“Meg 2: The Trench” is a movie that screams: “Sequel! What do we do NOW?” Director Ben Wheatley's answer is to make everything bigger, and more: More Megs.
Before we, ahem, dive into our review of “Meg 2,” a few fun facts on the Megalodon, the titular real-life prehistoric shark, according to some unusually detailed production notes from the studio:
In any case, no Jack and Rose in this film, but there are plenty of other people who get swallowed, chomped on, or masticated indirected by Ben Wheatley, a film that screams: “Sequel! What do we do NOW?” And so there’s more, more and more. More Megs. More problems. More ludicrous plot points, more cartoonish villains, and more dialogue cheesier than an overripened Brie wheel left out on a picnic table.
Then there’s Meiying’s uncle, Jiuming Zhang an adventurer who doesn’t mind taking a few risks. For example, he decides to jump into the tank at his Mana One research facility to play around with the Meg they have in captivity. He almost dies in front of everyone, including Meiying, laughing off the danger.
This involves the team walking across the trench in EV suits quickly running out of oxygen, to get to a secret station where said villains are mining something — what, we don’t know, even when Jiuming briefly explains it and says a handful is worth $1 billion. “Billion with a B?” Jonas asks, in more of that crackling dialogue.
