Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Best for sci-fi fans and people who still love a bit of magic. Popcorn viewing in the best sense. Sits nicely alongside Mad Max: Fury Road or Resident Evil.
- The mood
- Exciting.
- The pace
- Fast-moving, at 1 hr 27 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG-13: scary moments. Probably too much for younger kids.
- Not for anyone who finds explosions tiring.
When an accident leaves a group of researchers trapped beneath the earth's crust, it's up to a drill team, led by Joseph Harnet, to rescue them. But once underground, the team discovers a mysterious -- and horrifying -- subterranean universe.
