Captivating movie !
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
I guess that Matthew Davis, Samuel Potts, and Jaycee Lynn were not longer stranded on that Indonesian island any longer than they were. I have a feeling certain passions and hormones would have started kicking in. It certainly did with the Bounty survivors and the Tahitians who went with them to Pitcairn Island.This same premise two men and a woman stranded on an island was the basis for the classic film The Little Hut with Ava Gardner and her two men Stewart Granger and David Niven. But then none of them were born again Christians.Potts is a new convert, Lynn is a long standing believer and Davis is the office hunk. All three on a trip to Jakarta in a private plane survive and make it to an uninhabited island. After that it's a struggle to both maintain belief systems and get off the island.It's a Christian film with Christian parameters in place. I have a feeling had this been done secularly it would look a lot more like The Little Hut. Believe me none of the players comes close to those three stars.
A young woman has a choice of two men after their plane crashes on a deserted island. The atheist is handsome, superficial, selfish and incompetent, the Christian is plain, judgmental, but all-knowing and all-sacrificing. Which one will win the girl? Mediocre film with self-conscious acting, a poor script, and an obvious moral. It may appeal to Christians, who may watch it free on the Tubitv app, at least in the near future. The rest of the world may want to give this plodder a skip.
