Hello everyone, welcome back to another movie review and today, we'll be discussing... *sighs* Meg 2: The Trench (AKA DEFINITELY everyone's most anticipated movie of the summer!). I was not a fan of the first The Meg so I wasn't exactly chomping at the bits (*wink*) to go see this sequel. Admittedly though, the trailers for this made it look way more self-aware and bonkers fun than the previous one which was just taking itself weirdly seriously for a movie with such bad dialogue. However, the lack of press screenings and low initial reviews definitely did not amp my excitement. I've now seen the film and it's time to review it, and I will answer whether or not this one is "better" than the first one.
