Open Water 3: Cage Dive

Acting is awful. Characters are weak with no substance and overall, completely unbelievable. No one behaves appropriately for the situation they're in. Before they're even stranded, they are all so annoying, and as I said, weak/nothing to hold on to. Like who are these people, and does anybody care? Not I. Such a ridiculously stupid script. Special effects, if you want to call them that, are as lame as everything else in this movie. It's extremely slow starting, and it continues on that way thus far. Honestly, I am still watching right now, and I can't wait for them to get eaten! Please tell me they get eaten! It's taking everything in me to finish this thing. I'm not so sure I'll succeed right now. I'm typically not a person who doesn't finish a movie. I think I've only done that twice in my life and I'm no spring chicken.

I've never seen any of the Sharknado movies, but I'd bet that they're better than this, special effects, acting and all. Hopefully that gives you an idea of what we're working with here.

Total snooze fest, predictable, and horrible acting. I really like the other two Open Water movies but this one disappointed. If you want to watch a good cage diving flick just get 47 Meters Down.

I don't leave a lot of reviews but I felt compelled to help others to not waste their time on this stinker. Found footage movies have been worn out over the years and this is no different than any of the other terrible films to come out in this genre. Do yourself a favour and move along as watching this car crash of a movie will probably make you dumber.

So many bad judgment calls. Just cheered on the sharks!

I enjoyed this movie more than I thought I would. After reading some of the reviews I nearly gave it a miss, but being a big fan of shark movies I decided to give it a chance. Despite the cover leading you to think the sharks are a fanciful size, the actual shark footage was believable and thankfully not overdone.

This is a standalone movie but I would put it on a par with the first Open Water movie and I liked it much more than the ridiculous Open Water 2. The acting was good and while some parts dragged on there was enough (including a few jump scares) to keep you invested in the story.

Some reviews have compared this with "The Shallows" and while this movie is different in many ways it was refreshing that the sharks weren't single-minded in their efforts to get their prey. This movie doesn't pretend to be a masterpiece but certainly has some good moments and is worth a viewing.

The very low and very high reviews are hard to take seriously and despite some of the more annoying moments I reckon it's a solid 6 out of 10.
