#float

I'm not really sure what to say about this movie except what I put in the title - it really seems unfinished. It's only 75 minutes and I think it really needed 15 more. A lot of movies are good until the end, and it's like they didn't really know how to end them so they come up with a really bad ending. This one sort of takes another approach - the plot isn't bad up until the end, and instead of giving it an ending, they just kind of ended the movie abruptly. Honestly, I'm not really sure what happened at the end. You're left not knowing if the creepy guy is good or bad. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this one.

I would give it a 10, if it was supposed to be a comedy, but it is not. I's supposed to be horror. LOL I'm guessing the writer was high in the sky, and I am not talking plane. Basically, a (am I allowed to use the word bimbo?) gorgeus millennial, influencer with her cellphone attached (she is floating in the water with it) and friends go on a rafting holiday, where the year before one of their group drowned. (You would not catch me in a pleasure trip where a friend of mine drowned, but that is just me.) I'm not going to give the plot, lol, but lets just say, in horror movies the likelihood is that people will get killed. Another viewer gave a 2 for the beautiful scenic view. I am not that generous.

Being a horror movie following the tropes of this genre there's an understandable formula of hating some characters and liking some others.

But this movie breaks this formula by making you hate everyone, literally, no one has and redeeming features.

The enjoyment is gained from everyone getting some sort of comeuppance.

No one seems to really care for anyone else.

.. Kid goes missing, no one really cares, except for the god awful 'parents' ... friend disappeared under water accompanied with a pool of blood, oh well, let's keep floating and chatting and drinking.

The pacing is weird, audio awful almost like it's all done in ADR, acting is passable but made worse with the awful dialogue.

Whilst the production quality is reasonable, don't let this deceive you in to thinking it's an average film, it's just not.

One this is for sure, everyone of them are certainly 'floaters' 🌊 💩

At about 30 to 40 min the movie gets stupid It's hard to explain how it's just disappointing actors don't seem to care about their friends. There is no sense of urgency there is no emergency. The one is always on Instagram even though her friend was taken right behind her. The movie is just stupid plottedid. The trailer was a lot better than the actual movie can't believe. I paid 3 bucks for the stupid thing. I mean there's no urgency nothing the characters don't seem to care about nothing and no one. The cast could have done a little bit better by improvising practicing. The role would have showed a little bit more determination in the movie to make a movie feel as I thought it would be in trailer. Anyways. This is a corny movie don't get it.

I've watched four horror films in the last week or so. Skinnamarink, The Outwaters, The Black Phone (again), and this. It is not fair to Compare all of those to each other for many reasons, one being budget. While not the lowest budget here, #floaters sure feels like it is. Amateurish screenplay, directed adequately but not able to coax out a single good performance. While I would certainly watch this again before Skinnamarink, I hope to watch neither. Now that We've killed enough characters, here's the review: cheap, bad, forgettable. Sadly six hundred characters are necessary to say that. Wow.
