From a technical standpoint, The Meg (2018) was a fest for the eyes the CGI and special effects were very crisp and believable, except for a shot near the end of the film involving the meg itself and Statum.
It was plainly obvious certain characters were written for the sole purpose of having an action scene transpire by making costly decisions or for plot convenience. Li Bingbing's addition was an obvious attempt to appeal to the foreign audience, and the rest of the supporting cast gave forgettable performances. And besides Shuya Sophia Cai's adorable Meiying, this is where the praise for performances end. Statham was a charismatic badass and stole every scene in which he was physically present, and without him, the film would have failed. Statham carried the film from the opening scene, all the way through until the end credits. Not all is grim luckily, the film's lead, Jason Statham, delivered a very pleasant performance. The film's lack of character development, along with less than stellar performances by the majority of the cast, ultimately hindered my ability to feel any remorse or sympathy for certain characters, nor did I develop any emotional connection with characters. A bighearted and delicious novel about family, ambition, and opportunity, Summer Stage is the must-read book of the summer.While this film is very enjoyable unfortunately, The Meg (2018) is a throwaway summer blockbuster and mediocre at best. As they work together to ensure the production is a success, Amy, Sam, and Timothy are forced to grapple with their desires for recognition and fortune, stand up for what they believe art and fame actually mean, and discover what they really want out of life. Timothy, a successful and well-loved actor, is directing a summer production at a storied Block Island theater-and his famous ex-wife has the lead role. Her sudden arrival is shrouded in secrets, and Sam refuses to open up to her mother, deciding instead to join her uncle on Block Island for the summer.
Sam, Amy's daughter, was a Disney child star who continued her pursuit for fame in a Manhattan TikTok house. Now a high school English teacher and occasional drama director, Amy takes on the production manager role for her brother's play in an effort to mend rifting family relationships. Summer Stage is a five-star novel that deserves a standing ovation! And Meg Mitchell Moore has a permanent place on my list of favorite authors."-Kristy Woodson Harvey, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Wedding Veil Amy Trevino, a former aspiring playwright, has stayed close to her Rhode Island hometown while her famous brother, Timothy Fleming, pursued and achieved his Hollywood dreams.
