<em>'Meg 2: The Trench'</em> is rubbish. It's just the original with added (lousy) human antagonists and, eh, a giant octopus? I was zoned out by that point if I'm honest, it's no Kraken from <em>'Pirates of the Caribbean'</em>, that's for sure. Jason Statham is forgettable in this too.
That's a big problem, given he is the glue that ought to hold these films together. In fact, the best person in this flick is Page Kennedy, who is amusing and has one cool fight scene; good (if minimal) character development, that. Sophia Cai and Cliff Curtis remain the best of the rest.
It's just all so dull, I was totally uninterested by the end; I felt my eyes roll hard when they revealed Fun Island, which is practically a carbon copy of what happens at the end of <em>'The Meg'</em>. With all the negatives noted, it still didn't overtly annoy me; so (narrowly) avoids a lower score.
I forgot, until now, that Ben Wheatley also directed <em>'Free Fire'</em> (5/10) and <em>'Kill List'</em> (3/10)... sheesh. Fingers crossed that one day I'll see one of his movies and enjoy it.
