So someone is in s place where the only escape it at the top and they can't climb out. It begins to flood. It may not even be a fast flood or one that washes them back. And yet somehow they are going to fie because not only can they not tread water long enough to float out, but they even seem to lack the simple ability of holding onto the side of the wall as they kick their feet to keep their head above water. Hollywood must think we are real morons.

I'd imagine that if the only exit is a trapdoor in the ceiling, it could be hard to get enough leverage to open it while treading water.

Then I would direct you to the movie Apacolypto. It does not have to be a trap door.

Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, 'Where have I gone wrong?' Then a voice says to me, 'This is going to take more than one night.'

that was the first movie that came to mind for me too.
it bugs me when I watch that movie (and I like that movie a lot too), because I'm always thinking how it seems like the rain (that they are always praying won't come yet) would be what you woudl want in that situation...
I mean, if you can't swim at all, sure (which is likely for those people, since they are a hunter/gatherer village, they don't fish so not being able to swim is expected)...but that's not the only movie they do that in.

Want another example? Watch Indiana Jones 4 and the ending where the whole "city" is crashing down around them, yet they get to the deep well, unscathed, that quickly fills with water but just gently spits them out at the top.
And, yes, Hollywood thinks moviegoers are stupid. That's not news.
