"47 Meters Down" opened in theaters on June 16th, 2017 and received mixed reviews from critics who mentioned that the film offers some thrills for genre fans, but isn't quite as clever as it might have been. Although initially intended as a direct-to-video release, once the film was acquired by Entertainment Studios, they decided to release it theatrically, which was a good idea, considering that it opened in fifth place at the box-office with $11.5 million, more than double what was initially projected.
