Meg 2 Tries and Fails to Be Big, Dumb Fun
who seems to get it though. No, it’s not Jason Statham, who is very much going through the motions here. And no, it’s not the director. It’s supporting character DJ, played by actor Page Kennedy. DJ is a character returning from the firstlacks. Whenever he’s on screen, he’s a hilarious, over-the-top delight, and it feels as if the movie will join him for the ride. But alas, it never quite does.
He also doesn’t really become a big part of the movie until the final third, which is quite telling.is that it tries. Oh, does it try. The dialogue is always intentionally cheesy. There are numerous direct homages to famous films. Characters you assume to be heroes end up being villains. Statham kicks a shark in the face. All the pieces are there. But, in the end, all those commendable bits never gel together for a smooth, enjoyable ride.
