ihate 4 @ihate47metersdown Jul 27 i hated this movie so much i created an account just to write a bad review on it. the main character "lisa" was so obnoxious i was grinding my teeth as i watched just waiting for the shark to kill her. every slight inconvenience that came her way would have her drop what she was doing and start screaming and wasting oxygen, then she'd spend 20 seconds just staring at how many bars of oxygen she had left and freaking out. she was trying to dislodge her leg by moving rocks? she'd stop and scream. she was pulling a rope? she'd stop and scream. in fact, when they first fell 47 meters down, she started banging on the cage and screaming for help as if that would do them ANY good. the other sister, kate, was doing everything and just acting as a therapist while her sister just freaked out. when they started finally getting lifted, kate was clearly about to drown as lisa just screamed "we're going up! up! omg we're going up! i see us going up! up!" and i was disappointed she didn't die.

The characters were unbelievably stupid. Lisa was so whiny that I was surprised she didn't end up suffocating by the amount of useless screaming and pointless hyperventilating she did. "oh no I have almost 0 air left, should I either spend my time getting the tank a few feet away, or should I scream and whine for 30 seconds because of a small cut". By the end of the movie I was hoping that she got torn apart by sharks because of how annoying and infuriating this character was. Anybody who says that there was good acting has the media literacy of a 5 year old. This movie has left me angry at how bad it was, in all my life I have never seen a movie as terrible as this one. The ending was even more horrible, "oh you got saved but are injured, sike you are actually underwater hallucinating, sike you actually got saved ". Make up your mind.

It felt like this whole movie was one girl trying to be a therapist for the other girl. The last 30 minutes didn't even happen and turned out to be a hallucination. What tops it off as a bad ending is the girl who had no experience and was more likely to die, survived in the end. The cgi on the sharks was absolutely horrendous, apparently there's a sequel. See more Oz S @Ozsoffy Mar 28 This is a simple but effective survival thriller that really puts you in the characters’ situation. The underwater setting creates a strong sense of claustrophobia, and it often feels like you’re trapped with them, which keeps the tension going. While the concept is engaging, the story is predictable and doesn’t offer much beyond the core premise. Still, the atmosphere and pacing make it watchable even if it never fully rises above average. A decent experience overall, but not particularly memorable. See more Gononan B. @biggononanotthelilone Mar 6 47 Meters Down is a tense and exciting survival thriller that keeps you on edge almost the entire time. The story of two sisters trapped in a shark cage deep underwater is simple but very effective. The movie builds suspense really well, making every moment feel dangerous and stressful as they try to survive with limited oxygen. The underwater setting adds to the fear, and the sharks create constant tension. The performances are solid, and the film does a great job making the audience feel the pressure and isolation of being stuck in the ocean. See more Chad H. @ASOIrishWoody Dec 8 47 Meters Down is the story of two sisters who say, “Let’s go on a relaxing beach vacation!” and immediately follow it with, “Let’s get into a rusty shark cage run by the sketchiest company since Fyre Festival.” Because nothing says “therapy appointment incoming” like trusting your life to a boat Captain who looks like he Googled “how to shark cage” that morning. The film stars Mandy Moore as Lisa, a woman who is both afraid of sharks and desperate to impress her ex—so naturally, she decides the best way to do that is to dangle herself in the middle of a shark buffet. Her sister Kate, the chaos goblin of the movie, is the one who says, “C’mon, it’ll be fun!” which is always the phrase spoken right before things explode, sink, or get eaten. Once they’re dropped into the water, the cage snaps faster than a cheap selfie stick, and they plummet 47 meters down—hence the title, in case you were hoping it was a romantic comedy. Down there, it’s dark. It’s scary. The oxygen is running low. And the sharks are basically underwater linebackers with anger issues. The entire movie becomes the most stressful game of “don’t die” ever filmed. Here are the film’s main lessons: Never trust a vacation idea that starts with “It’ll be safe!” Sharks are always hungry. Even when you’re not on the menu, they’ll consider an exception. If your oxygen tank says ‘low,’ that’s not a suggestion. Sisters will get you into terrible situations AND try to get you out… usually. The movie does an excellent job of creating tension. Every shadow looks like a shark. Every sound feels like a shark. And the twist ending? Oh, the twist. It’s the cinematic equivalent of someone pulling the rug out from under you while yelling, “SURPRISE!” See more Read all reviews
