The Meg

After seeing #blackkklansman yesterday, I needed to escape and #themeg is definitely an escape! It’s a big budget B Movie. Something you would of thought the guys who make Sharknado would of made (if they had 100 million dollars) instead of the director of “National Treasure”. The film is really fun. It’s really entertaining, the script is decent, the cast is great, it’s definitely a good time. It’s not really a horror movie like Jaws or Deep Blue Sea. I can compare it to the film “Aliens”. It’s more of an adventure film. It’s not too scientific where you question everything, I find everything believable. Where Skyscraper went wrong, this film got right! Jason Statham was an actually champion swimmer before he became an actor so this part works for him. Def a must see in theaters. If you can, see it in 3D!

I had to go back to finish @themegmovie, based on the science fiction horror of the same name. I had a good time when I started watching the film at the showcase cinema linden multiplex but had to leave early to record the freshest podcast. The meg is a fun movie. What I didn’t get out of Jurassic World 2 (or the last few Jurassic Park sequels) I got out of this film. It’s not scary as I expected. I thought it could be as scary as Final destination but it has plenty of jump scares. Enough jump scares to give you your fix of suspense. I find the movie really entertaining. Someone said Jason Statham wasn’t a good fit for this film. He has no clue what he was talking about. He is perfect in this film. This film is an American-Chinese co-production and it shows (just like Skyscraper or Transformers the last knight) but this fits with the story, doesn’t feel forced. The film is very cliche tho. At times I feel like I’m watching a 100 million dollar Asylum studio movie (the guys who makes sharknado) but it doesn’t shy away from being the B movie that it is. It does it’s best to keep raising the stakes every 15 minutes before it get stale without ever needing a shot of Jason punching a shark (which for some reason imagined would happened). A lot of uh oh and oh shits moments leading to an OMG! Def wish I saw this on IMAX 3D. There’s 6 books in the series. Wouldn’t mind seeing this become a film franchise.
