Meg 2 - Die Tiefe

A bunch of separate script scenarios thrown together. Editing is terrible. Characters you dont know anything about due to no introduction and without explanation. Plot holes. The story doesnt evolve seamlessly. And what happened to shark carnage? I love jason statham movies. A d i love shark movies. But its just more of JS usual movie types that this time just wasnt that good. The underwater scenes were getting good but its like they just didnt know what to do with it. While there was some fun to it i dont think it was worth the money spent at a theatre. Wait for it to come out on streaming. Sorry.

Clearly Jason Statham just did this movie for the money. The story is ridiculously bad, I mean seriously bad! Statham is like a constipated statue the whole time. The CGI is cheap nasty and completely unrealistic. The only saving grace that is fantastic & I mean FANTASTIC is when the credits rolled. This movie is everything that is wrong with Hollywood, regurgitating stories and using bad actors, bad producers & bad CGI. Would anyone in Hollywood ever stop this idiocy forever. Don't go see the Meg it's awful. Not one bit entertaining, it was made as a money magnet but I for one don't see the pull of it. Avoid it, it's a waste of time and money.

I wanted to like this, I really did, it has everything, giant creature, Statham, shark, but this is just so boring.

The problem is, it hits every cliché. Annoying kid, paint by the number villain, a predictable plot. Unlikable characters who all behave like cartoon characters.

I liked the first movie and was looking forward to the sequel, but the irritating characters and lazy [;it just didn't do it for me.

I don't mind popcorn movies where you park your brain at the door, but they are usually fun. I think that is the problem here, it just was not fun. Statham is the best thing about this movie, he always turns in a reliable performance. The rest of the cast are so forgettable, in the end I was cheering for the shark.

If I want a good shark movie, I will watch Jaws.

The first impression of The Meg 2: The Trench (2023) is that this was hard to watch. There were dumbfounded scenes that did not make any sense led by decision making. The kills were not that good especially since it is a PG-13 movie. The only parts that I liked are Jason Statham and his great acting and the antagonists getting killed off. Other than that, I was ready to leave the theater. It really questioned me on how does the protagonists keep on surviving after questionable events. I honestly liked the first one better because it was not that bad of a shark movie. The sequel, however, just made it worse. I am surprised that this film was allowed to make it in Dolby Cinema since it only allows good or great movies in the auditorium. Overall, The Meg 2: The Trench is pretty bad with its scenes and kills. I would recommend to stay away from this movie.

Don't believe these fake reviews by probably paid, semi-professional writers who say the movie is good. This movie was one big bore with no thought at all put into it. It's just a quick cash grab rebounding off the first one. You'll have more entertainment watching paint dry. I myself have more enjoyment spoon feeding my disabled, hunchbacked cousin pudding. The shark in Sharknado looks more realistic than this creation made by some CGI intern at the local community college. No cares about quality content anymore and it's sad for the avid film goer...This is an unbiased review from a real person who loves movies.
