Summary A boss and an employee get stuck on a desert island after a plane crash and the former has to adjust to the new reality.
This is Rachel McAdam’s film fundamentally she carries it, she is the one you root for, she is the heart of the film, she is the funny one. Any plaudits you may have for the film should go to her.
I thought the ending was mixed, on the one hand I enjoyed the tongue in cheek silliness of her corporate rise to power story, but on the other it did feel a little out of nowhere even with the year and change time jump. As it stands the ending is a little jarring.
There were a number of good visceral horror moments that you really felt but these were somewhat let down by a heavy handed use of foreshadowing, which gave away a lot of the surprises before they happened.
Overall, a good effort if not as good as Raimi’s other horror efforts.
2.5/5
Pros
Rachel McAdams
It is funny
There are some great horrifying moments
Cons.
The foreshadowing is too on the nose
The ending is a little jarring
The twists are quite obvious
