There are ways to get around the film's hopelessly cramped space and scope, but director Jason Connery opts to try to make an underground thriller, which just underscores the movie's cheapness at almost every turn.

The Devil's Tomb makes for passable entertainment assuming you aren't completely put off by the predictable plot machinations.

An unusually interminable experience virtually from start to finish...

Let me be clear. I'm giving this one star for Perlman and Winstone, and them *only*. Even Gooding, Jr. falls flat. Hardly his fault, though, seeing as the script was a gigantic mess and the plot even more so. Copious amounts of gore and "Gotcha!" moments won't save a film. *Especially* not this one. [shudder] Avoid at all costs.
