Five years ago, The Meg met expectations as a fairly entertaining time-squanderer about huge, prehistoric sharks. The trailers for the sequel (new director, more creatures) feature the sight of Jason Statham holding a barge-sized Megalodon at bay, on a dock, with his foot. Bring it, I thought. Time for a good-stupid movie with zero “think pieces” in its future.
So much for crazy expectations! In Meg 2: The Trench, Statham returns as Jonas, now an “eco-terrorist” protector of the seas from radioactive dumping and other indignities.
