Drama based on the 2010 San José Mine accident in Chile. 33 men are working in the unstable San José Mine when it collapses, trapping the miners inside with no means of escape and very little food. Mario (Antonio Banderas) takes charge of the situation and does his best to ensure the safety of his colleagues, splitting the food into rations and diffusing any tension. With the miners' families arriving on the scene and demanding action be taken to save their loved ones, the government sets up a rescue operation, but it will be over two months before any of the men make it to the surface again. Will they all survive the ordeal? (Warner Home Video)

I was expecting it to be a bit more dramatic, which it ended up not being, but on the other hand, there weren't even the emotions that I expected. What I liked was the acting of the well-known names, who allowed themselves to be overshadowed by the rescue mission itself. They don't want to stand out, and I really liked that about their performance.
