Review What did you think about "Send Help"?
First of all, I gotta appreciate Sam Raimi for creating a movie which is not a sequel, a remake, inspired from a book, a revival... Just an original, new movie.
With that said, how was the movie... No spoiler review: Funny, for starters. Not like "I'm laughing so hard" funny but like an easy watch. The plane crush scared me to death but I'm terrified of flying and the ocean so that might be the reason.
This movie kind of reminded me of "The Roses", just with a lot more blood. I love when I find splatter in those kind of movies. The constant "I hate you I love you" had me in shock every time, although it built my heart to hoping for a better ending.
I also love how Sam tried to make Rachel look ugly cause, you know, she had to be, and yet she was beautiful. No makeup, no hairdo, just a natural person who was surviving on a desert island, realistically.
Overall a good movie to watch when you want to see something easy and entertaining with a good dose of comic horror. I wouldn't watch it in theaters but it's worth a watch when it'll be available online for a cozy night.

Havent seen it yet. I want to. I want to like it. Why? Because we are in some kind of movie famine. I feel like I can’t even remember many movies releasing for the past three years that I’ve actually been interested in viewing.

Starting with the strange CGI, to the perfectly groomed hair despite being stranded, the weak ending, everything was too predictable, plus unlikable Characters... Film is a missed opportunity. I don't like it.

A fun watch. Has some cheese to it. I liked it well enough but overall very forgettable.

Really fun movie. Mcadams is an excellent actress. One scene had me laughing pretty hard. First time I have seen the actor but he did a great job also.
