Really poor acting, and even worse survival writing. It's weird how they can mess up such a easy scenario. That said the movie had such a good story I still enjoyed it. Worth the watch if you can get around the poor acting and stupid stuff, James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 3/25/2021.

As far as being lost - nope, just a know straight line couple of hours boat ride between big towns. How sea, air & land rescue teams could do nothing is not too believable. The trekking by our lost & searching peoples seemed artificial. Acting - not required. A few seconds of fire making using wood friction was dumb.

Not staying in the boat - a made for making a movie decision. Oh, thought it might be "based" on a true story - nope.

I wanted to like this. I love wholesome movies and I love dogs, so I figured it would be perfect. Unfortunately, this particular plotline has been done multiple times by better movies. And goodness, the horrible acting from everyone involved was enough to sink this ship. But the dog was adorable, so I'll give it props for that!
