The premise was not really that advertising in the first place, but I saw Descent(and I made sure not to get confused with The Descent) out of curiosity and because I had little better to do. Other than a decent soundtrack, which is the only reason why it is not among SyFy's worst(Titanic II, 2010:Moby Dick, Battle of Los Angeles, Super Tanker and Quantum Apocalypse were irredeemable), Descent is terrible in every other aspect. Choppily edited with dull lighting and very artificial-looking special effects, it is cheap to look at. It is very poorly written too, with cheesy and trite dialogue, cringe-worthy romance scenes, dramatic scenes that come across as forced, a basic story that feels not just derivative but feels all over the place in the telling of it and very unlikeable and stereotypical characters, especially the villain. The acting is very poor, Luke Perry is far too laid back in the lead and his colleagues are not much better. Overall, not recommended at all. 2/10 Bethany Cox
