47 Meters Down: Uncaged (2019)
2019 | Adventure, Drama, Horror
In the first "47 Meters Down," two friends went cage-diving in shark-infested waters and became trapped on the bottom after the line is tragically severed. The sequel takes place in Mexico with four teenagers who are not exactly friends at the beginning cave-diving in an ancient Mayan city that became submerged. One of the girls secretly rendevouses with an underwater explorer who showed her a secret dock where diving gear was being hidden for archaelogists. She then takes her friends to the secret spot one Saturday when two of the girls who are stepsisters are supposed to take a glass-bottom boat to shark-infested waters. The girls then explore the Mayan cave where they find a shark who has become trapped in the caves. The rest of the movie is the friends attempting to escape these blood-thirsty monsters and bonding. Unfortunately, after Florida alligators and a series of killer shark movies, 47 Meters Down Uncaged does not satisfy in any way (both story or camp-wise). The filmmakers and studio knew this or they would not released the film in the middle of August against four other wide releases.

Roy Schider, Richard Dryfus and Robert Shaw give an amazing performance in this suspenseful ocean tale.


One great piece of movie history from this movie is that the line "You're gonna need a bigger boat" was improvised and done on the first take. It is part of AFI's 100 greatest quotes.

Possibly the closest the shark attack genre has ever come to toppling Jaws, The Shallows is tense, nicely filmed and features a great performance from Blake Lively.

We all know that there's only ever going to be one winner in a fight between Jason Statham and a giant prehistoric shark, but I have to say that this was better than I was expecting!

Great to see in 4dx
Was fairly skeptical of this movie thout it might just be another sharknado but it was actually pretty good.

Totally worth watching in 4dx if you can or 3d at the very least as it makes the tension scenes soo much better.

Without spoiling it for everyone I quite liked the twist of the origins of the shark and the fact that it makes you think about all the things that we still don't know about our planet.
