POSITIVES…
The location of being in the caves of an abandoned city is a setting you don’t normally see in a shark movie. Got to give it credit for that.
I have to admire the fact that the movie was able to keep its momentum of continually increasing the danger level that the characters keep facing as the plot moves along.
Jump scares are effective enough.
Actresses do a fine job of acting scared or tough, as needed. The movie sells that part well.
The use of slow-mo in certain scenes were visually great to see.
That last 10 minutes was so gonzo unbelievably crazy! Most entertaining part of the movie.
There is also a silent exchange between two characters during the final minutes that was absolutely worth it, that I wanted to just clap in approval.
NEGATIVES…
It’s not exactly the freshest plot of a movie.
The movie takes its sweet time before it actually got me entertained. I was getting impatient during half of it.
There was a lot of fluff back-story that I frankly didn’t care about, or needed in this movie. Although one of those back-stories do pay off well at the end (see positives…).
As it goes, the characters do not always use the best judgement. That might annoy you.
Heck, the characters themselves might just annoy you.
People might find factual inaccuracies with the movie, so do suspend your disbelief as much as you can.
Some people might actually be disappointed at the fact that this has nothing to do with the previous “47 Meters Down” movie.
P.S….
As far as modern shark movies goes, I still recommend checking out “The Shallows.”
