Triple A Review: The Meg (2018)

This movie is a typical Hollywood style sci-fi film. The experience of watching in the IMAX 3D cinema is pretty awesome. I really enjoyed. Additionally, it is still very good choice for you to watch it on your TV or your laptop. I am pretty sure that "The Mega" will bring you a different deep sea experience. If you are a big fan of Friends Hollywood's big commercial films, you must watch it to experience the power of a giant tooth shark.

"The Meg" is more like a monster film. The audience can visually see the huge size of the shark body. The mystery disappeared, replaced by the fear and fear of desperate screaming. Actually, "The Meg" was adapted from the novel of the same name by American writer Steve Allen. The film tells the story of Chinese researchers met prehistoric monsters in the Mariana Trench before the rescue. The US Marine Corps diving experts teamed up to fight the giant tooth shark. The film is directed by Jon Turteltaub, who has directed "National Treasure (2004)", "Last Vegas (2013)" and "Disney’s The Kid (2000)". The cast is also a surprise, starring Jason Statham, Li Bingbing, Rainn Wilson, and Ruby Rose.

Megalodon, in Greek, means "huge teeth." It has a maximum body length of more than 20 meters and a weight of 70 tons. It is much larger than the great white shark. The great white shark and the whale shark are much smaller and less aggressive, compared to megalodon. Even the dragons in Jurassic World cannot compete with megalodon. This species, living in the late Eocene to 15 million years ago to the early Pleistocene 2.6 million years ago, is the ocean's top predator in its survival. Many paleontologists call it the most powerful creature in the history of the earth.

How should humans protect themselves in the face of a giant megalodon with great lethality? Is it possible for humans to escape from megalodon? Even though human beings are small, but armed with high technology, we have the capital and ability to compete with the megalodon. Human and sharks are no longer zoo-like "viewing" and "being watched", but become a deadly relationship between "hunting" and "being-hunted."

The film not only reflects individual heroism, but also the spirit of collective collaboration. The division of labor of the crew members is different, and it is only after the concerted efforts to resolve the crisis of the giant megalodon. For example, when Statham was trying to rescue other team members, a team member chose to sacrifice himself in order to attract the attention of the giant megalodon.

The whole movie has a very high degree of control over the rhythm of the story. When you think you can finally take a breath, the next second shot will make you bloody. When you think that the megalodon is dead and packs up and is ready to leave, what you see next will tell you that the story is not that simple, and the good looks are still behind. In a serious and tense atmosphere, there are several jokes, which truly soothe the nerves of the audience. This is pretty awesome movie for those who like typical Hollywood style sci-fi audiences.
