Just what I expected
Better Late Then Never
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Reading the other reviews here for this movie, I see a lot of "worst movie ever!". In my opinion, that's not true.I'm a huge fan of the "found footage" genre, so I bought this one (just about 4-5 $, and gave it a shot. After watching it last night, I've gotta say; It's not as bad as many of you're saying. There are many FAR WORSE found footage horror movies. Some of them I shut off after 5 minutes, but I didn't do that with this one. One thing I liked was the whole plane crash concept, because I think it's kind of original. I really enjoyed the ending too. Many found footage films has a horrible ending..you know that if you've watched a couple of them. But don't get me wrong, because it doesn't deserve more than the 4/10 rating I've given it. Still, if you're into this sub-genre, I think it's worth at least a rent, or if you find a cheap-as-hell copy out there.
Don't want to spoil a movie for anyone! The actors and actresses played great roles. There's complete closure at the end. Shot in first person video in present day. If you direct a movie that is supposed to be in present day, how about make the events believable and not silly. I didn't mind knowing what was after the people, but most of the events that unfold are outlandish. It's like a 10 year old directed the movie with the help of his dad! The first part of the movie takes FOREVER to unfold and once you're into the thick of things it is just plain disappointing. I usually stick with a movie no matter how bad it is to give it a fair shake. I did that with this one, but I came closer than ever to turning it off. You can watch it if you want, but just be prepared to lose interest, and be disappointed.
Let me start off by saying Abigail Schrader has the voice of a whining, dieing cat. From the beginning scene all i could think of was how annoying she was. However, i gave the movie a chance. It started off as a "suspenceful" plane crash, where the plane somehow changes appearance after the crash. Next is about and hour of shaking cameras, annoying dialog, and half blur images of what appears to be a raptor. Later when everyone is falling prey to these dino's they find some eggs.. "WHOA! plot twist!!", actually no. its one of a whole group of random scenes that do nothing for the movie. All in all it was a waste of my time to watch, but i bared through it, and wish i would have stopped half through it, because the end is ruined by a $50 t-rex image,that is too small of scale to even seem "real".
When you sit down to watch a horror flick the last thing you want to deal with is a bunch of loud, obnoxious and whiny people that are preventing you from enjoying the show. That is where this movie falls on its face from the word go. Seriously, we have something as miraculous as a group of misfits surviving a plane crash in the middle of the desert, but within 10 minutes I would have rather they all perished and the movie ended immediately. But let's focus on the plane crash a moment. Each and every passenger is coated in blood like a bunch of blood-frenzied vampires from what appears to be gaping head wounds. That's cool and all but it doesn't slow them down for a second nor does it shut them up. Half the party is locked up over a girl that has a splinter in her forearm or something about that critical. A tourniquet is in order for this poor girl. In the mean time some fool is running a video camera and blinding everyone in the face with it. I was amazed that the plane was in shambles with all cargo strewn about the desert but conveniently the camera with the giant lighting assembly is unscathed.Things are moving along, including the fat man that is singlehandedly annoying the crap out of the rest of the survivors. He does manage to find food for the survivors. This is when things start getting ugly. "I sar two eyes, I sar a tail, I sar some teeth" now I don't know about these idiots but I sar a dinosaur. Fast forward through an hour of them sitting in a shed crying and yelling at each other that leaves the great escape. They finally manage to find a radio and call for help and are told to go back to the plane. they find an SUV and drive back to the plane but the driver decides she doesn't like one of the other guys so she just casually runs him over. But I don't want to give away the end of the movie so go out quickly a watch this so you can see how this masterpiece ends.
