Sanctum

The makers of this movie lied. They pronounced rather blatantly that James Cameron (Avatar) was involved in the production. He wasn’t. In fact, the only connection is that the makers of Sanctum filmed with the same equipment that Cameron used on Avatar.

Five minutes into this film and you can tell the master filmmaker had absolutely nothing to do with it. While the setting – a series of unexplored underwater caves – is rather enchanting, if somewhat terrifying, the acting is frankly horrendous. The Aussies are all unknowns and act accordingly. The script, too, is totally predictable and laden with cheese.

Perhaps divers will appreciate the harrowing escapades; personally I prefer more wine with my cheese.

Rating: 2/5
