'The Meg' Cast Dives Deep With IMDb
'The Meg' Cast Dives Deep With IMDb
IMDb spoke to Jason Statham, Ruby Rose, and the rest of the cast to prepare you for ar-Meg-geddon.
Storyline
Five years ago, expert sea diver and Naval Captain Jonas Taylor encountered an unknown danger in the unexplored recesses of the Mariana Trench that forced him to abort his mission and abandon half his crew. Though the tragic incident earned him a dismissal from service, what ultimately cost him his career, his marriage and any semblance of honor was his unsupported and incredulous claims of what caused it - an attack on his vessel by a mammoth, 70-foot sea creature, believed to be extinct for more than a million years. But when a submersible lies sunk and disabled at the bottom of the ocean - carrying his ex-wife among the team onboard - he is the one who gets the call. Whether a shot at redemption or a suicide mission, Jonas must confront his fears and risk his own life and the lives of everyone trapped below on a single question: Could the Carcharodon Megalodon - the largest marine predator that ever existed - still be alive - and on the hunt? —Warner Brothers

Mediocre and Preditable
Jason Statham deserves much better role than this average and predictable movie. The Chinese actors speak English with typical Chinese accents and they need a lot of improvement for their acting skills. The only plus point was the occasional scares from the extinct dinosaur Megalodon which were extremely huge and much better than the great white JAWS but other than that the plot was very predictable.
