Sanctum - 3 stars out of 5 stars

I guess you could call this a disaster film or a survival film,whats the difference?
Released  in 2011 and running 108 minutes it takes while to get started and then its kinda of boring and the cast is mostly unknowns.Thats why I took 2 stars off.The main reason I recommend the film is because I had never heard of"cave diving"before and talk about your extreme sports !!!!! Anyway its about a group caught in a deep cave during a storm and have to find a way out.Then its,who lives,and who dies. The story really is no more than that.Trailer URL follows the pix and a IMDB summary is below. Supposedly the film is based on real incidents.

The 3-D action-thriller Sanctum follows a team of underwater cave divers on a treacherous expedition to the largest, most beautiful and least accessible cave system on Earth. When a tropical storm forces them deep into the caverns, they must fight raging water, deadly terrain and creeping panic as they search for an unknown escape route to the sea. Master diver Frank McGuire has explored the South Pacific's Esa-ala Caves for months. But when his exit is cut off in a flash flood, Frank's team-including 17-year-old son Josh and financier Carl Hurley are forced to radically alter plans. With dwindling supplies, the crew must navigate an underwater labyrinth to make it out. Soon, they are confronted with the unavoidable question: Can they survive, or will they be trapped forever?
