No points for originality or new,fresh ideas here,this is a strictly by the book creature feature that is knowing absurd and knows it.
Whereas The Meg 2 was humourless in its approach with a silly script and more and more money behind it.
Don't look for any characterisation, depth or even pathos- there isn't any.
It begins well enough, to hook the audience in but then it sags when introducing the empty,vacuous secondary characters who aren't really well drawn and for a film about a shark it doesn't really add the necessary gore or tension.
This is a big letdown for Netflix audiences who are looking for stupid action, blood and gore with their pizza and beers on a Friday night.
