119 jours: Les Survivants de l'océan

It's not a bad movie, the only problem is that none of them looks like being lost in the sea for 119 days. I'll take that as a production error, for instance, movies like Cast Away, Life of Pi, ... actors would gradually "look" like they've been lost in the sea for that long (skinny, tanned, sun burned, dehydrated, messy long hairs, dirty, torn clothes, ... etc..). But in the movie "Abandoned", actors look about the same from the beginning to the end (check Dominic Purcell's hair ...). Also, most of these types of movies, it will either emphasize the scientific/technical parts, or the mental/spiritual aspects of human, but this movie just very lightly grazed through any of it, and it's a movie that leaves no impact, no thoughts after.

this is truly are great movie. The story is told in a very "natural" fashion, concentrating on the inner feelings of the protagonists. still at no time there is something as length in this film. in opposite its the "little" motions, sudden turns and details that keep the tension up. Dominic Purcell is acting brilliantly and his fellow sailors are doing great as well. I would - just for cinematic reasons of course - hope for a second part. The actual incident was really dramatic, so I really do not want anything like this happen in the real world. I like movie setting in which more or less random people are bound together in a close room or so like "12 angry men". this picture could become one of the cult movies showing how different men cope with critical situations

Made for TV movie (true story) about a capsized trimaran yacht and how it's crew survived for over 100 days. Well done and reasonably accurate about the sailing offshore in a performance multi-hull. Unlike most disaster / redemption films this one obviously was done by people who knew their topic.

I enjoyed this film as unlike most it made me feel they did not dumb down the content assuming everyone watching could not truly understand the situation. As a sailor I found this film quite realistic.

I feel the actors did a good job of representing the people in the crisis and they avoided overacting with restraint.

I'd heard about this situation and the controversy, so seeing the film added a lot of context to news from the other side of the world.

It's amazing they were able to turn what, on paper, is a truly epic and harrowing tale into something so bland, one-dimensional, and utterly anticlimactic. Usually movies are able to dramatize and add a level of excitement beyond the real life events that inspired them. This movie somehow managed to do the opposite. I honestly didn't think that was possible.

It was a good movie but they were lost at sea in an overturned boat for 4 months and the chubby guy never lost weight and his crew cut hair stayed the same short length the whole time lol. It was so distracting because I kept wondering how he's giving himself buzz cuts and why on earth it was even a priority to give himself crew cuts during this 4 month life threatening situation. Other than that, it was a good movie.
