It seems like forever since I posted something related to the world of action cinema, but this time it isn’t my fault…really. Honestly, there just hasn’t been anything happening. I mean, things are so bad right now that I decided to come onto the internet to type up a report about this story from Variety, which says that a book named DARK LIFE will be turned into a movie by some people who call themselves The Gotham Group. We’ve fallen on hard time’s people.
I have never read or heard of the book in question, but thanks to my extensive research I have learned that it is some global warming book about people living on the ocean floor because glaciers melted, everything flooded, polar bears lost their habitat and etc. There’s also a government conspiracy about something and it can only be brought to light by a teenager from the ocean floor and his love interest who happens to still live on the surface. Will they succeed and save the world from certain misinformation?! We’ll just have to tune in to find out…but the answer is “yes.”
This sounds like TOTAL RECALL to me, only you’re replacing Mars with the ocean floor and Arnold Schwarzenegger with some scrawny kid. I don’t find either of those trades worth my time. Your mileage may vary.
