timonmosimann I liked how the movie began, very good characters, especially the sisters. They kinda saved the movie with their acting performance, so that it's still worth a watch. There are some very great emotional scenes. With the story, i expected more, especially at the end. I was waiting for the great finish or the big ending but it sadly never came. The movie probably is not so realistic, but for me it's a movie and i don't need it to be realistic, for that i can watch a documentary about survival if need be. All in all not a bad movie but neither a great one.+ Great Acting + Soundtrack - Story

savethecloudsfoundation This is a bad movie. But I think this is how America would be if it was ran entirely by women. They'd just burn it down and leave.

areatw I've seen my fair share of dumb apocalypse scenario films, ranging from the far-fetched to the completely implausible, but 'Into the Forest' takes the biscuit. This film is just ludicrous, dreadfully written and featuring characters without a brain cell between them. Anybody with an ounce of common sense would never do what the characters in this film do to survive, in fact they would often do the complete opposite.Why would anybody choose to sleep outside in the rain and freezing cold when they could just sleep inside? Why would anybody in their situation burn their only shelter, and their own home to the ground, and then live inside a tree? And why would anybody desperate to survive waste their valuable time and energy doing bizarre and pointless exercise routines? 'Into the Forest' is one of the dumbest survival films I've ever seen.

SnoopyStyle In the near future, Nell (Ellen Page) and Eva (Evan Rachel Wood) are sisters living with their father (Callum Keith Rennie) in the isolated woods. A power outage strikes the country. After 10 days, they drive into town to find no gas and a threatening darkness descending upon the world. The father dies in a chainsaw accident and the girls are forced to deal with the ongoing power outage.I don't want to give Eva an out and dismiss her actions as simple girlie inferiority. There is an issue with a lack of common sense from Eva. I have issues with other characters as well. I don't buy Eli walking to Boston and leaving Nell for a hope for a job. I do buy one thing and one thing only, the chemistry between Page and Wood. These are two solid actresses and they present good work as these characters. They have nice sibling chemistry and the movie flows well from that spring.
