DVD Reviews of The Descent (Original Unrated Cut) [Blu-ray]

DVD Review: Terrorific Extreme Adventuring
Summary: 5 Stars

When watching this movie, I feel like I'm in that labyrinthine cave so far underground--just as I find myself on the mountain and in the crevasse when viewing Touching the Void. I found the troglodytes very believable as well. The character development was quite adequate. The acting was fine. I found nothing that detracted from the experience except the very last 10 seconds (which I won't give away). I find this movie to be an engrossing terrorific adventure.

DVD Review: FAIR
Summary: 2 Stars

THE MOVIE FOR ME STARTED WHEN THEY GOT LOST IN THE CAVE. I KNOW THEY WERE TRYING TO GET YOU TO KNOW THE CHARCTERS IN THE BEGINNING. THE DIALOGUE COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER. I DID KNOW ONE OF THE WOMEN WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH ONE OF HER FRIENDS HUSBAND. I DON'T THINK THE CHARCTERS WERE STRONG ENOUGH. MAYBE THEY NEEDED STRONGER ACTRESSES LIKE SIGOURNY WEAVER, LINDA HAMILTON EVEN ANGELA BASSET. BUT THE MOVIE HAD IT'S MOMENTS. IT'S GOOD TO WATCH, AND IT'S GOOD TO PUT ON WHEN YOU HAVE MOVIE NIGHT WITH FRIENDS. :-)

DVD Review: Good, not Great.
Summary: 3 Stars

I assumed this was based on the book of the same name. The book was MUCH better. But the movie was good enough once I got past expecting to see something that approximated the book. It's worth a rental. I wouldn't buy it.

DVD Review: Descent Review
Summary: 1 Stars

I ordered the DVD and it would not play the last two chapters, so I received another DVD and it still would not play the last two chapters. I only got part of my money back for something that was not my fault. I am not very happy with how the purchase turned out. I have not heard why both of the DVD's would not play the last two chapters also.

DVD Review: Surprisingly good
Summary: 5 Stars

Like others, I did not expect to like this film, but when I caught it on cable T.V., I was surprised at how good it was, including the acting and production values, even the music. I saw the film with the original ending, but later read about the ending used for the American release, and was quite glad I saw the original. "Dog Soldiers" is good, but this is excellent.

Description of The Descent (Original Unrated Cut) [Blu-ray]

On an annual extreme outdoor adventure six women meet in a remote part of the Appalachians to explore a cave hidden deep in the woods. Far below the surface of the earth disaster strikes when a rock fall blocks their exit and there's no way out. The women push on praying for another exit but there is something else lurking under the earth. The friends are now prey forced to unleash their most primal instincts in an all-out war against an unspeakable horror - one that attacks without warning again and again and again.System Requirements:Running Time: 99 Mins.Format: BLU-RAY DISC Genre:?HORROR Rating:?UNRATED UPC:?031398205937 Manufacturer No:?20593
Claustrophobia and bloody mayhem collide in the high-adrenaline horror flick The Descent. Six women (including one who lost her husband and child the year before, and one who harbors a bitter secret) spelunk in an unexplored cavern system that turns out to harbor mysterious, predatory creatures. That sums up the story, but--as with writer-director Neil Marshall's previous low-concept movie, Dog Soldiers--the plot doesn't begin to describe the riveting, stomach-lurching thrills this movie provides. The script affords the relatively unknown cast (led by Shauna Macdonald and Natalie Mendoza, both excellent) just enough room to make their characters distinct and genuine, so that when they're dropped into utmost peril our empathy is engaged as much as our fear. The dynamic direction and editing make the cavern a palpable, physical presence, even before the creepy beasts crawl out of their nooks. This is not a movie for everyone; it is extremely gruesome and will induce panic attacks in anyone with even a mild fear of closed spaces. But for anyone seeking something smarter, faster, and more wrenching than static torture-fests like Saw or Hostel, The Descent will draw you into its unsettling ooze. --Bret Fetzer
