EpicLadySponge Jul 25, Adrift takes the romantic-drama genre with a sudden drift-in-a-drift Pacific hurricane that comes out of nowhere to create the weakest plot I have ever seen in a romantic-drama film. No worries though, everything else makes it up for the absurdly weak plot.
TVJerry Jun 5, Although it looks like this movie will be an on-the-seas survival story based on a true events , it's actually more a romance. Shailene Woodley is travelling the world one odd job at a time, when she meets a charming man with his own boat Sam Claflin. They set out from Tahiti to San Although it looks like this movie will be an on-the-seas survival story based on a true events , it's actually more a romance.
They set out from Tahiti to San Diego, but run into a hurricane that leaves them injured and stranded. The filmmakers decided to tell this story in a constant back and forth between the events leading up to the catastrophe and the aftermath. This interesting approach makes any kind of momentum difficult, whether it's the destructive power of the storm or the strong bond of their love. Even though the endurance challenge has its moments and the romance is sufficiently sweet, the combination waters down the effect of both.

Denise Richards and Christopher Atkins also star in this romantic story of resilience, strength and the courage that lives within us all. When events are unfolding on the yacht, Adrift rides the line between good and great filmmaking thanks in large part to Shailene Woodley's outstanding performance. To properly assess Adrift, the latest lost in the wild adventure, it would seem the most logical thing to do is compare it to that of the wave of recent films with similar premises and or ideas with the main objective being to determine whether or not it does anything different or at least attempts to bring new ideas or layers to the experience.
Fortunately, it still works no matter your disposition thus leaving the overall impression the film leaves to once again rely on how effectively what we as an audience have been trained to know is coming is conveyed. It's one part survival-at-sea drama, one part relationship drama, and you get an equal slice of both until an unforeseen ending explains why the narrative was so divided. Based on a true story, Adrift tells the journey and survival of a couple Shailene Woodley, Sam Claflin lost at sea for 41 days after getting too close to a hurricane. Woodley takes the lead to fix the sailboat, gather supplies, tend to the grievous injuries of her boyfriend, and plot their treacherous path to Hawaii.

Plus it also makes more sense by the Tully-esque end.
This is pretty much Woodley's HBO's Big Little Lies show; her secondary co-star might as well be her nipples poking through her character's swimwear and tops. As readers may know, I'm a big fan of Woodley and the naturalism she brings to her performances, and Adrift is no exception. She can say so much through her smiles. She's a great anchor for a storyteller.
Ultimately, Adrift is a survival drama that takes a while to get going but leaves a favorable impression thanks to the acting and technical merits. More Top Movies Trailers.
