47 Meters Down: Uncaged | Film Review

Hey Guys x I watched the first movie, '47 Meters Down', when it first came out and I really enjoyed it, so when I heard that they were making another one I was keen to see it. Step-Sisters Mia (Sophie Nelisse) and Sasha (Corrine Foxx) and their two friends decide to defy their parents' orders and go diving into unexplored depths. But when the girls find themselves trapped in an underground cave with only a shark for company, their fun adventure becomes a fight for survival. I didn't think I'd like this movie as much as the first one, but I didn't know how much I'd dislike it.

Hence an exciting-but-dangerous scuba diving-style mission, where they're put in a cage and dropped 5 meters under water to see the aquatic life, including sharks, up close. However, an unforeseen circumstance sees their cage dropped 47 meters into the ocean. Not only do the girls have to worry about sharks, but can they make it back to the shore before they run out of oxygen? I really really really liked this film. Really really. I am a huge fan of both Mandy Moore ...
