Deeper review – extreme cave diving documentary offers drama but lacks a little oomph

[EchoDash]

I'm not really blown away by 'Deeper' to be honest . I mean, the diving sequences are super intense and all that, but they just kinda blend together after a while... like, you get it, they're in a cave, stuff is dark and pressurized... The visuals are nice, don't get me wrong - those New Zealand wilderness shots are pretty breathtaking! But at the same time, I feel like we've seen some of this before in other documentaries. And yeah, Richard Harris's cameo is cool, but it feels a bit tacked on, you know? Like, what was his storyline again? Anyway, if you're into cave diving or something, I guess 'Deeper' will be right up your alley

OMG just watched 'Deeper' and I'm totally stoked about that hydrogen breathing gas tech it's like, totally mind blown! Can't wait to see more docs on extreme sports & exploration! The visuals were straight fire , especially those drone shots of NZ wilderness. But yeah, the diving scenes could've been a bit more exciting still, great to see Richard Harris on the big screen and the team's dedication to human exploration is super inspiring

I dunno, this doco seems pretty cool, but it's like watching paint dry after a while . I mean, I love cave diving and all, but it's not exactly the most relatable thing for me, you know? The film is just so focused on the divers' experiences that I didn't really feel like I was getting to know them as people beyond their passion for exploring underwater.

And don't even get me started on how repetitive some of those dives can be... it's like watching a video loop over and over . But hey, if you're into that sorta thing, 'Deeper' seems like an awesome film to check out! The visuals are def stunning, especially with all the drone shots of New Zealand wilderness . Just maybe not my cup of tea

idk about this new docu series "Deeper" ... it seems like just another adventure flick to me . i mean, richard harris is cool and all, but does he really need to be in a documentary about cave diving? the film's trying to be deep (get it?) about the psychological drivers behind these divers' actions, but honestly, it feels kinda superficial to me . and those drone shots of new zealand wilderness? nice try, peedom, but we've seen that before . what really gets me is how this film's gonna resonate with fans of cave diving and adventure sports... isn't that just a niche crowd?
