Eden

Plot loses its way. Underdeveloped. Two male leads do a good job with a less than compelling script. (I only watched this because I thought it was the movie with the same name from 2013 starring Beau Bridges but I was wrong!)

This film begins on fine footing, we're introduced to all of the characters and all of the requisite personality types are present for this type of story. It continues a little predictably but I was still with it. Then all of a sudden, and with no signs of it coming, all of the characters suddenly turn hyper-paranoid and aggressive. There's no gradual progression down this path which would make it plausible and engaging, but very abruptly so that it's not only unrealistic but makes the viewer feel insulted that the director would actually expect us to accept this. In addition, it enforces negative gender stereotypes - the men are all aggressive hot-heads and the women are passive observers of the random barbarism of their male counterparts. This film really is a mess and honestly feels like a waste of resources and talent.

Started off reasonably well although I think the airplane crash scene could have been longer and more interesting.

Up until the point they find the Japanese soldier all was proceeding well, then it all just went to pot. Lord of the Flies this most definitely isnt!

The illogical actions that no one would do if abandoned on a desert island in the middle of nowhere and the poor story just weakened the whole premise and the ending well....SANDS OF THE KALAHARI - I guess the director had just watched that classic and thought he would throw that ending in lol

Could have been good but like most of the films I am watching over the last few years, they just dont seem to have decent story writers and cannot sustain the pace that a good film needs to keep audiences involved.

The fighting and the beating between the male characters of this film is way out of what someone would expect under a situation of food scarcity. I mean I understand tension arising cause of the sudden and abnormal situation that the group is facing but that goes way out of that. Same goes for all the swimming between the 2 islands which they have more than a mile distance. Swimming a distance like that in an open ocean is a very exhausting activity even for athletes. Same applies for the sexual encounters that happen. Overall a cheap production that is hardly convincing.

It appears to be directed and written by a teenager with excessive testosterone.

Unrealistic. With egocentric, alfha males measuring who has the biggest...

Very, very, very bad.

What a waste of time...
