47 Meters Down: Uncaged

If like me, you were lured in by the trailer, which to be fair for those of us that like shark movies, even though they're nearly all terrible, you can be forgiven for thinking this one would be different....

.....It wasn't unfortunately.

On the plus side, as is so often the case it is a nice idea, I love the idea of those cave sharks, blind, relying on sound, great, only they looked a little like Jaws III at times, and were a little on the dim side. The characters were such, that you didn't care if they got eaten or not, and apart from the quite brilliant scene used in the trailer (you can see why) it didn't really deliver many scares.

I won't say it was atrocious, because it wasn't, it is more what I'd class as a fun movie.

How long before a dive into the waters of The Arctic, and divers get terrified by Greenland sharks? One day.

Mehh, 4/10.

I truly had no interest in seeing this film, with little marketing and a first film that by no means was deserving a sequel. However, with a fresh new cast and not much else out in theaters this past weekend, I thought I might as well give it a shot. Following in the footsteps of many other blockbuster style films this summer, 47 Meters Down: Uncaged is a harmlessly thrilling sequel that cares much more about its scares than it does in developing characters, but that's not really what you go to these movies looking for. Paced out well with tension that never seems to end, I couldn't help but be entertained by this sequel. Heck, I'll take another few of these. Shark movies always seem to have a great deal of appeal.

6.5/10

Rating 4.0/10 The first time i've seen the trailer i thought the movie would be amazing and full of thrilling scenes, unfortunetly i was wrong. The acting in it are mediocre and falls short of satisfaction. Not only that, the storyline not as good as i hoped. Truly bad shark movie.

I don't know what i expected in all honesty. it was shot well and the tension gives you that feeling of being constantly pursued but at some point it does get comical. particularly the last sequence. all in all it's a great laugh.

Those who have high expectations are wrong here. But if you know what you will be getting involved with for the next 1,5 hours, then this movie is not bad at all, also the ending.
