Review of The Meg (2018) by Cody T — 24 Aug 2018

I actually quite enjoyed this movie. It was pretty decent. 3 out of 5 stars for sure. 6.5/10.The special effects were surprisingly good and the shark looked amazing. I loved the idea of Megalodon. I watched it in 3D and there were actually some really good 3D parts.

Better 3D movie i've seen in a while. *spoilers* Like the part where the shark bites that ball and a piece flew at you, it made me jump. A lot of decent jump scares as well. I enjoyed the storyline and they didn't try to set up the ending for a sequel because I feel like this is good the way it is.

One and one only. There were a lot of funny parts as well LOL like DJ was super funny and Meiying was pretty funny when she was telling DJ to shush haha. There were some parts, though, where the acting was a little off putting like, for example, when the shark bites the glass when Meiying was playing.

Her acting when she got scared wasnt believable to me, though she is a kid, but also when they ran to her the acting just seem super weird like as if they often see HUGE bites all the time. I dont know how to explain it, but either way I still really liked the film.

Decent video shots and there was some good actors/actresses in it. Jason Statham was a weird pick, but I must say it still worked. The film never bored me and there were really some good killing scenes where the sharks eats people in cool ways.

I definitely wished the shark ate more people when it found all of those civilians swimming. It was still a decent film and I enjoyed it. Not something I would see twice, but fun nonetheless.
