The Cave Reviews
If the creature in Alien had proliferated like the movie’s knockoffs, mankind would never have survived.

The Cave is a decently crafted but unoriginal and uninspiring creature feature with a few moments of true entertainment that the rest of the film never matches up to.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Mar 18, 2011
Replete with winged undersea cave monsters, unlikely mountain climbing heroics and a mutating microbe that turns its victims into creatures-in-waiting "The Cave" is a paint-by-numbers thriller lacking in pigment.
| Original Score: C- | Jun 21, 2009
Bland, boring, conventional, cliché, and dumb...

About what you'd expect from a low budget, B-movie destined to reside among the direct-to-video releases at Blockbuster and the Saturday night features on the Sci-Fi Channel.

O roteiro é ridículo, mas o filme consegue criar algumas seqüências tensas. Ainda assim, empalidece frente ao ótimo (e similar) The Descent.

...a dull, thoroughly unpleasant horror flick...

...despite its shortcomings, The Cave does deliver on some of its promises.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 2, 2005
The monsters show up and it becomes another run-of-the-mill creature feature, only one that's more dimly lit than usual because of the setting.

Some things, like this movie, are best left undiscovered.
| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Sep 23, 2005
I wouldn't even encourage movie-goers who adore this type of film to give it a try because you'd be much better off renting anything from the action section of your favorite video store.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Sep 18, 2005
Rare is the movie in which it's so blatant that the quest for a lower rating has influenced the aesthetic style so much.
Full Review | Sep 16, 2005
The whole thing is pretty dumb, and not tongue-in-cheek enough to make the dumbness fun.

Not a classic by any means, but possibly one you might want to add to your Netflix queue for a rainy day.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 6, 2005
Even among the dogs of summer, The Cave scrapes bottom.

Look up pointless in the dictionary and you'll find a movie poster for The Cave.
