From the "Fast and Furious" series to the "Expendables" series, from "Furious Attack" to "Death Express", Jason Statham, who has hit the world this time, challenged the prehistoric behemoth in "Megadon". Tooth shark.
The monster movie with sharks as the protagonist can be traced back to "Jaws" in the 70s. Of course, the great white shark is nothing compared to the megalodon.
Megalodon is an extinct prehistoric giant shark species that lived between 23 million and 2.6 million years ago. It is estimated that the largest size of megalodon is 20.3 meters long. Judging from this body shape, the weight of the megalodon is estimated to reach 103 tons. Moreover, the teeth of megalodons are very powerful, the bite force is the highest in ancient and modern animals, up to 19 metric tons, which can easily bite through the bones of whales.
Here is a comparison of the sizes of great white sharks and megalodons. The green part is the average size of the great white shark, and the red one is the size of the megalodon under conservative estimation. If it is not conservatively estimated, the size of the megalodon may be as large as the gray.
If you are a fan of Hollywood blockbusters or monster movies, then the huge sharks, cool visual effects and exciting scenes of human-shark battles in Megalodon will surely satisfy you.
In the film, Jason Statham plays the former U.S. Marine Corps deep-sea diving expert Jonas Taylor. He once found the prehistoric creature "megalodon" during a deep-sea operation, but no one wanted to believe him. , And called him a lunatic until the reappearance of megalodons-in an international scientific research project led by China, researchers were once again attacked by megalodons and trapped in the depths of the Mariana Trench. seabed.
In the process of rescuing scientific researchers, the megalodon accidentally swam from the deep sea to the shallow sea, and a thrilling human-shark war began.
In addition to the huge size and amazing bite force, the megalodon in the movie also has a strong attack power. In front of it, the plane exploded, the ship capsized, and the deep-sea scientific research station almost completely collapsed.
Facing the attack of prehistoric behemoths, Jason Statham and Li Bingbing joined forces to fight back, staged one after another thrilling battles between humans and sharks. For example, when they were preparing to sniper megalodon for the first time, Jason Statham was dragged by a rope to quickly slide on the water, and behind it was the prehistoric behemoth that was still chasing after him with a mouthful of blood. Although this scene was full of dangers, Jason still personally performed the stunt of a high-speed shuttle between water and underwater. For this scene, Jason said bluntly: "Although it is dangerous, it is full of fun. I enjoy it very much."
When the megalodon came to Sanya Bay to start killing, it brought another kind of fear-you know there is danger, but you don't know when this danger will happen, which is very challenging to people's psychology and physiology. limit. The prehistoric monsters slowly moved under the water, looking for suitable prey, while a group of unsuspecting people on the sea laughed and played.
Of course, in addition to the scenes of the shark wars that make adrenaline soaring, the "underwater world" in the movie is also amazing. The mother and child whales outside the deep-sea scientific research station, countless schools of sharks, all kinds of strange and mysterious creatures, as well as all kinds of subtle underwater ripples and water vapor, "Megadon" presents a realistic "undersea Jurassic" ", once again aroused deep sea fear.
The prehistoric giant shark attack, the thrilling human-shark battle, and the production of realistic special effects, as the monster blockbuster of this summer season, "Megatooth" is undoubtedly satisfactory.
And watching such a cool movie about the ocean and ocean monsters on the hot summer day is really cool!
