Movie Review: Sanctum
A classic survival story about a group of cavers who get trapped in an uncharted mammoth cavern when a tropical cyclone blows in and floods the entrance. With insufficient supplies for the number of survivors, the movie takes us through a series of episodes of self sacrifice and backstabbing as the best and worst of humanity is revealed.
The main side plot is an adversarial relationship between a son and estranged father. As the survival situation becomes more and more intense, they must come to rely on each other more and more and in doing so see a side of each other that they had been missing.
The side plot reaches its pinnacle when one sustains a critical injury and lays down his life for the other.
A good movie to see. The story is probably not worth full price of a theater, but the underground setting is best watched from a dark theater instead of a well lighted living room. Sometimes you just gotta splurge.
