This movie had quite some potential. Yes the focus is on family drama and it has some exciting moments, but the further the story progressed, the more they let go of logic and common sense. A 7 year old kid who gets fractions at school and half of the time acts like an adult needs a carseat and doesn't know how to unbuckle a seatbelt? small airplane vs shockwave? driving away from a road and into the woods without knowing where you are or where to go? most of the plotlines were thought up for extra drama but didn't feel necessary or were too forced to feel natural. some of the actions were cringe worthy. The acting wasn't all that great....
so why 4 stars still? Because if you stop thinking about it, it's actually an ok movie and entertaining, but other than that.... it's just bad and a shame of potential.
