Deep Rising (2023)
10/10
Stunning and sobering
14 November 2023
We all know the seas are in peril from the affects of climate change and overfishing, but when we think of the seas, we never really imagine the the deep seas where we think there's nothing. Well, as it turns out, there's actually a lot going on down there and a lot of interest in disturbing it for political and financial gain.

Deep Rising probes the motives and and the consequences of what opening up a new massive mining operation might mean for us and the world and it's certainly concerning.

But the film is also balanced very carefully with the beauty of the life down there and we're led through the journey by the voice of Jason Momoa, who at first seemed like an odd or maybe populist choice, but strangely feels just right - deep and emotive.

All in all it feels like an important journey into the deep seas that we all need to take!
