea of being a character-driven suspense film, but as soon as the shark leaves the depths, it forgets that almost completely, and becomes like jaws, but without heart. but it gets worse as soon as the second shark... read more

Maverick diver who's had a tragic brush with a sea monster in the past joins the crew of a scientific sea platform to stop a 23 meters long prehistoric shark from wreaking havoc. Effective when it comes to conveying the deep-space eerieness of unfathomable ocean depths, "The Meg" quickly falls back into familiar action grounds: a few moderately tense scenes should be enough to keep unexpecting viewers from dozing off, but the movie is not exciting enough to claim a significant position in a list of "Jaws" rip-offs (check out The Shallows instead) nor is it outrageous enough to compete with... read more

The Meg takes itself far too seriously when it should just be a fun romp about a giant shark and the romance between Statham and his female co star fails because they clearly have no chemistry whatsoever. characters survive situations that should kill them, and Statham killing the shark single-handedly in the climax is too ludicrous for words read more

My quick rating - 6;4/10. Borderline horror due to a giant shark attacking. The movie itself is quite good though. It looks fantastic throughout with the underwater lab and the surroundings used. Statham is called to perform an underwater rescue after an undiscovered "deeper" part of the ocean is found beneath a thermal cloud at the bottom of the sea. I did like how it really isn't that unbelievable to think it could happen and that there would be life down there never seen before. And after they accidentally piss off the megalodon down there and it sneaks up through the cloud; now the crew... read more

Reaching new levels of cringe dialogue. For a movie about Jason Statham vs. a Megalodon this is pretty boring read more

The agenda is strong here. My favorite was the young girl who built the multimillion dollar station. Lol they worked hard to counter the lead being a white male. Mary Sues galore. read more

scarier than Jaws because the shark's a lot bigger read more

Bom filme, gosto muito do Jason Statham. Apesar de ser um filme genérico consegue ser competente com o que se propõe a fazer. Aguardamos continuação em 2023 read more

Enjoyed The Meg, it's exactly what I expected it to be. read more

An interesting idea diluted by another by-the-numbers Jason Statham yarn we have seen many times before. read more
