vinidive It could be a great movie pf a fantastic story. Director mess it up. Were they shaved after 20 days adrift? A shark biting a hand and causing minimum damage? Just poor. One of the views movies I could not finish watching
sixteenvolt182 The beginning made it look cheap right of the bat. Odd beginning should have worked in the old Wwii footage later. The story is OK at best, the cgi is terrible the cgi shark was laugh out loud weird never seen a shark look that bad. The the soundtrack is odd for a war movie, it just struck me as to upbeat. Did the director find a friend to do the music cheap? The acting is not bad. I like the captain as an actor last house on the left great movie. No way people are giving this 9's that's why I agree about the fake reviews. Half way through the movie I was thinking I better check the reviews again something is not right. Haha
cuthbertjoel I'm not going to concentrate my review on one scene involving a CGI shark. I will say it looked obscenely fake and did somewhat detach you from that scene as you were too busy preoccupied with the leftover Sharknado prop. Otherwise the film was pretty good. Felton, Delahunt and Abel were all very solid and really evoked the feelings of desperation and humanity relating to the subject of the film. Their performances were enough for me to actually care about the characters and given its also a true story, I found myself more than adequately emotionally invested in the film. There's definitely issues with the film. The score is very hit and miss. Especially the second rate Jaws music in some of the scenes. I've watched hundreds of films worse than this in the last year or so. Did more than enough to keep me watching for 1hr 40mins.
Greywolf907 I didn't expect much from the film but it served up a real treat.A great story of survival against the odds acted out superbly by the three main characters who were all believable in their roles.It's a true story and the three airmen survive their ordeal and live to tell their story.... Downed in the Pacific three relative strangers get to know each other and pull together to survive afloat with little to aid them for 34 days.......that's all I need to say without spoiling the enjoyment of the film for anyone wishing to see it.....Highly recommended, nicely paced and the English lad proves himself a good little actor..Great film...watch it, you won't be disappointed!
