THE TUNNEL

[Renacimiento]

Just finished it -- wasn't bad, but wasn't entirely good either. The biggest issue I had with it was its incredibly slow start. It literally take 30 minutes before the leads even get inside the tunnels. Everything else before that is a very slow story build up of the history/cover up of the tunnels. After that, it's not until 45/50 mins in that anything remotely interesting happens. Though, once it kicks into gear, the last 30-mins is pretty good. I'll have a more detailed review posted soon.

I agree, the main drawback is its long start, about 30 or 40 minutes and nothing happens and those interviews in the midst, which at times tend to be somewhat misplaced.

The last minutes are decent, but one can not help wondering if it was worth waiting so long to watch something.

Obviously it is a movie that drinks directly from others "found footage" films, whose product mother is The Blair Witch Project.

So, although it is decent, I only recommend it, if you enjoy this type of fake documentaries and above all you drink a couple of cups of coffee before you start.

I've had a check disc of this for ages. I've watched it just the one time and I thought it was one of the better films of the found footage fad (oh sorry, sub-genre). Maybe my opinion might change after my second viewing when I finally do a write-up.

Loved this flick.

I thought it was ok. Nothing special, but worth at least a watch.

The simple fact that they're giving it away for free, should warrant a watch. They did put some effort into it. Granted, yeah, it's not the greatest thing in the world, still, not bad for a first film.
