Factual error: Our heroes find a boat belonging to shark poachers, smashed to pieces by the Meg. Floating about in the debris are the bodies of a number of dead sharks. Sharks do not have swim bladders and dead sharks do not float - they sink.

It's giant shark (s) verses tasty humans in this Science Fiction action film starring Jason Stratham as a weary rescue diver who has to get past past trauma and loss, rising to the occasion and becoming a hero once again when prehistoric predatory fish from the depths of the pacific ocean threaten oceanographic researchers, hapless swimmers, and a tiny dog! Fast-paced, with action and even humor, boasting pretty good CGI sea-life and practical effects, The Meg swims up and takes a sizable bite out of boredom! Is it a nod to Jaws and other fish-from-Hell films-YES, but it's a fun trip under the waves, so don't let this one sink out of sight under the sea. Give it a look.
Jonas Taylor: You're going to tell me your story and I'm going to say no. You're going to offer me money and I'm going to say no. You're going to try to appeal to my better nature and I'm still going to say no because I don't have one.
