    • Trivia
      Many scenes in the movie were filmed in a cold war, 1960s era Titan I underground missile silo in eastern Washington state. In some scenes where the lead character is creating video log entries, a diagram of a Titan I installation appears in the upper right (3 missile silos, 2 satellite silos, and the equipment and operation domes, all connected by tunnels).
    • Goofs
      When Abby and Robinson are walking down the corridor towards Dr. Zek's lab, the shadows of the camera and crew can be seen on the actors.
    • Crazy credits
      Shortly after the credits roll, there is a 30 second scene showing what happened to the recording device Abby was holding at the end.

    An eco thriller with a barebone cast
    People have tried to replicate the success of Moon with various other titles, like Air and Passengers, but they always seem to miss the point that a film with just a few characters needs something more, not less, than a movie with a lot of people in it.

    Unfortunately, that is the case of Atomica/Deep Burial. There are three characters in total, with one of them secondary to the story. And before the big reveal, 20 minutes before the end, nothing much happens than two people talking to each other in a climate of rising suspicion.

    The acting is good, the psychological aspect of the thriller is pretty good, but the story is completely empty, as is the message in the end. And the funny thing is that the science fiction part of the movie is completely superfluous. They could have easily done the same scenario in the real world, with more of an impact.

    As such, with a future world that feels remote and with characters that have no backstory or much character development, the film is just slow and hard to endure, with no real payback in the end, since no one cared what happens in the first place.
