I had high hopes for it, but I just didn't gel with it. I felt the acting was pretty poor and so I didn't really care much for the characters. Put that together with not really knowing who is who and where they are because of the darkness in the second half and the lack of good characterisation and I found I just didn't care much. Plus it says a lot about a film when the cave dwelling monsters are much more realistic than the actual real-life caving/climbing aspect (although that might not be the case if you have no knowledge about the subject).
Overall though it was watchable, and I'd probably be up for watching the sequel.
Then again, my opinion is likely pretty worthless as I thought The Witch was utterly dire
Has anybody watched Pulse (the Japanese version)? The premise of the film looks great and the trailer is promising, but I've seen reviews ranging from 'great' to 'I had no idea what was happening at any point in this movie'.
