SincereFinest disgusting, overrated, pointless

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Platypuschow I like the concept of a reality tv show going wrong, it's been done a fair few times before but generally in the horror genre.Here we see 6 people with camera's attached to their helmets sent into the desert to solve puzzles in hope of winning a potential 100k. Trouble is the more people who finish the lower the prize!When the staff member travelling with them dies unexpectedly they are thrown in to a real battle for survival. From the dangerous wildlife to the lack of water in the blistering heat and the inevitable betrayals of their team mates.2survive could have been a lot better but alas suffers from a lot of poor film making and questionable writing. Regardless this is a good effort and isn't even as predictible as you'd assume it would be.Great cover art, competent enough film, I'd happily recommend this to folks despite its glaring flaws.The Good:Converys the fear and threat very wellSolid ideasThe Bad:Some real flaws across the boardCouple of major plot holesThings I Learnt From This Movie:Challenges as difficult as those would never be present in a mindless made for morons reality showRunning face first into cacti is a silly thing to doMurdering people while being recorded by multiple sources makes perfect sense

nebk 2Survive starts off with a producer of a reality show discussing what went wrong with the launch of his new reality show when a bunch of contestants are dropped into the Mojave. They are supposed to decipher a bunch of clues and if one of them makes it to the end he or she will earn $100 000. If all make it, then they earn $1 each. At the same time they are not allowed to impede the progress of one another otherwise they will be disqualified. They will also be disqualified if they address the lone cameraman following them. As is to be expected soon things go very wrong and most of the contestants are battling to survive whilst at the same time trying to win the game. This movie starts off interestingly enough but it soon looses momentum. One of the contestants abandons the show and is airlifted out when she speaks to the cameraman. The actions of the contestants often don't make sense after that. When the cameraman is found dead they feel it is better to continue into the desert rather than abandon the game. They also can't contact anyone even though they are carrying mobile cameras and are filmed constantly with both those and motion sensor activated cameras placed in their way. As is to be expected the characters are clichéd and one dimensional. The tough military guy, the ditzy blonde girl, the treacherous guide, etc etc. The acting is not good and the story gets worse as the film progresses. It is discovered near the end that one of the contestants is in fact killing some of the others, even though they are all being filmed 24 hours a day and no one receiving the camera feed does anything about it. As the title suggests at the end 2 survive although this is not technically true as one of the six contestants was airlifted so in fact three of the contestants make it in the end. Overall a bland uninteresting film dealing with a survival show that makes very little sense. A 2.5/3 at best.

philpw99 In the beginning it was seem like a cliché: a group of guys and girls taking cameras with them on a trip and encountered some paranormal phenomenon. There are just too many of them out there already. However this one, in my opinion, was the one done right, like the "Blair Witch Project" long time ago.Unlike all those with extremely shaky cameras, which cause you so much nausea 10 minutes into a film, this one at least have good camera stabilization. You can be sure of not vomiting and holding your lunch or dinner down to the end of the film.The actor and actresses are doing a great job of showing real emotions. Everyone's character is believable and not over-acting. No one is good or evil. They do what they did to survive (or win the game show). There are even one or two touching moments if you are sensitive.The surviving technique and know-hows are not bad either. You will learn one thing or two after watching it. So it's not a completely time-waster.Also the small details like scars, dry lips and a little surprise in the end are good addition too.

mrbusaka Much better than the rating it received (4.1). Don't let the fact that Erik Estrada appears in the trailer fool you. He is in the movie for a micro second. The acting is decent. I am not a fan of reality TV, and to be honest I quite surprised myself when I chose to watch this. I suppose I was bored and in the mood for some mindless entertainment. If I was being even more honest, I was looking for a reason to reinforce my already ample disdain for reality TV. The fact that it was set in a desert intrigued me. I wanted to see how badly they could muddle this up. I suppose the fact that I went into this movie excepting so little was a plus. It moves along nicely with each character well suited to their roles. I recommend it for a one time watch.
