The characters and story are so inneffective, and the pacing so irritatingly drawn out and tedious, that it quite literally would have been less dull if they were to have actually filmed real miners working for two hours in the same visual style. Ultimately this film is just an excuse to have nice looking images. That is fine, the visuals are nice, but I don't feel as if I gained anything from the film in that regard that could not have been acquired from watching the trailer.
