User Reviews
If not 99, the film is worth at least 66 for the great efforts that have been evidently taken by the cast and crew to re-enact the horrifying real-life incident.
Much has been told and covered about the 2010 Chilean accident, and the film strictly follows the events using the good old formula popular among documentarians. Although the film partly feels like a documentary, emotions did take charge of me in the first and the third acts. The cast do a fine job, but I thought Banderas was a bit over the top.
Nevertheless, the narration has one too many flaws, mainly about how the miners' situation was written. The survival factor was only brushed upon, and the miners mainly indulged in dialoguery, for lack of a better word. Choice of music, and camera work both are below average.
BOTTOM LINE: All said and done, The 33 is a decent affair, and makes for a good afternoon view if you are interested in dramas about crises and the circus that is mount around it.
