The Pitch: Former Naval captain Jonas Taylor (Jason Statham) mounts a mission to rescue Chinese scientists from a 70-foot prehistoric shark, the Megalodon.
Why It's Ridiculous: It's Jason Statham taking on a shark, with a supporting cast including Ruby Rose and Rainn Wilson (aka Dwight from The Office), and is directed by the man responsible for Cool Runnings (Jon Turteltaub). What more do you really need to know?
Will It Be Any Good?: It depends solely on how seriously the movie takes itself. If it's campy and tongue-in-cheek (as many of Turteltaub's films are), then it could be fun, but if the tone is funereal and straight-faced, then just forget about it.
