One of the best creature features of the modern era is swimming to the top of HBO Max's streaming charts.

Meg 2: The Trench starring Jason Statham has found a global audience on Netflix, outperforming other streaming releases.

The Meg is the quintessential summer movie, and we all need it this summer more than ever.

This is not your regular Statham action vehicle, but curiously, it is more interesting than an average high-octane feature.
