Honestly love that it looks like they're not even taking themselves seriously at this point. Just looks like a really fun shark movie.

[mrsundaymovies]

Of the three Megs they’ve seen that’s the biggest Meg they’ve ever seen!

[FelixMichaelT]

Once he was dodging thugs, now he's dodging giant sharks

Jason is a legend.

[gooblord]

Who needs the US navy when we have Jason Statham on a jet ski with a sword

[Saiyan]

Perfect example of how not every movie needs to be a masterpiece to enjoy. Cant wait to see this

[desupernoodle]

I love these kinds of movies where they know that they aren't serious and just role with it. Really funny to watch.

[kingjamesc]

I like the fact that we’re not only having megs but also more creatures in this

[viceregaldust]

I just watched this movie a few days ago, and I'm not even gonna lie; I never thought I needed this much camp until this movie came out. This was the most stupid fun I've ever had in a long time. It was so funny, action-packed, and fun, and I mean all of that in the stupidest, but best way possible. I loved every second of it. We really need more movies like this, movies that don't take themselves seriously, are stupid, and just an absolutely blast.

[AlexKnightVancouver]

This movie sends an inspiring message to young children. One day when you grow up, if you work real hard, you too can kick a shark.

[erickamakeeaina]

I never would have guessed there would be a sequel to this. They seem to be embracing the silliness and that is great.

[LightStreak]

To those that were not expecting a sequel, The Meg series is based on a book, just like Jaws and Jurassic Park are. Although not many people know that the first Jaws movie was based on a book by Peter Benchley. The Meg books, written by Steve Alten, have 8 sequels so far. The next one is called Meg: Purgatory, which should be released this year or next year. This one is based on "The Trench" which was published in 1999.

Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror (The Meg movie is based on this book) (Book released in 1997, movie released in 2018)

The Trench (Meg 2: The Trench is based on this book) (Book released in 1999, movie will be released this year)

Meg: Primal Waters (The next movie after this one will obviously be called Meg 3: Primal Waters) (Released in 2004)

Meg: Hell's Aquarium (Meg 4: Hell's Aquarium, what else would the movie be called?) (2009)

Meg: Origins (I doubt this one will be made into a movie, it is a prequel story about Jonas Taylor's first encounter with the megalodon a few years before the first book that led up to his alleged psychosis) (2011)

Meg: Nightstalkers (2016)

Meg: Generations (The most recent sequel for now) (2020)

Meg: Purgatory (????)

[achillesglacia]

this movie: never skip leg you can push against the bite force of a megalodon😂

[thereallg]

*I wasn’t sure if there would be a meg 2 or not. But now seeing this, I’m ready.*

[bewarethebat]

I'm genuinely surprised there's gonna be a 2nd film. Really does look like a fun movie at this point, excited to watch

[makotonarukami]

Films like these should continue to exist. It's not suppose to be taken seriously, just a summer movie to appreciate the fictional world of summer movie blockbuster mindset. You go to these to escape everyday mundane life, and eat popcorn together. Plus, the staff that worked on this film get to test out there skills for later projects that will require a more serious tone in a non-mega film. It's important to "Let loose" from time to time.

[zorancabrilo]

Deep blue sea from 1999 is best shark movie ever.

[moon.mp]

2:00 Jason Statham stopping an enormous shark from eating him with his bare foot is the most Jason Statham thing ever. 🤣

[GdsPerfectldiot]

I just love how they didn’t take everything seriously. But the CGI doesn’t look any bad at all. I’m ready for this!

[kyttari.]

I love that they're not taking this seriously and they're just going all out to make it as ridiculous as possible. I can't wait to watch it😆

[lyubomirkaradzhov]

Love the scene where Jason Statham fights the terrorists AND the Meg at the same time. That is Chuck Norris level
