Review
An arrogant boss (Dylan O’Brien) and
the socially awkward, low-level employee he has been bullying
(Rachel McAdams) are the only survivors when the company’s plane
crashes. After they are washed ashore on a desert island, the tables
are turned and the balance of power is shifted. In this modern
hybrid between
Cast Away and
War of the Roses,
Sam Raimi may have aimed for playfully over-the-top – with a hint of
his usual visceral special sauce – but it never becomes either
playful or excessive enough to make a true impression. The feminist
vigilante themes feel sadly worn, and Raimi narrates without
subtlety, using far too broad brushstrokes and an ineffectively
glossy palette. There is not much here of the fresh, perverted
angles and images he once became famous for.
