Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Beulah Bram A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Seth_Rogue_One Although TV series like SURVIVOR can be quite entertaining they are for the more part very much manipulated in multiple ways, the producers put up challenges that they think will benefit certain more interesting characters and conflicts are at times nothing more than a production.Here we get none of that, no votes or backstabbings or alliances, no competitions to get immunity or extra nurishments etc. Not even any contact with any outside human sources such as a camera crew or anything because they have to film their experience themselves.The rules are really simple, 10 people are taken to isolated places in the wilderness miles apart from each other. They then have to try to survive off the land, build shelter and find food sources to last them as long as possible. All while surrounded by packs of wolves, bears and cougars and dealing with often extreme weather conditions.The person who stays the longest wins, 500 000 dollars.So there are no gimmicks or game twists merely survival of the fittest and that is why this is a reality series that is definitely well worth checking out.
hobkirk-44792 I binge watched both seasons. My comments focus on the more successful contestants (i.e., the final 4 or 5.FOOD = #1 issue by far I believe every contestant who tapped out was nearing starvation. #9 had lost 32# after 60 days. #8 after his kayak proved it was not effective at producing food. #10 (winner) went from the verge of collapse and tapping out to "I could last a lot longer" when he found crabs to harvest.CLOTHING & CLEANLINESS? If I wear the same fleece top every day in my house & yard, it starts to look grubby after a week or two. It would look ratty after a couple weeks of backpacking. Did the weekly medical & battery visits include a change of freshly washed identical clothes?Ditto on personal hygiene - I didn't study this, but I don't recall any scenes where it looked like people had dirty faces or grubby fingernails. I was impressed by what the contestants did, whether they got clean clothes or not. That's just a curiosity issue.I'd like to think that I might have been like Mike: create a spectacular home and then give up out of boredom after one month. I fantasize that I'd have been like Niclole: joyful attitude throughout, even as she had to quit because she was starving with no prospects of that changing. (PS - she's brilliant, but it seems she might have stockpiled food, like smoked salmon and greens.)
foneman-44521 As someone who has spent a great deal of time in the back country I can say without a doubt that this is the realest of reality shows. I find it very entertaining watching the contestants do the wrong or right thing and then deal with consequences of there choices. I have also learned a thing or two - like using a tarp to build a boat or something that will float (never considered that, but I have a canoe so I never had to). The longest amount of time I have ever spent alone is 6 days and I have been alone for days many times over the years. I can tell you first hand it can really mess with your head.Storms, vermin, predators, insects even the silence it all effects you. My hat is off to all the contestants who survived for even a few weeks. Your all winners in my book.
Donovan Pechal There are a lot of"reality" shows out there that are just not good and most likely staged. This has to be the most"real" show I've seen on TV. Besides that, it's absolutely the most interesting show I've seen. The mental aspect of being alone for so long always seems to catch up to the contestants. The skills are great, but until you can cope with your emotions, it means nothing. Sometimes the drop off location is not as good as others, but that's the part that shows how good of a survivor these folks are.I highly recommend this show just based on the fact that it is legit and lets you into the lives of very diverse individuals and what they see as important to them. Couldn't recommend this show more.
