I know Nikki was stressing, but I was laughing my ass off at her reactions....lol

Toshi is such a hero without even a second thought he sacrificed his life, a short lived but definitely a memorable and respected character

I don't why but i laughed when that kid at the sea got so calm and ate his lollipop after the shark got distracted while everyone else was freaking out , it was like a reward for him 🤣

The ocean is the embodiment of "Love it from a distance."

I have thalassophobia (fear of the ocean) and nothing scares me more than movies like this. I love it.

Another good campy shark movie is Deep Blue Sea. Highly dramatic and really amplifies that possibility of drowning. Definitely recommend.

Pippet is the name of the dog that was in Jaws. I believe it was a black lab. It was just in one beach scene where some guy was calling for his missing dog. There was a stick floating in the water he was playing catch with. Here, to pay homage, the named that tiny little dog Pippet too.

Nikki: makes a joke about closing the hatch Statham: closes the hatch Nikki: oh shit i didn’t think he was going to actually do it

This movie was really slept on. It's so funny and just the right balance of exciting and dramatic and it KNOWS the tropes. So you get the set up, the expectation, and then just the right amount of subversion.

I love the references from jaws, like the dog named pippin or the kids mom letting him go back into the water.

Not gonna lie, I saw the thumbnail and immediately wanted to see Nikki's reaction to Pippin 😂

I like that while this movie has some of the outrageous and comedic moments that so many shark movies do, it also has grounded characters with heartfelt moments. Several of the deaths in this movie are able to succeed at making you feel sad for the characters

Oh, its such a joy watching Nikki react to movies!😅

I remember reading this book after getting grounded and it was my fathers kind of big proud moment. I sentence my kid to his room for two weeks so he just starts reading; and reading a book called 'MEG' It took them 30 years to make it into a movie. Glad he made it from there to the theater. Miss ya pop.

Like many others have said, the dog was a nod to Jaws. My guess is that the dog survives because he was so small, he just got brushed aside by the wave rather than getting swallowed God i love watching Nikki's reactions (and watching Steven knowing she's going to react and watching/waiting for it himself😂😂)

The Monterrey Bay Aquarium in CA has a viewing window so you can look into the ocean and see the wildlife from underwater, then walk out the door and onto the street. Much safer than an underwater rig in the middle of the ocean.

The Meg 2 just came out recently. I haven't seen it. Pippin survived because she just kept swimming (ala Dory)

Another recommendation (but NOT for your kids!) is 'Underwater' with Kristen Stewart. You guys would hate it but it is one of the best horror movies I've ever seen. Face your fears - I dare you to watch it! 😄

Man can't resist tapping the glass on the aquarium, metaphorically speaking.

I lost a bet and had to watch Sharknado with my niece. The bet was only for the first ten minutes but I just kept watching. It was exactly as bad as expected but I ended up watching two sequels too. I highly recommend it for mindless entertainment and would love to watch you guys react to it. Did anyone else watch that movie?

When Nikki stated her fears at the beginning of the reaction I immediately thought "They've GOT to do "The Abyss"! It's a terrific movie but Steven would probably have to do a little handholding. 💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙

Sometimes you just need a good old-fashioned monster movie. Also, Octonauts are awesome!

The dog was a homage to Jaws. The dog in Jaws was also called Pippin.

there's a second movie to this that came out this summer its called meg 2: the trench if you guys are interested .

I like to think the dog slipped through the sharks teeth because he’s so tiny. Lol great review

i just love how nikki freaks out when she's watching horror movies or the meg and Steven's laughing. it can be so funny. But great reaction. I just watched strays, which was so funny.

In the end it turned out much better than I expected. I will 100% admit that I dismissed it unfairly.

This is my favorite type of movie I went into this with really low expectations and ended up having a really fun time. The exact opposite of a lot of superhero movies lately.

Based on the 1997 novel of the same name by Steve Alten. A lot of directors were considered for the project between 2002 and 2015, which includes Eli Roth, Jan De Bont, and Guillermo Del Toro.

Don’t you worry Nikki. The second one is basically a mash up of the Meg, Jurassic park, and sharknado.

I laugh every time they predict the next scenes without knowing :D

I love this movie and I hope the second one is just as good

In case no one else points it out, the portrayal of the Megalodon is far bigger than it was in real life. And if you watch the sequel, it was not around in the time of the Dinosaurs. And as a final word. Since the only evidence of it's existence are it's teeth. There is no evidence whatsoever that Megalodon resembles a Great White Shark. Which is what everyone assumes, since both have teeth which are triangular in shape and have serrated edges.

So good to see you two react to this one! Here's hoping we'll put "King Arthur" (2004) and "Dragonheart" (1996) on the roster soon, they're great ones!

You guys should watch "MIDWAY" 2019. a historical movie, you guys wont regret

I finally saw this just a few months ago and now I've seen the sequel too lol. Shark movies are always fun. 🦈

Can’t remember if you’ve done ‘Deep blue sea’ yet- another shark movie I love!

You guys should see the news, a couple days ago they discovered a huge tentacle thing in the deepest darkest ocean it looks like one of those face huggers from the movie Alien.

Rewatching this makes me appreciate Nikki's anxiety way more! lol

Omg! Me, too! I'm terrified of drowning. I'm petrified of deep water and going over bridges that go over deep water. Odd that I like watching under water scary stuff. And I agree, the ocean is horrifying. I could never work any ocean jobs.

I laughed at the part where dude said "I can't swim! I'm sorry my body made me say that"

Hi Nikki and Steven I really love your reaction to the Meg movie🦈 It's my favorite shark movie and I hope you both watched the Meg 2 the trench next , Please tell us you're watching it next !!!!

"I want to keep all my toes!" - Niki 2023 😂

If you two liked this one, you should see the second Meg movie. Loved watching your reactions to this movie. Keep up the great videos guys.

Yall faces were priceless when the Meg eat the guy in the balloon. 😂😂😂. Love your channel.

This finaly is one of the best seasons finaly of all time !! It was priceless re-live the anxiety i felt by looking at your faces !! ❤

Started watching you guys because of SOA but now I enjoy watching your guys reactions too other things keep up the work

Fun Fact: "Pippin" in the name of the original dog that got taken in Jaws. Also the little fat boy is supposed to represent the boy that got taken on the raft in the same movie.

bro i love watching movies w yall dude 🤣🤣 i swear we have the same reactions lol i love the meg bro its perfect for a friday movie night or a suprise film w the bros lmaooo im ready for the next one

I have a movie recommendation for you to react to: QUARANTINE (2008), a really cool Found Footage-style horror film, with intense, brutal moments and a disturbing ending, you're going to enjoy it.

Imagine if one of the normal sharks ate the dog at the end 🤣

Watching movies with y'all is so much fun. I felt everything Nikki felt.😅😅😅😅😅😅

I can't wait for you two to watch The Meg 2. I am curious to see how you feel about it compared to part one.

This movie is the most fun! Perfect popcorn flick!

Literally me anytime animals are portrayed as "evil," "it's HOME INVASION" lol

Nikki for October: "The Towering Inferno" (1974) all star ensemble cast, no CGI "The Eiger Sanction" (1975) directed by Clint Eastwood, no CGI "Where Eagles Dare" (1968)

I Can't wait for you to see the sequel. it turns up the insanity to 11. This movie I had been waiting for literally over 20 years. the first book in the Meg series was published in the 90's and the author, Steve Alten, had been pushing hard for a film version to get made. Sadly every time it kept ending up in development hell. It got close to being made once, but then Deep Blue Sea came out, and not only stepped on this films toes, but also failed at the box office, which killed development. Finally they were able to get this made, and now a sequel, and hopefully the rest of the series gets made. I think the film does a good job of adapting the book. there are alot of changes, but most are either not that big of a deal, or in many cases, actually made the story better. the ex-wife character was changed completely. she was an utter b**** in the book, and you were glad when got eaten. (the dog pippin actually belonged to her in the book, and i THINK it survived, too, tho i could be wrong) the "twist" was kind of there. in the book it was originally jonas, and terry's brother that go to the trench (terry was what sunyin's character was named in the book, they made her and her family chinese for the film cause they funded the movie). they in the gliders that you see, tho they were tethered to the ship. they get attacked, the brother gets killed and the meg gets tangled in the wreckage of his sub as it gets pulled up the surface. just before hitting that layer is when the much larger meg comes in and starts eating the tangled one. the warm blood from the smaller meg protecting it from the colder water above the layer. thats how it gets free. the other change, which i wish they kept in this movie (tho its mentioned in the sequel), the reason the shark had been so ravenous was that it was a she, and she was pregnant. she gives birth just before the final confrontation, and the book ends with a scene of them capturing the baby (Angel) to take back to their oceanographic institute. Angel (named Haiqi in the sequel film) ends up being one of my favorite things in the series. I get why they cut the scene, because they weren't sure they were going to get to make a sequel, but it still would have been nice to see it in this film.

Loved this reaction! Now you guys have to watch The Meg 2!

Watch "Phenomenon" 1996 starring John Travolta and "What Dreams May Come" 1998 starring the late, great Robin Williams. One right after the other but watch them in that order for the greatest emotional impact.

Love Love Love this Movie❤❤❤ Can't wait to watch the 2nd one

I absolutely love your reaction vids ,you guys need to react to the 2 one it’s way more intense and more interesting 🙏🏻🫶🏻

I absolutely looove her reactions 🤣🤣🤣 My exact reactions when I watched this for the first time (yes I have seen it many times) And I love sharks 🤣🤣

if God intended us to go high in the air or deep in the watern he would have given us wings or fins, the perfectionist that he is

I live 20 minutes from Galveston and grew up here so I’ve spend SO MUCH time at the beach. The rip currents and bacteria are what scared me most. 😂

Steven that's totally a water version of a Naboo starfighter at 11:28

You are my goto guys for movie reactions .... just so good.

There's a sequel called "Meg 2: The Trench" that released last month.

Yes please to "Sharknado" ( 2013 ), "Sharknado 2: The Second One" ( 2014 ), "Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!" ( 2015 ), "Sharknado: The 4th Awakens" ( 2016 ), "Sharknado 5: Global Swarming" ( 2017 ), and "The Last Sharknado: It's About Time" ( 2018 ) reactions. And it's other spinoff films ( about fire spitting tarantulas ), "Lavalantula" ( 2015 ), "2 Lava 2 Lantula" ( 2016 ), and "Armageddon 2025" ( 2022 ) too.

I would so love to sit around and watch movies with you two! LOL

This was actually the last movie I saw in the theater before Covid hit, and it was amazing. I jumped out of my seat so often my dad just kept laughing at me. Because some of those startling scenes when that shark is in your face in the theater it’s intense and who doesn’t love Jason Statham lol.

So many huge underwater explosions. At that kind of depth you would get a small explosion and a big crunch.

We adored the Mermaid series. It’s something else. I just loved the passion those people have, even though it’s kind of strange, but who’s to judge. To each his own. I don’t have that much passion about my job for sure. I did think this movie was a lot of fun. I expected it to be totally obnoxious but it surprised me. I’m kind of excited to see the next one. 😮

The little remote controlled ball the girl was playing with is made by Sphero. They're pretty awesome. I have the BB-8 they made.

*I think I like "DEEP BLUE SEA" [ 1999 ] a lot more, but all over "THE MEG" is still okay. It is more on the funny side.* 📽📀

7:58 Nikki is 100% correct here. Imagine how you would react if you were chilling in your house and a shark walked into your living room. I'm totally Team Meg in these movies.

Six years before this, a film called "Safe" came out. It had Jason Statham protecting a young Chinese girl being hunted by Chinese Triad, Russian Mafia, and corrupt cops. Great action film.

Nikki's reactions are awesome 😂😂😂

Fishing for shark fins has been going on for decades . They kill them just for the fins. It is a huge business, mostly in the Oriental. The shops there are full of thousands of fins.

You have a cat called Finan! That is the best thing ever! I love that 💗 I am such a fan of The Last Kingdom and Finan was always one of my favourites

😂 love the reference to ‘Pipin’ the dog, from the dog in the first jaws movie 😂🦈

Pippin..............aaaahhhhh got me rolling on the floor 😂😂😂

Love this movie, miss just action packed Giant monster movies (that's not Godzilla related)

I'm 100% on board with Nikki!!!

Anyone else catch the call backs to Jaws? Dog names were the same, little boy begging to go back into the water, and the shark dragging a dock.

Great reaction to The Meg!

20:57 "Hello,..name's Bruce." ~Finding Nemo.

All of those ppl at the beach in inner tubes look like a bowl of Meg fruity pebbles 😂

I was *just* trying to remember The Octonauts theme a couple days ago. That and Curious George were probably my favorite shows that my little one watched when they were llittle little.

I was waiting for you to say What’s up Reapers 😂😂. Then I thought, yeah they’re doing that for SOA, not every damn thing they do LOL

Nikki you’re not alone😭 octonauts taught me about the spook fish and it’s not nearly as cute as they made it🤣 also Claude the coconut crab being so sweet but also probably being the one that ate Amelia earheart is something I think about too often😭🤣

I had a good time watching your reaction to this movie lots of fun, I notice Steven's arm had a bruise mark all of the sudden my wife call me so I stop the video right at the moment we're nikki was holding steven arm with that mighty grip right on the bruise 😂😂😂😂😂😂

This may was a great recap so I can watch the sequels later today!

What a nice surprise! I just know this is going to be fun ;)

This movie made me fall in love with Jason Statham lol and I love the sequel too!! Especially the return of Pippen 😂

Such good fun and some great drama too :)

"The Abyss" (1989) written & directed by James Cameron. Watch the extended "Director's Cut" "Das Boot Extended Director's Edition" (1981) WW2, watch with subtitles, not dubbed "Grey Lady Down" (1978)

It's kind of funny you mentioned dolphins, they can actually be more aggressive than sharks and have been known to kill some and also try to um..."force themselves" on humans. Smaller sharks are much safer to swim with lol

i have a big a** gash on my inside of my leg , i was 8 years of age climbing onto our kitchen roof in 70s , climbing the cast iron pipe was not a problem but walking over the kitchen roof to get to other pipe to go on the second roof i fell in , we used slate at the time and it cut inside of my leg , climbed back down to the living room got needle and cotton and wax to make cotton stronger about to sow up my leg while blood was squirting out , my mother came from shopping saw what i was doing then fainted , i got some salt for the wound then made sure my mother was okay. good vid by the way.

I love when Nikki answer their dumb questiones😂
