The Descent (2/5)
Posted on 28 Jul 2009
I recently stopped watching trailers for films I intend to see–they just give away too much of the plot and money shots these days. I appreciated that the marketing for The Dark Knight didn’t reveal the Two-Face character at all, what a pleasant surprise. Anyway, a recent cross-continent flight sent me looking for a good action film to download and watch on the ol’ iPod. I browsed Rotten Tomatoes for all the +80 rated action films from the past ten years and found this obscure low budget Scottish film about a spelunking trip. This thing went shock and awe on a dime and had me tweaking right well. I paid for the whole seat but I only needed the edge–as it were. The film kinda sucked otherwise.
Got something to say?
