The Abyss

This movie had potentially been really good if it wasn't a lot of family drama in it.

The bad language between young teenagers in the movie gives a bad message to viewers to.

It had some thrilling moments but nothing more.

This was a bad attempt to replicate other disaster movies.

I am sorry to say but I can't recommend this film at all.

There are better ways to spend money on theatre this days.

It pains me to see good actors in a bad picture.

I love Tuva and she has great potential if she only get the chance.

To summarize this movie I have to say that it lacked depth and it was quite messy.

This is one of those movies that makes people, both the characters of the movie and the viewers, look dumb as if we don't know how things work in real life. Or, maybe the people who made this movie don't know how things work in real life, simple things like how concrete breaks. The events are very badly written. There are so many parts of the movie where the things that are happening and how the characters were behaving are not realistic. Worse than other movies where people are running in random like walking towards hazard almost purposefully. Instead of feeling the 'thrill' it was mostly funny because of how silly it was. The actors are good but the directing is terrible. The outcome of the story is almost predictable.

Awful movie in all categories. Extremely bad acting, not compelling story, mediocre effects, dialogues are incredible mediocre. Film students could have done a greater job. Please learn with the Americans, koreans, and even the chinese.

First part of the film was very weak, character development was not there, the movie seemed to be a collage of scenes without any sequence. The 2 disaster scenes, mine and house were very basic and basically to be considered as the main parr of the film they were very unintersting. The movie was calling for a fast foward button all the time. Very excruciating to watch. I will give it a 4 to be fair.

I really was excited to hear about this movie, both as it's the first ever Swedish catastrophe movie, but also that it takes place in the unique town of beautiful Kiruna.

The film is based on an actual possible event. The town of Kiruna is in the process of being moved three kilometers away from where it's situated today due to that the substantial mining underneath is leading to the town's sinking. And moving a town with 23.000 inhabitants is a huge task.

I also had great hopes as I heard talented Tuva Novotny was the lead actress, as an actor always doing well.

The plot is that Novotny's character is in charge of safety in the mines, when the ground it starting to falter around them.

But disappointment was huge both to see silly instructing, bad acting (if not from Novotny) and cliché after cliché, and rather stupid action.

I'm afraid to say that the story is not at all exciting, and even worse, it's boring.

I take it that the Swedes are inspired by the many great catastrope movies coming out of Norway since 2011 (The Wave, The Quake, The Tunnel, The Burning Sea, Troll, People in the sun, Pioneer, etc) but this is not reaching up to any of them.

It worked for an entertaining evening despite the low rating on this website. The undergrounds of Sweden's town Kiruna are mysterious. If you like disaster movies of this genre you can expect a worth seeing low budget action thriller. The executed dramatic scenes are not coming cheesy here an looked really great. There are some flaws but if you can ignore it is okay.

It was never boring and quite fast paced with the dramatical countdown. The actors delivered all good performances. Don't hesitate.to watch the other disaster Hollywood blockbuster San Andrea.or the.series Chernobyl.

I give a vote of 6/10.
