This movie is a dud.

Rating: 1/10 (1 September 2006)

As a moviegoer, I go to movies that I expect may be bad. In this respect, The Descent does not disappoint. The movie met all my expectations. Ridiculous story, gratuitous violence, artistically tasteless, and poorly acted. Whoever made this movie apparently decided that they will jettison all intellectual content and replace it with ... nothing. Since the movie is so utterly lacking in intellectual content, there is little that one can say about it. Indeed, this movie defies serious discussion and offers nothing that is worthy of serious consideration. But the bottom line is that the movie is not entertaining. This movie is a dud.
