Leave your thoughts about Adrift.
| Film InquiryEmily WheelerIt sets out to entertain, and in its modest way, it does. Adrift may not be everything you want it to be, but it's just enough to be satisfying. |
| Lainey GossipSarah MarrsAdrift is a solid survival tale that avoids the histrionics and sap that often plague the genre. |
| Times (UK)Kevin MaherIt's as if the gods were suddenly angered, then placated. It's pure Homer. It's high art. It's pulp. It's fun. |
| El Pais (Spain)Javier OcañaAdrift's timelines elevate the the sequences at sea due to the romantic blast occurring throughout. [Full Review in Spanish] |
| ObserverRex ReedIt’s a true story, basically a two-hander about a pair of courageous lovers lost at sea, as crushingly hard to imagine as it is to watch, but every element is so perfect that it left me shaking and devastated. |
| The Arts DeskAdam SweetingWhen the boat becomes little more than a scrap of flotsam in the teeth of gargantuan waves and howling winds, the terror is palpable. |
| The Public (Buffalo)M. FaustThe way the story plays out is not inaccurate, but it is misleading, and hampers the effect you would think a story like this would most want to provide. |
| ChrisStuckmann.comChris StuckmannIt looks amazing, but the issues I kept going back to were in the structure...all the tension is diffused whenever we cut back to the past. Those sequences feel rote and familiar. |
| Arkansas Democrat-GazetteDan LybargerWhile it's probably a concession to reality, it is refreshing to see a film where a female protagonist isn't passively waiting for a rescue. |
| Toronto StarBruce DemaraThe result is a film that will draw you into an absorbing tale of two lovers forced to test their mettle to the limit in a high-stakes, high-seas adventure. |
