SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

killbasa Yes, it's just another wilderness survival reality show, right? But then, not really. Seeing the initial ten contestants, it's clear that many will drop out quickly, and they did. It is not until later episodes when the stress and stubborn egos take over to create an interesting scenario of self destruction. All the common aspects are here to see. The eager drinking of dangerous raw surface water. The reluctance to construct shelter. The tendency to sit idle and ignore the needs of basic sustenance. Only two of the contestants have the skills to meet the challenges to any degree, much to the dislike of all the others. They then become targets of attacks and bullying.The twist on this is the volume of genuine currency to burden contestants as they must carry it, but also entice them to spend it on frivolities for highly inflated costs. The eventual result is quite amusing as a group of angry and wasteful individuals abuse and deprive other contestants as they see high levels of waste as necessity. As with all bullies, the levels of arrogance and denial reach the standard heights as the larger group behaves like nothing more than a street gang of thugs.Then the fun begins. Losing members, which included the leading thug that orchestrated the abuse, the group of bullies is forced to even ground with their two victims. As turnabout is fair play, the bullies then suffer the consequences and the expected tantrums are the result, even to the point of destroying $60,000+ in cash. At this point, I have yet to see the ending of this. The former bullies appear eager to destroy an incredible windfall to merely coddle their crippled egos as they display their intense emotional personal challenges, and an incredible level of denial.

Trista Banx from the 1st episode, I wanted Gina to go home crying over messy makeup and lack of everything else to survive in a place like that. It's unbelievable that she made it to the 7th episode. If she wins any money in season one, I will never watch this show again if there's a season 2 or more after that. I cant even imagine her making it past day 3 on that island by herself, let alone making it this far even with everyone else. And the guy that left because he didn't like being wet all the time. Ummmmm yeah kinda stupid reason to leave a lot of money just because you might be rained on for 40 days of your life. Try dropping Paris Hilton on that island with no money, no other people, and no pizza, even for 24 hours and see what happens... that would be more fun to watch :) Dropping a dumb cocktail waitress that complains about her mom's horrible apartment because she's been raised by Kim Kardashian, and she makes it through most of the 1st season ? .... I'm seeing this show getting trashed before it even gets started lolI like that they put people on the show that would never be able to make it, but the least likely to make it being in the last 4 of them is really annoying.

atlasmb "Stranded" is a reality competition that feels familiar. Ten people isolated on a tropical island have to face the hardships of nature and survive forty days if they are to collect prize money. Naturally, there will be outwitting, outplaying and outlasting if the contestants are to win the million dollars in cash.But this survival show is the best I have seen thus far. It comes closest to breaking down the players and exposing the basic principles by which they lead their lives.Without discussing the mechanics of the show or its hardships, let me say its hardships are real and are both physical and emotional. These are not survivalists nor have they trained for what lies before them. In fact, it seems that they have almost no knowledge of how the game will be played until they arrive in Fiji with only the clothes on their backs.The contestants are all young adults--what some would call millennials. However, this is not merely an exploration of the psyches of millennials. Principles are at play that are common to all generations.In just the first few episodes, we see how far people will go to rationalize their own impulses. We see them reacting out of fear in ways that may surprise them when they review their actions later. And we see heroes emerge--those who stand up against injustice in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. The definition of real strength manifests itself. See if you can guess from the start which players will be the virtuous and which will give into their baser instincts. Some may surprise you.This is drama and suspense mixed with some humor. And if you pay close attention, you may see the exposure of some common beliefs about social goods as mere fallacies.

Drei We have watched a number of reality surviving game TV shows, some to name Naked and Afraid, Hunted, Survivor etc.This show is nothing like the others because there is no sense of danger, no bad choice besides using up money to buy stuff or voting against buying to screw over other people. All of the contestants are young pretty shallow stupid people (oldest is 24 I believe). Idiocy at its best. The only reason we are watching it is to see what stupid stuff they do next, to see them all fail. Honestly we are not rooting for anyone, we just want to see all of the contestants fail miserably, hoping they all get food poisoning (hardly an issue when they can order food dropped in).It is so bad, its like watching a slasher moving and actually wanting to see the killer take all of the actors out. In this case mother nature is the serial killer yet she has a hard time beating them when they have 1 million dollars to throw around on items. I won't even mention the fact that their though process is extremely idiotic, it makes no sense for people in their circumstances to behave like that unless it was all for the show.A lot of people watch extremely stupid shows so they keep making them.The idea is intriguing but the producers should have though out the rules of the game in much more detail. It also feels too scripted, why would you do that when having any kind of common sense you clearly could do this instead and be better off? Like I said, the other shows actually seem more natural (if they are or not), this seem fake.
