Action adventure movie Sanctum arrives on DVD.
Without the spectacle of 3D, is there much left to enjoy?
Heres a review…
Sanctumhas but one pertinent message to impart: dont trust nature.
Unfortunately, the hapless protagonists ofSanctumhave no such luxury.
Or its an Antipodean, adult version ofThe Goonies.
As one character growls, Theres no God down here!
Neither is there a scriptwriter in the cave, if the woeful dialogues anything to go by.
Frank barks things like, Youre on my shit list.
There are the usual character arcs here, a father and son rebuilding their rocky relationship.
Other characters are overcome by anxiety.
Some friends become enemies, enemies become friends, and so on.
Extras
Sanctumis, unusually, entirely upstaged by its extras.
In fairness, Ive only ever been inside a real cave twice.
Its a tense story, and proof that fact really can be more compelling than fiction.
