Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

gerald-676-783504 When The Meg was annouced in the cinema release, I thought: I know this one!It was Megalodon for the year 2002Good entertainment, if you are shark fan.

amesmonde An underwater explosion occurs and a drilling system collapses uncovering a section of the ocean that contains prehistoric species, allowing the Carcharodon Megalodon to surface.Like Shark Hunter (2001) Megalodon borrows elements from Steven Altens MEG novel. With recycled special effects shots and suffering from pacing issues, Megalodon tries it's best to be entertaining and with a welcomed serious in tone. Under Pat Corbitt's direction some of the low budget special effects are well-done, including some make-up effects however there's an abundance of unnecessary bad shots (the snowstorm to name one) which bring the film down, Megalodon may have benefited from much more being left on the cutting room floor.Robin Sachs (Babylon 5) gives a good performance and notable talents are both Sheppard (Battlestar Galactica) and an unrecognisable Al Sapienza although limited by the script.Lacking any real tension it's too ambitious for its own good, less may have been more. Not as rounded than Shark Hunter but just as flawed - still it's worth watching if you're a Megalodon fan.

redhead9898 Okay, 'Megalodon' is better then other films about other films such as 'Shark attack 3: Megalodon' and 'Shark Hunter'.It opens up with a newscast where Maria Barrera is doing a report about shark attack and and oil stuff. With interviews from the head of it 'Peter Brazier' and 'Robert Amstrong' she ends up saying reporter 'christen Giddings' will be there for a week. The crew gets eaten to. The cgi and sound is great! I l o v e this m o v i-e it does not s u c k you h e a r that????? It i s a g r e a t s h a r k a t t a ck m o vi e! Watch it! I hope you will enjoy it as much as i did. It will be better then most shark attack films you will ever see. It goes next to Deep blue sea and shark attack 2!

Cedric Sagne If you were tempted to buy this on DVD, or pay for your seat, tough luck. Borrowed it from my local library and obviously this does not go anywhere near the now-cheesy-but-still-a-classic JAWS or the ABYSS from which it borrows.Why did I give 1 to "Narnia" and 2 to this? For the skill in making something terrible in both cases with: 1- loads of money and a worldwide manipulation campaign 2- no money and no marketing gurus behind.This is still something that does not deserve to be watched twice, maybe not even once. CGI is still something you would be proud of if you got it out of your own computer. If anything, this film illustrates the concept of George Lucas who claims that CGI and digital cinema will bring filming within the reach of new talents. These were not the ones he referred to, as the script, the actors, the special effects remain terrible (by today's standards... check King Kong 1933 and enjoy), but some classics were made on a shoestring and we saw worse stuff done by great actors and directors.It is no wonder this is as cheesy as it gets, but the Academy of Cinema also has its bad students.
