Featured review
A survival film on water
"Something in the Water" is an incomplete emulation of classical survival movies, featuring recurrent scenes typically set in forests or deserts. The struggle against nature, the burden of carrying an injured companion, moments of futile hope, and the gradual reduction of the group's numbers are prevalent themes, effectively employed in "Something in the Water."
Despite its beautiful location of filming, impressive underwater and helicopter shots, and strong performances by the actors, the film remains somewhat unbelievable. While in some small parts of the film, audiences can engage with its thrilling scenes, but these few moments are repetitive and boring.
While the film aims for a feminine perspective, even with incorporating contemporary sexual clichés such as homosexuality and dialogues concerning girlish tendencies, the screenplay fails to meaningfully contribute to this goal. The story's trajectory would remain largely unchanged if male characters were substituted for the five female leads.
