Movie Reviews

  • the big-budget deep-sea thriller is nothing but bloodless summer filler. Unsure if Jon Turteltaub wants to have some fun and jump the Sharknado or make a seriously gory fish fest, director Jon Turteltaub has surfaced with nets empty
    1.5 of 4 by Brad Wheeler [Globe and Mail ]
  • despite all the blood in the water, this supersized fish tale is nowhere near as fun or frenzied as you'll want it to be; The Meg [is] a disappointment for fans of pure summer nonsense
    2 of 5 by Joshua Rothkopf [Time Out New York ]
  • decades after "Jaws" turned the conceit of a water-bound carnivore into pure horror based on what you don't see, "The Meg" falls in step with today's CGI-laden obsessions by letting it all hang out
    Review rate : C by Eric Kohn [Indiewire ]
  • "The Meg," isn't sure how seriously you'll take it, or how seriously it should take itself. The result is a movie that wobbles unsteadily between straight-faced action epic and winking self-mockery
    2 of 4 by Rafer Guzman [Newsday ]
  • "The Meg," a fun-dumb splash of summer popcorn entertainment that manages to be more fun than dumb
    Review rate : B- by Adam Graham [Detroit News ]
  • "The Meg" makes giant killer sharks boring; It lacks the terror of Steven Spielberg's 1975 classic and the outlandish humor of "Sharknado." It's not fun, it's not serious, it's not scary. It is stupid
    by Johnny Oleksinski [New York Post ]
  • "The Meg" isn't the worst high-concept, low-value movie to hit multiplexes this summer, but it has the distinction of being the first movie to involve Jason Statham and/or a killer beastie that can be categorized as deadly dull
    2 of 5 by David Fear [Rolling Stone ]
  • "The Meg" isn't nearly as good; The CGI is mediocre at best, and a romantic subplot..is sentimental hooey. But it is ridiculous, cheesy popcorn fun. And Jason Statham, knows exactly what kind of guilty pleasure he's signed on for
    Review rate : B- by Chris Nashawaty [Entertainment Weekly ]
