I miss crocodile / alligator films, A terrible movie. What a waste of time...

Warning: Spoilers
Moral of story = guns save lives, i guess. About the end - it's stupid, it's a tired cliché, and because of that, I started to wonder if I had actually been mildly entertained at all. Turns out, the ending is like finding a meatball at the bottom of your cheap mint ice-cream sundae: not absolutely the worst thing you possibly could've found at the end, but enough to spoil what little pleasure you took from the first 90%, and leaves you wondering if it was enjoyable in the first place, and if it was all actually worth it. That is the worst metaphor my idiot mind's ever told my fingers to write. Very disappointed with this movie. It looks like Hollywood makes all movies with the same ending again and again. No fantasy. At very beginning of this move, just by looking who is going for adventure, was easy to tell: 3 guys as always gonna die, and 2 girls gonna survive. Its 100% guaranteed, all Hollywood movies have the same ending. Did anybody see any movie where at the end girls die and guys survive? I never seen that in any movie, ever Boring and predictable. It's about a group of people trapped in an enclosed space with a deadly predator? I can't believe there's a sequel. The original is far from great but it has a very special place in my heart. I think the problem with predator movies is that immersion and tension is immediately lost when the story strains credulity and suspension of disbelief to get the victims to the predator. People act like idiots for no reason other than to be put next to the shark/crocodile/bear/lepus/w/e. One of the reasons Jaws works is because everyone has motivation to go to the water (forgetting the sequels). Most predator movies lost that somewhere. Also, wasn't the 47 meters down sequel about surviving a shark in a cave ?
