Review of The Meg (2018)

By Matthew Passantino (89) for Film Threat (5,156) on 10 Aug 2018

The Meg had free license to show up in theaters and just be a stupid spectacle and it doesn't capitalize on that at all…

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Norman Wilner (961) for NOW Toronto (1,621) on 09 Aug 2018

The script - which barely resembles Steve Alten's 1997 bestseller - mashes up a dozen hokey 50s creature features where scientists accidentally…

Review of The Meg (2018)

Ultimately, the only one in here with a shred of recognizable humanity is the gigantic, prehistoric shark itself…

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Adam Graham (720) for Detroit News (2,682) on 09 Aug 2018

Jason Statham takes on a giant shark in The Meg, a fun-dumb splash of summer popcorn entertainment that manages to be more fun than dumb…

By Teddy Durgin (233) for Screen It! (1,437) on 09 Aug 2018

The Meg has its moments of fun. And it certainly delivers some spectacle…

Review of The Meg (2018)

The film is restrained; it's not as gory as you'd expect…

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Mike Mcgranaghan (1,821) for Aisle Seat (1,783) on 09 Aug 2018

It's never going to win an Oscar - unless the Academy starts giving out awards for Best Picture Where Jason Statham Fights a Shark - but if…

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Dan Lybarger (786) for Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (1,391) on 09 Aug 2018

Review of The Meg (2018)

By James Verniere (1,180) for Boston Herald (1,433) on 09 Aug 2018

Welcome to Jurassic Shark. Glub, glub. A Dwayne Johnson film with Jason Statham as idiot's Captain Ahab…

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Francisco Marinero (68) for El Mundo (Spain) (301) on 09 Aug 2018

The magnitude of the production doesn't conceal [a] poor script overly inspired by Jaws. [Full review in Spanish]…

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Robert Horton (590) for HeraldNet (Everett, WA) (288) on 09 Aug 2018

It's neither fish nor completely (sorry) foul…

It would've benefitted by being more dumb…

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Adam Nayman (350) for The Ringer (285) on 09 Aug 2018

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Matthew Lickona (530) for San Diego Reader (713) on 09 Aug 2018

Maybe director John Turteltaub thought the barrage of pathos and yuks would distract from the fact that his star is a very big fish that is…

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Rashid Irani (192) for Hindustan Times (753) on 09 Aug 2018

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Christy Lemire (1,262) for What the Flick?! (134) on 09 Aug 2018

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Sara Michelle Fetters (1,688) for MovieFreak.com (1,674) on 09 Aug 2018

Review of The Meg (2018)
