Survive

Great movie! The acting were breathtaking! Sad ending! But overall great movie. Starts slow but give it a chance

Aka, how to turn a great photography human interest story into a fully orchestrated false sentiments soap opera. The script sadly and fully inconsistantly moves by the episode from a truely gripping opening into a highly unrealistic peptalk drama that even the nowadays Walt Disney studios would probably be too ashamed to subscribe their name to. From the twist in the plot, one predictable cliche from A to Z, accompanied by a rediculously overdone full orchestra musical soundtrack that desperately tries to even enhance the already completely unproportionally overromantized message.., and a shame it is, for the first few episodes really did show a lot of promise..

Does anyone remember the 90's movie ALIVE? About the South American Rugby team that crashed into the Andes? The true story about how they had to resort to cannibalism to walk the mount.... dammit it is the same movie but not done as well. Did either one of these two drink any water during their trek?

And they make you pay for it too! Quibi has some money behind it and it will probably last, but Survive has to set the tone for this new "network," and they haven't done so yet. Users have voted this a 6, and I must concur. Apparently, this series (or rather a movie with an interruption every 8 minutes) is supposed to be about plane crash survivors, but early on it's about a suicidal drug thief who ditches her young sister. She isn't very likable. I guess we're supposed to feel for her and she'll turn into a hero? Eh. Maybe this would be better if we could watch it on a television, but Quibi's braintrusts decided to offer this on phones only. Also there are 2 entire episodes in the middle of this series that consist of the drug thief and the bossy stalker sitting in a cave talking. Talk about slowing down the action! (It's also a cliche because every Lost-in-the-woods story has the scene where they "just happen" to discover a nice warm hunting lodge or a convenient cave.)

This show was great a solid 8.5 to me. Sophie and Corey killed it and the ending was heartbreaking. Definitely recommend, the better half of quibi
