Meg 2: The Trench is directed by Ben Wheatley (In the Earth, Free Fire), from a screenplay by Jon Hoeber & Erich Hoeber (The Meg, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts) and Dean Georgaris (The Meg, Lara Croft: Toom Raider – The Cradle of Life), and a screen story by Dean Georgaris and Jon Hoeber & Erich Hoeber, based on the novel The Trench by Steve Alten.
Meagan writes in her review for Bloody Disgusting, “Ben Wheatley goes full throttle on the B-movie spectacle, packing the nearly two-hour runtime to the gills with aquatic horror madness and nonstop entertainment.” Meagan continues, “It’s hard to get upset about a big summer blockbuster sequel releasing in 2023 with the schlocky sensibilities of ’80s aquatic horror.”
“It’s dumb and it knows it.”
