Possibly the worst movie i have ever watched. Total lack of common sense. Had he ever been on a boat before this voyage? I wanted to drown him myself to shorten his (and my) suffering.

I'm not a sailor and I was completely engaged, talking to myself attempting to predict what I would do in a squall. A very good movie. Redford teaches us you don't need explosions and even dialogue. Stick with it and you'll be a nervous wreck... like the boat.

All these sailors giving 1 stars need to get lost. This isn't a sailing documentary. I can understand why it would be annoying but that doesn't make it a bad movie. Those of us who don't sail don't know or care about getting the details right. This is an epically good movie which I've watched 4 times already. To make such a great film with so little talking really requires top top top notch acting and Redford does not disappoint.

Hands down, the dumbest, most sailing ignorant sailing movie ever made. It's not even close. If you sail, or just know how to tie a bowline, this move will drive you nuts. The sailing faux pas are too numerous to go into here. Utterly silly movie.

Terrible movie. Nobody gets to that point in sailing, and makes so many stupid; life threatening mistakes. You have to judge the movie based on the sailing depiction, because there is nothing else; no history, no actual character development, no dialogue. Awful movie; just another Redford puff piece he created for himself like "The Natural".

Filme: Até o Fim Elenco: @robertredford_private #robertredford Modelo: #drama #suspense #aventura Duração: 1h 46m Ano: 2013 Minha opinião: Um filme solitário, eu e o mar e o barco. Mas consegue envolver quem esta vendo. Como no filme Náfrago de Tom Hanks, porem com estórias diferentes, apesar dos dois se naufragarem. Aqui temos Robert velejando e podemos supor que ele seja um homem bem sucedido e que entende de navegação em alto mar. E um dia que esta velejando um acidente inesperado acontece, seu barco bate em um contêiner que estava aderiva no mar. Onde ele abre um buraco no casco do navio. A partir daí começa a peleja do filme, se não tivesse ocorrido não teríamos esta estoria. Ele acorda com a batida e observa os danos e começa os reparos. Porem os danos foram maior que se esperava, ele perde o rádio o motor enche de água e falha. E o barco começa a naufragar, então sobra para ele o bote salva vidas. E fica aderiva e passa por tempestade, falta de água e no momento que esta entre a vida e a morte ele encotra uma costa, mas quando pensa que para aí, tem surpresas. Como saber? Assistindo. Roteiro bom onde torcemos por Robert. E uma boa atuação dele. Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 7,5

so fraught with sailing errors, our sailing group made a drinking game of watching it, each person who spotted a goof took a drink. by the end of the movie the whole groupd was drunk! i am a huge Redford fan, but he should stick to horses, he knows horses but clearly no idea about boats.

A movie that shows that Redford can literally carry a movie on his own. A survival tale at sea is nothing new, but the sense of isolation conveyed here is like few others.

This picture had its moments of splendour and awe, but once Redford's little boat sank, the story line took a bit of a "dive" (pun intended!) An excellent visual epic and overall quite amazing, considering only about 7 words of dialogue, but nothing to get "waterlogged" over!

This is actually good. You see old Redford only and almost no dialog throughout, but still glueing. Considering his filmography and career, this would be right for ones of his last act. Minimalistic, excellent direction.

The movie that has no dialogue and is not boring for a single second! Redford showed his greatness!

if this is the worst film you've seen you haven't seen very many.

Robert Redford stars as the sailor known as ‘our man', we're introduced to him yachting solo at sea, and what a sea! This journey doesn't offer us as much to emotionally connect with as did ‘Adrift' and ‘The Mercy' for here, we know nothing about ‘our man's' background - apart from an apologetic letter we witness him write (to what sounds like a family) I'm constantly in awe of the sea and understand the need to respect it but have little love of it...for long-distance sailing that is. So why do some people pit themselves against a virtually unbeatable force? Many who take on the cradle of life, as a challenge to survive, end up losing their life. With little opportunity for dialogue, actions and reactions say it all – this makes the Cinematography most important and both the highly talented Frank G. De Marco (above water) and Peter Zuccarini (underwater – who just the year before scored with the dazzling; Life Of PI ‘12) - never let us down. A most effective music score by Alex Ebert adds the perfect pensive touch. Writer/Director J.C.Chandor, aided by excellent special effects, takes us out to sea and leaves us feeling like we may never find land again. ‘All is Lost', in its own modest way, joins the great sea dramas in cinema history, and the DVD release is perfect.

You can see why the guy is a lone sailor - no-one in their right mind would go in a boat with such an incompetent! My only respite was reading the one star reviews! Dreadful - and Robert Redford is so much better than this dire film.

A gripping and unforgettable drama, All Is Lost explores the simplest of themes—man's survival instinct vs. the harshest forces of nature—against a beautifully filmed backdrop of ocean fury.

Honestly, this movie is horrible. One of the worst movies I've ever tried to watch, and I've watched a few. I really tried, but after 30 min...I just couldn't. It's really, really bad.

So...I get the existential crisis of a man alone against the elements and that it's supposed to be harrowing and since there's only one character it wouldn't make sense (or be necessary) for him to carry on nearly a two hour monologue, because that isn't the structure of the story and that's fine. But Redford *almost never makes a sound,* to the point where it became impossible to suspend my disbelief or have any interest in this movie. It was just completely unbelievable that he doesn't *ever* talk to himself to pass the time, hum a little tune to make an arduous task feel a little less so, or crack an occasional joke to cheer himself up. Again, I don't expect a running commentary for an hour an 45 minutes, but (spoiler alert) he's in the middle of a storm that rolls his boat multiple times and he doesn't really do any more than grunt. Likewise, there are moments when anyone might naturally curse under their breath at something that has gone *spectacularly* wrong and how truly screwed they are, but Redford just breathes a little louder. I didn't need him to be melting down or throwing things, but the fact that he never says anything when naturally someone *would* unless they were mute was truly unbelievable. The conceit of him not speaking came across just as forced in terms of the artistic choice of the screenwriter as it would have if he'd had the character spend the entire movie rambling to himself.

61%. 12/27/21. Watched recently but I guess I forgot to rate it. Basically just him the whole time with little to no dialogue. He's creative in his attempt to stay alive but not a thrilling movie.

One of the most nerve-wracking films I've ever watched, "All is Lost" features one actor, Robert Redford, trying to survive in the Indian Ocean after his sailboat is damaged by a drifting shipping container. His radio and electronics are burned out. He patches the hole in the fiberglass hull, but that's only the beginning of his troubles: There's a major storm coming, and more. Director J.C. Chandor, who also wrote the screenplay, has created a remarkable piece of work. Virtually without dialogue except for a voiceover at the beginning, the film is so intense that you'll find yourself holding your breath several times. We know nothing about Redford's character. There are no flashbacks and no backstory. Just the struggle of man against indifferent nature. I give Redford credit for taking on this project when he was well into his 70's. The physical challenges would be daunting for a man 30 years younger. I read that he was so soaking wet throughout the shooting that he developed an ear infection that damaged his hearing. But his performance is more than just physical. Silent throughout, except for a few grunts and a short attempt to use his radio, Redford manages to express stoicism, pragmatism, ingenuity, desperation, and humanity. We root for him. A 105 minute movie about a lone sailor may not appeal to some viewers, but it never loses momentum. It keeps you hooked. The camera work is stunning. Fifty-eight minutes into the movie is one of the most devastating scenes imaginable. Other scenes at 1:20 and 1:25 are almost worse. You may have seen "Cast Away" or" Life of Pi," but "All is Lost" stands on its own. As to the ending: I won't even go there. Let's just say that viewers and critics will probably argue about it forever.

This movie had the opportunity to make some great viewable moments, and some great statements about humans, and persistance, perseverance, and, you know, life, all that stuff. It missed, with an utterly trite, and all too predictable ending. I was persistently annoyed, throughout the film, by the lack of attention to detail. The hero, (Redford), seemingly NEVER takes care of his equipment and tools. And apparently makes some very foolish decisions regarding same. Interesting idea, very good cinematography, loser story. Is it worth watching? Yeah, sure, if you're in the mood for a B-grade entertainment, it'll do the job.
