If you're like me, you probably weren't aware that 2018's The Meg somehow managed to swim away with $530 million at the worldwide box office; a number barely a handful of titles manage to achieve in the post-COVID era. For a setup that held such great promise, many felt let down by the film's bizarrely serious tone and lack of bloody mayhem. Now the inevitable sequel has arrived, and, frustratingly, it's a follow-up that once again fails to take advantage of its outlandish premise. Another strangely bloodless affair that's beset...

At this point in his career, it's rather pointless to criticise Jason Statham for essentially playing the same hardboiled, gruff role in every single one of his films.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it, right? Overloaded with spectacular stunts, epic chase sequences, and brutal fistfights, it's just big, dumb, ridiculous fun that goes well with...

While its campy, jokey trailers and posters may portray a delicious sense of self-awareness, 'The Meg' ultimately fails to live up to its advertising. The Warner Bros. marketing team may have deemed this to be a silly film, but it doesn't seem as if anyone working on the actual production were on the same page. The film consistently takes itself so damn seriously, making it rather difficult to elicit any experience of fun from its audience. In saying that, you still get what you came for. Statham vs. megalodon....
