Movie review: Cave

 
 Three ex-soldiers gather to explore a dangerous cave, but the real danger may be old romances finding new life. Before long all three are struggling emotionally, and physically, to find a way out of the cave.

Heidi Toini (Charlie), Mads Pettersen (Adrian), Benjamin Helstad (Viktor), Ingar Gimle (Erlend).

This one started off horribly and just got worse. The first thing we realized was that the film is dubbed in English. Then we realized how poorly the dubbing was done, with mismatched emotion and bad timing. Shortly after that we began to wonder if any of these people had actually ever been in a cave. It did not appear they had. Next up; Why in the world would you invite your obviously sociopathic ex-boyfriend to join you and your new boyfriend on a dangerous cave expedition?

Acting was poor, though some of that might have been due to poor dubbing.

Camera work and the cave itself were done pretty well. Did we mention the dubbing was awful? Dialogue was dry. Sound was okay.

This one has more problems than it does entertainment value. Take a pass, or turn the lights off and pretend you are in the cave with them. It couldn't hurt.

Some violence, sexuality, partial nudity, so save this one for the older kids you really hate.
