If not for their "guide" somehow toting 5 sets of rubber waders in his tiny backpack they would never have made it through a flooded tunnel. They have no hardhats, no first aid kit, no proper clothing, nothing but a few dinky flashlights. Add to that the way the story skips at least one major event entirely just to throw in another ridiculous boo scare and the fact the big reveals are all visible a mile away, and the ending feels like clocking off at the end of a long shift rather than anything that'll end up haunting your dreams.Īnd our explorers are totally unprepared for their adventure. And so on, and so on, until you've rolled your eyes so much they're threatening to fall out of your head. I'm going to enjoy the stupid look on your face when I kill you - what? No, I didn't say anything. You're stupid, aren't you? God, you're stupid. Giving most of the dialogue to Stiglmeier is a double-edged sword he's far more talented than the young leads, but virtually every line he gets is the equivalent of a small child ceaselessly poking you in the back. And most tunnels, even abandoned subway stations, are used for something and are well documented.īut what is worse, the film seems to glory in the way the cast wander around shrieking in fear until something bites their heads off. Unlike Paris which has quarries beneath it, most cities do not have anything like a connected maze of tunnels. The film depends on a common misconception every big city has endless tunnels beneath and they are all connected as well as lost and forgotten. If you expect anything like a logical story, well, maybe not so good.
#Urban explorer bande annonce movie#
If all you want is a spooky movie with monsters and atmospheric settings, this is as good as any. When a mysterious vagrant pops up out of the darkness, he looks like the only hope the rest of them will be able to get help in time, but - probably not much of a surprise, this - it turns out their new friend has no interest in the party ever leaving the tunnels alive. The initial descent is all looming shadows and the eerie silhouettes of rusted ironwork from the Cold War, but the trouble starts once an accident sees one of the group badly injured and unable to get back to the surface. The four barely know each other, let alone their guide, but the lure of the old ruins proves too tempting.
The plot jumps almost straight into the action, with Lucia, Denis, Marie and Juna signing up with veteran urbexer Kris, who promises them he can sneak them through Berlin's tunnel network to an ancient SS bunker sealed since the second world war. So you think Urban Exploration is cool, you like the photographs you like the movies of the dead places that are forgotten? Well you will be just glad you picked this movie up! But with all the dumb folks in the movie this wouldn’t be a good a good pick after all.
