Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

xahnegrey Also, swimming in the open ocean is always dangerous.. usually at least one person will watch for sharks.. they love to see what is splashing around on the surface.. also, a ladder or rope or both is always a must.. but really, all hands should never be in the water at once...so this crew was pretty stupid.. the ocean can kill you many ways... like everything else, if you ain't paying attention, life can sure make you pay.. these ninnies shouldn't have been in anything but a small neighborhood pool on floats.

todddude I love shark movies. The Shallows was great, Open Water 1, even the latest one 47 Meters Down had some fun stuff but I was really blown away but Open Water 2. I thought no way could it be as good as the first one but it is scary in a way you don't see coming and isn't just a repeat of the first movie.As sequels go, this one is for sure worth your time!

Chase_Witherspoon Watchable if at times frustrating tale of a six-pack of friends/acquaintances who find themselves stranded in the ocean unable to reach the deck of their luxury yacht after a moment of patent idiocy. Compounding the situation, one of the couples has an infant daughter still aboard the vessel, alas too young to fend for herself nor come to their rescue.The idiocy of the characters' response to their predicament is overwhelming - I appreciate a regular Joe/Jill's judgement would be impaired in such a situation, but the sheer scale and repetitiveness of this brainless behaviour is staggering. A cynical viewer might suggest the filmmakers conceived the most inept reactions you could make in the circumstances, and then made a movie showcasing that stupidity. Mistake after mistake leaves few survivors and whilst the methods are all unique, there's a conspicuously absent MO that disappointed me the most (though I won't spoil the surprise).Bares zero relation to its predecessor other than the tenuous concept of being stranded at sea, and whilst the panic and mood patterns displayed seem realistic, the situations are all clichés compounded by an ambiguous ending that disappoints. Not terrible, but falls short of expectations.

p-vanloo604 Might be cause I'm European but I dunno. U got 6 ppl in the water, once incapacitated due to early trauma. That leaves 1 person & 4 shoulders to stand on (2 per foot). Even in water it is very capable for 1 person's load to be distributed among 4 other ppl without them risking being unsurfaced. Thus those 4 ppl can easily be a ground base for 5th person to stand on, prepare and jump to reach the boat's edge....Again might be cause I'm European, but if this movie is based on true events as it claims, most Americans are dumb. (I said most, don't flame me, it's just my 2 cents)Apparently I need to submit more lines for this review to be valid, I however have nothing more to add to this movie, since it's crap. So Line 1. Line2 Line3 Line4 Line5 Line6 Line7 Line8 Line9 Line10 (hope this covers it & sorry for the spam!)
