The Meg just blew this out of the water


Now THAT is how you make a great shark film.

Don't get me wrong, Jaws is a classic but The Meg topped it in all areas: better cast of characters who are just as relatable, better action, more casualties helping setup the shark as a more villainous entity than on Jaws and of course a far more badass shark that is bigger, stronger and meaner.

No Jaws, no Meg. Winner by default: Jaws

While I enjoyed Meg a great deal, Jaws is far superior.

Silly comparison, one film made way back in 1975 with a small budget and crew on the open water with a mechanical shark which kept breaking down all the time.

A higher body count is generally the go-to to make up for a writer who turned out a thin plot and a director who can't sustain suspense.
