    very interesting movie

    I saw it on amazon at night, and I totally immersed myself in the story. The title is beautiful, the earth breathes, the volcano, the daughter's illness, the meaning of the title is beautiful. James Cosmo is a great actor...

    Simply awful!

    Don't even waste your time with this so called movie. It is totally boring and you spend most of your time watching the main character cry in a hole. The hole looks fake and you spend most of your time watching her play out the and scenarios over and over like a snake coming to get her combined with some really tedious flashback scenes that are mostly around her child and some guy that has the hots for her. You can't feel sorry for a character like this who decides to hike a treacherous environment by herself. I will never get my time back from watching this POS movie but at least I know I'll never have to see it again. Considered yourself warned!

    Breath a sigh of relief when it is over

    I do not usually pay attention to the 1 and 2 star reviews on IMDB as they are usually from people who rate a movie either a 1 or a 10 if they like or dislike but in this case they are spot on.

    You can usually tell how bad a movie is going to be from the first 5-15 mins and within that time we have shaky camerawork that looks like it has been filmed on a Go-pro or I-phone; perhaps it was and the editing is atrocious as if it was being made by a film student, then again perhaps it was?

    Then we have the directors obsession with long quadcopter shots of lava rocks for no apparent reason other than to play with his new DJI.

    Add to this an utterly banal and unbelievable story with some shockingly bad scenes such as the girl swimming up through the cave when it is obvious it is filmed in front of a fish tank, it just looks so bad, cheap and nasty. Nothing happens in the movie and the dialogue is so atrocious I started to want to fast forward, which is something I rarely ever do.

    The only reason I am giving this a 2 is for the music which was ok and James Cosmo who was obviously dropped into this snore-fest for movie poster cred but if you want to watch something more interesting I would suggest popping down to B&Q and spending your Netflix on a tin of Dulux and doing some DIY and watch it dry!

    Waste of Time

    Horrible quality! The acting is horrible, the video editing is so cheap, specially the snake and the water part. I cant believe we watched it till the end.

    A non-realistic story and production!

    Yes, the first thing to do is to enable the gps in her phone and the throw her cell phone out of the hole. It can be tracked easily!

    Second, when they found her truck, no one looked around near that area?? Stupid!! She can't be that far away from her truck and can easily do a search while calling her name with loudspeakers.

    I can't believe I watched it till the end!!!

    • Trivia
      No vulcanologist, or geologist, or researcher would go into such an environment so poorly outfitted, or even alone, it's the first rule. She wasn't even prepared well enough for a long walk in the park, much less exploring a volcano.
