When you look at the trailers and posters for the film Sanctum, the one thing you will notice highlighted is that the film is “From Executive Producer James Cameron, Creator of Titanic and Avatar.” Even in the credits on the poster, Cameron’s name is listed even before the actors or the title.
Sanctum is a movie built entirely around the use of 3D combined with the specific cinematography used to show off the cave diving that takes center stage in the film. As a result, the film is beautiful at times, bordering on stunning, and the 3D really does make it worth the price of admission. The weak plot, mediocre acting and paper-thin characterizations will likely make it a quickly forgotten movie, but the visuals almost make it worth seeing in the theaters.The story for Sanctum comes from Andrew Wright, a real-life cave diver who had his own near-death experience while leading an expedition through a series of underwater caves in Australia. Wright and the 14 others with him managed to find a way out after being trapped, and all survived. It is from this event that the “inspired by a true story” tag adorns the front of the movie. In both the real event and the movie, people are trapped in a series of underwater caves and need to find a way out, but the similarities end there.
