Survive

source: Survive

The real question here is how many people watching this movie got a) suicidal thoughts themselves or b) are killed by boredom - the characters are annoying (at least to me) and the exposition of the story is a most boring affair, cutting everything before the plane crashed wouldn't have done any harm to the story but improve the movie a lot. Also, the behavior of our "heroes" in the situation given is rather unbelievable and I guess in such a situation in reality they would be dead within a few hours. The best part of Survive is a) some nice shots of the landscape and b) I can proudly state: I survived the experience of watching this one. Last words: Sophie Turner can do way better, but the material she was given to work with, I think she did okay. Because the production and acting is mostly solid, Survive is not a total crash.

Sophie Turner and Corey Hawkins both perform fairly well and are very watchable, but I can't be bothered to give a broader review because their characters are so stupid and the script and dialogue are daft. This story isn't credible in several places, and the two main characters seem oblivious to the most obvious things to do - like stay at the crash site (given the location) rather than wander off across miles of mountain peaks and snow. Then there's the part at the start where Jane (ST) breaks into the pharmacy at the mental health agency she is in - if it was that easy, there would be no drugs left in the pharmacy! But the most annoying part of all is when Jane and Paul haul themselves into a cave after an avalanche. They are very hungry, cold and fatigued; they're battered and bruised from the plane crash; and Paul has broken ribs, and then gets a panic attack. Yet they have oxycodone and fentanyl tablets with them, which would reduce much of the pain caused by all of the above problems, and allow them to move on - but they don't consider these pills as having any use other than suicide if things get really bad for them! If they both popped a few of those opioid tabs, they could probably have skipped and danced down the rest of the mountain to the nearest town, and we could have ended with a nice sex scene or something. But no. Unless you like laughing in disbelief and shouting at the screen, avoid this movie.

Jane (Sophie Turner) is suicidal and leaving treatment despite still spiraling out of control. Her plane crashes in the freezing mountains. She and fellow passenger Paul Hart (Corey Hawkins) are the only survivors. The movie needs to get to the plane crash sooner. The treatment center opening section is unnecessary and unnecessarily artsy. All that can be revealed later with flashbacks and conversations. When she actually reveals her story, it's underwhelming. The opening is not adding much anyways. Her freak-out at the airport is more informative and more compelling. The plane crash could be better. It would be more logical if the plane crash happens when they are sitting side by side at the back of the plane. The logic is so false that I do wonder if he's a ghost. There is a lot that could be better. Their survival skills are trash although she has one great excuse. One would expect her character to be annoying but he's the annoying one. The locations are cool as long as they use the real locations. There is plenty of survival action but they are generally not filmed well. I don't know much about Mark Pellington but he doesn't seem to be a big action guy. This probably needs to be an action-packed survival film and they definitely need to get rid of the L word. They struggle to get that central premise through and that is what ultimately sinks this movie. I don't buy their connection and the L feels forced.

In the real world this blonde girl would be saying 'Get away from me!' 'Don't come near me!'. She'd rather freeze to death than cozy up to that guy to stay warm. It's also so obvious that it wasn't even cold. You couldn't even see their breaths. The mountain climbing shots were ridiculous & impossible. Overall this movie comes across as a lame music video for the lifetime network.

K:they could have skiped the house part. And the survival part got me excited speacilly that trick she used to protect herself. They could but more work on the plane fall.. it was good but not amazing. But still its good to change the mood every now and then. A: the start was sick.. there somethings sycology ology nobody have to see so they wont be affected. But after first 20 minutes the movie got me very excited as a drama.
