I went into this movie expecting:
1) Excellent Cinematography worthy of the IMAX format, and
2)amazing caves.
These elements Ruined the film:
-sketchy, condescending, quasi-scientific "plot" (EXTREMOPHILES? give me a break!)
-worst of all, the Moody Blues songs, which were cringe-inducing
throughout. This is good music, and has been for 30 years; but
whoever did the sound for this film is obviously a proud graduate
of the "way too much is almost enough" film school.
The star of this feature should have been the caves, (maybe if you
bring ear-plugs?), but instead we get:
-a spelunking hi-tech internet kindergarden teachers assistant,and
-a daredevil microbiologist, who pays lip service to a hazy
cure-for-all-illnesses pipe dream, but from the tiny amount of real
information about what she is doing, I think she is actually doing
biological weapons research, but doesn't know it. On second
thought, that would be too interesting.
TheTitle of this movie should have been: "ExtremeSports and 'Don't Worry We Hate Geology Even More
Than You Do' Present: The WonderTwins Conquer Cartoon Cavern! Starring the Voice of Liam Neeson! ROCK with the Moody Blues!"
