A few of them are completely unnecessary. None of the characters are well written, too bland to be interesting and too annoying with dumb decision making to be likeable. Worst of all is a dreadful Bingbing Li, with a character that bores and annoys and approaching the character in a way that's completely wrong and out of kilter with everything else. On the other hand, the rest of the acting is a mess. It's pretty decent visually, nicely shot in particular, the music fits well and Jason Statham brings charisma to his role and is believable in that aspect.

The best character, kid you not, is the shark which had personality and one that was not too scary or goofy. 'The Meg' does start off reasonably well with a sense of unsettlement and the climactic scene is pretty entertaining. That doesn't stop 'The Meg' from being potential unfulfilled. Is it better than any of the shark-creature films from SyFy and The Asylum? Oh yes, so much better, now those are mostly abominations. Instead, 'The Meg' turned out to be poorly written and mostly devoid of tension and fun, one where one is rooting for the shark than any of the human characters. Wanted some guilty pleasure film, a kind of turn-the-brain-off-at-the-door sort of film. Apparently 'The Meg' had a lot of studio interference, meaning that what was initially intended (and from the sounds of it what was initially intended would have made it a much better film) was not seen in the film, and it shows in the final product. It did look from the cover that it would be some kind of guilty pleasure fun, which was my ideal kind of film for the day. My main reasons for seeing 'The Meg' were that there are classic shark films out there (there is an obvious example that won't be named by means of fairness in the review but has been mentioned elsewhere) and that it was part of my many quests to see as many 2018 films as possible.
