Jun 24, 2024 Full Review Meg 2: The Trench | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Laura Babiak Observer What’s perhaps most damning about this big dumb shark movie, however, is how little it actually pays attention to its fine finned friends. Rated: 2/4 Oct 20, 2023 Full Review Meg 2: The Trench | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Sergio Burstein Los Angeles Times Definitively edible. [Full review in Spanish] Oct 5, 2023 Full Review Meg 2: The Trench | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Calum Cooper Cinerama Film Extinction was a kinder fate to Megalodon than this megalo-dung of a film. Rated: 1/5 Jul 19, 2024 Full Review Meg 2: The Trench | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Chad Collins Dread Central Meg 2: The Trenchis more meg, good, bad, and indifferently. Whether this franchise can sustain the swelling digital carnage remains to be seen, though as an exercise in creature feature excessThe Trenchdelivers.

Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/24/23 Full Review Mr. Hollywood Not as fun as the first one but overall not a bad way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Nothing new here but what else can you expect from a movie about a large type shark Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/21/23 Full Review TotallyNotTheMeg I looked at the reviews for this movie before seeing it and the diversity between the 1 star and 5 star reviews with the exact same reasons for loving/hating it only made me more excited. Its silly, big, corny, dramatic, and one of the most fun shark movies I have ever seen. Definitely worth the watch! 🦈 Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
