n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
... View MoreA movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
... View MoreThe film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
... View MoreThere is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
... View MoreI thought that the movie was really cool how the thing that was stalking him was copying everything that he did, and I think this movie is very underrated. It was interesting how he was a TV show host and was a survival expert. I really liked it, until all the tension and buildup of the thing stalking him turned out to be some crappy CGI alien thing. I thought that this movie could've been one of the best I've ever seen if the thing stalking him was a crazy guy who has killed anybody who entered the woods. The whole alien thing really ruined it for me and the ending was disappointing, but I still say that you should give it a try and watch it.
... View MoreNo, this movie won't win an Oscar, but it is a fun ride. It's a good take on the Bear Grylls genre of adventure survival shows.
... View MoreIt's a film that worth seeing in Netflix. Not a big budget film and you can understand that from the CGI but has to appalaud for the way it's done. Bales to keep your attention throughout. Don't expect too much but I guarantee it you won't be disappointed.
... View MoreIf you have not researched this move, then what I am about to post is not necessarily a spoiler. The pacing of this movie was excellent until the last 20 minutes. I thought that the Predator angle on this had already been done by Predator, and Predator was a lot more intimidating. Let's start with the pacing. I thought they nailed the flow of setting up the arc of the movie quite well as the original thought was there was a a psycho out there in the woods. They patiently set up scenes where it may have stayed true to a reality survival TV series. As Doug, the main character discovers that someone is stalking him in the woods, the story takes on a suspense and wonderment into the character of the stalker. Had they continued on this theme this would have been a great movie. As the movie turns and the stalker is revealed in the last 20 minutes, the pacing is thrown out the window and it becomes Predator without Arnold and credible Hollywood action sequences. The alien plays chess with Doug and taunts him. That is never developed and we don't know anymore psychologically about the alien except that they have some control of the earth. It was like they ran out of the budget before they could finish the movie. An interesting glimpse in the psychology of the stalking alien would have made it more interesting, a backwoods psycho would have even been better and would leave a lasting impression and have a greater psychological effect on the viewer
