- TriviaWhen the project was announced, Jake Gyllenhaal, Ansel Elgort, and Zendaya were cast in the lead roles. All dropped out after the project was stuck in development for several years. The roles later went to Ben Foster, Toby Wallace, and Jenna Ortega.
- GoofsWhen the rescue helicopter spots the survival raft, the message sent gives coordinates "at 42 degrees east, 65 degrees west." Coordinates are supposed to be latitude (north or west to the equator) and longitude (east or west to the Greenwitch meridian). It should be 42 degrees north, 65 degrees west (somewhere south of Nova Scotia, Canada). Moreover, those coordinates are quite vague for a rescue mission. 1 degree is about 111km long (69mi) in latitude, and about 85km (83mi) in longitude.

Featured review
Stellar performance by Tommy Lee Jones, but that is about the only real positive this movie has to offer
Quite a slowburning, bleak and depressive story, that is certainly not suited for the casual viewer who might be (wrongfully) expecting some sort of fun action thriller, which it is definitely not and was never meant to be either...
The good: Tommy Lee Jones steals the show with his stellar performance as the father of a son (Ben Foster) in dire money troubles. But as magnificent the performance of mister Tommy Lee Jones may be, actor Ben Foster just didnt cut it in the dramatic scenes, in which he (and all the other actors for that matter) failed to deliver true drama.
True drama needs credible acting performances from ALL the actors concerned. Now we have only Tommy Lee Jones performance to deliver true drama, but his role (however important) was of a supporting nature, which makes us viewers have to deal with other leading actors who fail to impress.
