James Cameron was an executive producer on this film, again I was under the assumption that he directed this. I'm sure others were also since his name is at the top of the movie poster with this last film, Avatar, mentioned. Don't be fooled. This was directed bu Alister Grierson, and he hasn't done anything you've seen.
The film is about a group if scientists that are exploring a cave system that has never been accessed in the history of mankind. While deep in the cave a tropical storm hits. At their depth they have no sign of the storm, and the radio communication to the ground level are out. With no warning water starts to fill up the cave. They are forced to continue to the other side [e.g. - we know the water in the cave feeds a river].
The problem with the film is the horrendous acting. Father [Richard Roxburgh] and son [Rhys Wakefield] were not good, and bad guy Ioan Gruffudd wasn't any better. Wakefield reminds me of the Hayden Christensen in the Star Wars films.
Don't get suckered into watching this because they put Cameron's name on it.

I completely agree with your review. I got suckered into buying this under the assumption that it was about monsters in caves. I soon learned it wasn't, but I was still intrigued about where this movie could go. Turned out to be filled with bad performances and over the top Australian stereotypes. "You'll be shaken like a dropped beer can" was one of the quotes I believe...
