Acting is insulting. I love how nonchalant she is from being hit on by her brother in law (no emotion), waking up to the tent being taken out from under her and all supplies stolen (no emotion), hears a gun shot when she's all alone (nothing). I mean, this is either terrible writing or directing... everything about it.... you might need drugs to enjoy this film.

Right up until the point returning PTSD soldier boy turns his back on the bad guy. Stupid! Lost all credibility. Then when the husband does it too I went and did the dishes while it played in the background. It's a good example of when movies should be vetted prior to public release. I'm sure it was a stupid producer who forced the decisions, no one capable of the idea of this film: "It's closed! How can they close a state park?" would be so blind as to write those scenes.

First off I'd like to say that the actors did a real good job. That being said ,the directing had some major flaws. It really took away from what this movie could have been. SPOILERS AHEAD. The first brother was supposedly military trained , was smart enough to sneak back to the shooter In stead of run away and get gunned down . Then overpower him . That's where his intelligence stops. This guy turns his back to the man trying to kill him. Stupid movie. Didn't end well for him. Not realistic on the directors behalf. The second brother out smarts another assailant in a "johnny on the spot" . Overpowers him . Guess what? This brother also turns his back on the man trying to kill him. Another very stupid move, and once again very bad directing. Not realistic. The woman decided to climb the cliff in order to avoid the killers . That's was a smart idea. It was a very dumb idea to climb the highest point of he cliff when 2 meters to either side was so much easier and faster to have scaled. So very unrealistic. Then later on towards the end the woman traps herself inside a playground tunnel when she had so many more viable options . Completely unrealistic. However I don't blame her actors. They played there roles well. Just bad directing.

I know this movie will never win any awards, and is definitely not the best it could have been, but I honestly really enjoyed this movie. Was it entirely believable? No, of course not. There were many instances where suspension of reality is necessary. One thing more than anything else, in my opinion, was the ridiculous idea that an iPhone battery would've lasted them as long as it did... But that's not why I watched this movie. I watched it because I wanted to have some thrills and chills, and that's exactly what I got. I watched it alone in a dark room and it was exciting and a little scary and it had me rooting out loud for the "good guys" to win. I was involved, and I was definitely entertained, and that's not always easy to get from a movie these days. Don't over-think things. Sometimes you just need to have fun.
