What kind of watch this is
The catacombs under Paris are not a place you visit. They are a place that visits you. John Erick Dowdle’s 2014 horror thriller traps a team of explorers in the city of the dead, where the only way out is down. The film runs 93 minutes, a duration that feels shorter when the walls are closing in. The air gets thin, and so does the hope. If you have ever felt like the ground was watching you, this is the movie that knows exactly what you mean.
What the critics said
The reception was not kind. Rotten Tomatoes reports a 26% approval rating, with an average score of 4.7 out of 10. Metacritic lands on 39 out of 100, a range that suggests general disappointment. The critical consensus notes the film plummets into clichéd mediocrity after an intriguing setup. Peter Debruge of Variety called the ending "unspeakably corny." Kyle Anderson in Entertainment Weekly admitted the stakes felt real before the caverns turned sentient and silly. Audiences were less forgiving, giving it a C−.
How it did with audiences
It cost $10 million to make and pulled in $41.8 million worldwide. That is a solid return, the kind that keeps the lights on without starting a fire. It opened with $8.3 million, landing in third place for its debut weekend. North America contributed $21.3 million to the total, while the rest of the world added $20.6 million. On TMDB, users rate it 6.8 out of 10.
