47 Meters Down
This is not a sneak preview. This film has already released.
Two sisters, Kate (Claire Holt) & Lisa (Mandy Moore), looking for some adventure thrills while on vacation in Mexico, decide to go shark cage diving 5 meters submerged in a steel cage. Of course, one disaster after another sends the girls to the bottom of the sea & they must to get rescued as sharks lurk about & their oxygen supply runs out. It's gripping suspense as the situation becomes more complicated than you would expect. It's "The Shallows" but underwater with twice the potential victims, one fourth of the distance to swim, & in one twenty-fourth of the time. Holt & Moore do a great job acting under the added complications of performance while wearing breathing masks. It's a shark movie so you can expect the usual jump scares as those chomping teeth spring suddenly upon you. You also get a simplified crash course on SCUBA 101.
Alien gives it 3 "chum the waters & shark bait" stars out of 4.
