Survive

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.
