It took some time to get used to appreciating this film. The actors are not the best and you immediately feel that one person is causing problems. The story is paper thin and sometimes the actions are unbelievable. The tension slowly increases to reach a climax. All in all a nice movie, but not a great one.

Exactly what I expected: a good B-movie. It is undeniably a B-movie. The actors are not good. Taran Killam does a pretty good job, but especially Brody and Meester don't do so well. It's a shame they didn't invest a bit more in a good actress to portray Joey. The story is predictable. There are a lot of clichés. Some things are so 'dumb' that it becomes unbelievable. Introduced 'subplots' such as Joey's husband and her relationship with him are also not really used well (there was much more in that). And I could go on and on.
Without a doubt B-movie quality. But if you can accept that, there is still a lot to enjoy. The nature images are beautiful and it was really exciting every now and then. All in all I had a great time. It helped a bit because I like rafting / whitewater canoeing myself, so at times I felt a kind of recognition. By the way: what they call WW class 2 in this film, is at least class 4 in real life 
.
Recommended if you want to see an adventure/survival film around the theme of rafting and surviving in the wilderness with a bad guy in the company and can accept that the actors are a bit worse and the story is a bit clichéd and predictable. It's a shame that films around these kinds of themes (which I do like) are always so badly executed. For me 2.5 stars.
