The Cave

I saw this one and it was pretty forgettable.  THE DESCENT was much better - and it wasn't what I'd call great.

Are you kidding me?  The Descent has to be one of the top 5 worst movies ever made!  How can you make a movie with 5 chicks and no nudity?!?  It didn't even have a good story, and to top off the bad story it was all a dream... what a hunk of s**t!  I wish they would have left the one promising part (copper pipe to the face) out of the movie so I could say it WAS the worst ever!  I've never seen The Cave, but if it is worse than The Descent then people should seriously die for writing it.

I though "The descent" rocked. Honest. It may not have a very literate script, and some moments are plain silly (the opening rafting sequence sucks), but when it comes to action, gore and claustrophobia I still have to see a movie that can match it.

I finally watched this film last night, and I have to say it was complete rubbish.  I know I'm not supposed to over-analyze or expect too much from a film like this, but tap dancing Elizabeth in Hell, did this movie suck! 

Alright, so you have good creature effects, underutilized though they were, and a great setting.  The only problem is that the characters really didn't stand out.  These characters don't need to be complex, but for God's sake does everyone in this movie have to be a typical pretty boy?  I couldn't tell one character from the next.  Along with tame death scenes and plenty of boring down time.  Seriously folks, it's a monster movie.  Give the characters one characteristic per piece to stand them all out from one another, and then slaughter them horribly.  If you're not going to go the bloody disgusting route, then at least make the death scenes psychologically unnerving. 

Honestly, if you want a good horror flick in a cave, grab The Descent and skip this forgettable nonsense.
