Quick Hit

The Descent unfolds like a creature-feature banger—claustrophobic, brutal, and never wastes a scare.

Full Take

The Descent leans hard into creature feature energy, and Neil Marshall keeps the tone claustrophobic without letting the movie drift. It knows its lane and drives straight into the dark with style, control, and just enough mean streak. Certified genre fuel.
