It's one of a few films too where I have more or less liked every character, no one got on my nerves out of the group of women. And It was so sad when my favourite character

She's the dutch girl isn't she? The tall one, you mean?
Did you know she is Karen Mulders sister?

I was on about the English one who

The Descent is one of the better horror movies, especially in recent years.

OOO!! right! I was a little confused, i thought Beth was 'the protecting sister. My bad.

Descent is awesome. I hope you like gore, it has heaps!

Neil Marshall is the man !

for those curious about the british endings .. i found this from a simple yahoo search

Loved this movie (saw it ages ago, no idea why i didnt post here before), and living in ireland, i have the dvd with the full ending... to be honest i'm a sucker for a happy ending, but i liked this one...

shame

Spoiler:
juno died
though...

I like our cover on the dvd too, do not like the American poster at all.

I like the american ending better

Spoiler:
I much prefer her making it out alive and just have some further psychological damage .. which i would expect from such tramatic events she has been put through..

The UK Ending

Spoiler:
At first I totally didnt like it. After thinking about it for a while, it kind of fit with her previous hallucinations and her friend telling her to "find her own way out" so that did kind of flow but im sorry .. once those things started chewing on her she would have snapped out of that hallucination and be hating life

I like the UK ending because

Spoiler:
it finished the birthday cake hallucinations.
That's not the only reason but that's the main reason. That was really important and should've been left in.

Ditto.

i definantly like the UK ending a lot better then the US ending...

but i really liked the movie, it moved too slow for me at first, but then picked up, which was good. sometimes i couldnt tell what was going on in some scenes, but other from that i really liked it

I think this similar to the cave except much better, I wish they had gone into more detail with

Spoiler:
Juno's affair with Sarahs husband abit more, I see why he did it, Juno was hot it was a shame she died, I liked her character even though she had an affair with Sarahs man she wasnt gonna leave her behind and Beths death was an accident. With the american ending I was expecting one of the Crawlers to pop out from the backseat and with the UK ending, Does that mean that she dies?. I thought the gore involving her daughter was too much, she couldve died from the impact or whatever.

They changed the ending for the American release, don't know why at all, the ending for the original British release is just fine.
I got this release, and it, like the US release was horrible..
THIS MOST IS A WASTE OF TIME, AND INTERNET BANDWIDTH (lol)

maybe you should have went and seen it at the movies insted of pirating it .. would have been a better experience

Ok, I just watched that UK ending for the first time, and I must say that I don't like it as much because of the uncertainty it leaves. I liked feeling that it was all real.

saw it the other day, bored me.
not very tense, suspenseful or frightening.

the occasional bit of claustrophobia was all I came away with.

very unsatisfactory film... worse than Dog Soldiers.

i watched the the first hour and turned it off it was sooooo boring

I really liked this movie. There was a few things I would change but all in all it was good.

well duh, the first half hour sucks, cuz they have to get you to know all the characters better so when they kill em in the rest of the movie you feel for em and stuff. jeez
