Universal Flicks presented their new drama/thriller motion picture branded "Sanctum" into cinemas last month. I just checked it out,and believed that it was rather good. It was an incredibly intense and emotional flick. It stars: Richard Roxburgh, Rhys Wakefield, Ioan Gruffudd, Alice Parkinson, and Dan Wyllie.
The film revolved around a gang of underwater cave divers who looked to be having an enjoyable experience when they arrived at one of the most beautiful and least accessible cave systems on Earth. Sadly, there great times wouldn't last for very long.
The group was comprised of about 7 or 8 people,but that number fairly quickly evaporated down as the flick went along. The team was led by a dude named Frank who was an exceptionally seasoned master diver. One lovely lady meets her demise when her breathing line accidentally gets slashed while diving deep with Frank. They were too deep to swim back to the surface,so it just didn't work out for her.
Shortly after that, the damaging misfortune flooded in on them,both really and figuratively because a break in the cave granted large amounts of water to come surging in. At this time, they had merely a handful of of hours to a day to leave the cave before it was totally overloaded.
Their original exit gets impeded in,so they had to uncover a new way out of the cave. As they tried to look for a different way out of the cave, they began meeting their demises. One man lost his balance off some rocks that were pretty high up. Another fella died from difficulties from a dive. Then one female drowned after dropping of some rocks. A lot of the fatalities seemed really avoidable. People just made foolish actions. Each loss of life finished with someone drowning,or being made to drown because their state was so negative that living didn't feel like the preferred option.
After a long journey to make it out of the cave,strangely enough, only one guy managed to make it out;and that person just barely made it out. What I got out of the flick,is that maybe these people shouldn't have decided to take this trip. That's pretty much it. Other than that,it just seemed almost pointless. There was numerous heated moments between a lot of the crew members as their emotions got the better of them,which supplied good quality drama scenes
I liked the flick because it was entertaining. There was never a dull moment. As far as the storyline goes,there wasn't really much else to it. The people just got involved in harmful predicaments while looking to explore this original cave,and perished. It almost more or less reminded me of those "Final Destination" movies accept all the deaths occurred in a flooded underwater cave. I gave the film a B- rating.
