The Abyss (2023)
3/10
Full of holes, plotholes that is
17 February 2024
We have seen all of this before over the years but with better actors and better scripts (and better effects to be honest) Classic movies like Twister, Dante's peak, Volcano and Day after tomorrow.

But even new movies like Greenland, Deepawater horizon, San andreas fault and 2012 are way better and enjoyable than this.

As usual SVT is relentlessly using their form A making sure the women are strong, the men weak, the daughter dating a girl and the protagonist replacing the husband with a man from the middle east.

While each of those on their own could have worked they instead decide to go all in and the story suffers from it.

Tuva Novotny is trying hard but the rest of the cast is lacking and some are extremely poor.

It could be that the bad script are making them look worse than they are though.

I found the fact that they are moving an entire city fascinating and would actually prefer watching a movie/documentary about that instead.

Its sad but id rather rewatch the older movies i mentioned above than endure movies like this.
