6 / 10
Translated from swedish: A well-crafted Swedish disaster film about a family in a crisis-ridden Kiruna. Suspense that follows the molds of how Hollywood usually handles the genre. For better or worse.

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: According to a well-known film concept, a battered core family is in focus, updated with Tuva Novotny's hands-on heroine. The drama has its flaws, but the action scenes are where they need to be.

Translated from swedish: Could the 'first really big disaster film of Sweden' be something worth having? Yes, it sometimes bursts at the edges but still shakes - in a truly Swedish way.

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: Sure, if you want a serious disaster movie where the subject of family is at the center, absolutely. But to be honest, I've seen other Hollywood movies do it just as "well" and still deliver on the action front.

Translated from swedish: I admire the ambitions and the most exciting thing is actually that it was filmed to some extent in Kiruna, which gives the film a little extra edge. Imagine if it could actually happen?

Translated from swedish: "The Abyss" is the first truly big Swedish disaster film, and depicts a collapsing Kiruna. Unfortunately, it has a bit of trouble filling the big Hollywood costume.

4 / 10
Translated from swedish: Plastic clichés, semi-mafia-esque special effects, and grand ambitions. "The Abyss" is a Swedish disaster film that manages to avoid collapse largely thanks to Tuva Novotny's dedicated performances.
