47 Metri - Uncaged

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.

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.

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.

It's exactly what it's suppose to be. It's corny in a lot of ways, with some subpar special effects but it's thrilling and it's undoubtedly entertaining. This movie is a simple story and it was executed in a thrilling way- the acting is good for WHAT the movie is. The special effects are good for WHAT the movie is. This was never meant to be a movie with a 20 million dollar budget, it was meant to be a sequel to the first equally corny, and equally simple storyline that was 47 Meters Down (the original). The acting was well done in portraying true terror in the moments it was needed. The only shortcoming I truly saw was the writing. I found there were too many moments that were suppose to have you on the edge of your seat- it became incredibly predictable after about 20 minutes of the in-water survival scenes. What I would've liked to see here is more story, and more build-up. More tension rather than climax climax climax from the writers. Again, I think it was good for what it is. It's a thrilling, and frankly corny ocean thriller. Though entertaining, I feel that there was some untapped potential in the actors, the choice of special effects and story. I probably would not watch the next movie if there was another one- but I don't regret watching this one as it was undoubtedly fun to watch despite its short-comings.
