Down

My take on this film is that it is a good B movie, or a very good C movie. Come on people, it's time to suspend disbelief. The acting wasn't bad, Ron Perlman and Michael Ironside were in it, and... Full review

Naomi Watts must've been a bit short on the rent when she agreed to sign up for this turkey. Without doubt, this was one of the most inane, farcical and annoying pieces of rubbish it has ever been my misfortune... Full review

What can be said about this film? The character development is flawless, the writing and directing on par with Citizen Kane, and performances that leave one breathless. Particularly, Michael Ironside, who follows up his performance in Starship Troopers with this... Full review

This movie is a remake, and director Dick Maas' also directed the original De Lift, a somewhat better and certainly smaller-budgeted movie. This one is somewhat curious in how it has a sort of trial run for Naomi Watts' character... Full review

Before Naomi Watts became a big star from her excellent performances in excellent films like "Huckabees", "Mulholland Drive", and "21 Grams"; she was delivering excellent performances in a lot of garbage movies like "The Shaft" aka "Down". And while her... Full review

This is a typical Dick Maas production. Cheesy to the max, limited plot, laughable dialogue and comic action sequences. Anyone who has seen anything by Maas will recognise these as his trademark and just go with the flow. I was... Full review

After being completely disappointed with The Ool, my friends and I stuck in The Shaft only to be completely delighted (ouch, bad one). The Shaft (or Down,as it was apparently called at one point) follows the exploited elevator industry as... Full review

Dutch director Dick Maas has essentially remade his own 1983 film De Lift with 2001's The Shaft (originally entitled Down), about an evil elevator system that suddenly begins killing people in a fancy-schmancy skyscraper. Artisan has shamelessly redesigned the cover... Full review

You know, people will probably bust up this movie, but it was really pretty good. It had a bit of a far fetched plot, but it was funny in places and the gore wasn't bad. The bit when the elevator... Full review

Pretty horrendous horror film about a murderous elevator(?!) in a fictional NYC skyscraper. Not only does it try to make elevators look menacing, but it also fails miserably(and laughably) at doing so. The sad part is that this is artistically on... Full review

The intermittent genius of director Zhang Chi resides in how he juxtaposes this social claustrophobia with scenes of refreshing but elegiac liberation.....aching silences dominate most conversations (characters often face outward toward the camera, rather than at each other, to overbearingly signify a lack of intimacy), and many scenes fatalistically fade to black..... ...
