All is lost

Watch The Trailers
The film has an actor in it (sometimes combined with the theme of survival) will usually attract people's attention to him. The level of success of the film is different both commercially and in quality as evidenced by the movie Cast Away and I Am Legend until Buried and 127 Hours which if not commercially successful it will be received favorably by critics. All Is Lost too. The film J.C. This Chandor starring Robert Redford's only a movie and it is one that has a strong echo in the arena of film awards this year.

Redford's character in this film does not have a name. The film opens when this nameless sailor woke up and realized that there was a gaping hole in the ship because pounded by falling container on the high seas. This sailor was alone in the boat, but he was a competent sailor. Quickly and quietly he let go of the collision containers on the ship and patched with makeshift equipment on board. From his movements are agile and efficient, we know that the sailor is not the anonymous amateur
The next problem arises for the sailors when the initial danger has passed, he realized that the navigation and communication systems in the container ship was damaged due to the collision. Various ways that he did to try to find help failed. The sailors were not able to do anything other than try to guess the location of where she was and tried to sail to the mainland. However, the high seas is a very dangerous place even for a seasoned sailor. A storm arises and the sailors threatened ... can he survive or appropriate headings in this film really has lost everything ... including his life expectancy?please visit here
Robert Redford is an older generation of actors who never get the love from the audience. He is a respected actor but never to be loved as actors in his generation a la Al Pacino, Dustin Hoffman and Robert De Niro. His name may be known but the number of known among mainstream film with his colleagues lost it. Redford seemed to be trying to change the stereotype that through this film. He wants to prove that he was an actor who could perform total.
And he was very successful in this film. 90 percent in this silent movie without sound where the director just follow the movements of Redford efficient in dealing with problems-his problem in the oceans. How do we know that Redford is a seasoned and experienced sailors? All were delivered by the actor through his body language that is always efficient and do not choose a lot of useless movements: a true pragmatist. Redford was able to show how moral and composure slowly but surely destroyed by the sea ferociously. When misfortune misfortunes keep piling up for the sake of full cry Redford anger and frustration fully conveyed to the audience.
Unfortunately Redford tour de force for more than 90 minutes is not perfect because meaningless emotion involved in it. The only sympathy to the figure of the sailor's only when he roared in frustration. That's it. However, the performance of any as good as Redford he can not make the audience support. Why is he so wants to fight for survival? It is not only because he did not want to lose by the sea has long been a friend of his life? Or because he wants to go back to someone waiting on the mainland? If only there were more background story to the character of the sailors then surely we as viewers would be more sympathetic to his cause. Maybe J.C. Chandor want to experiment in this way but I think this is wrong and it makes the film All Is Lost emotionally bland.


Lucky this film is not entirely removed by Redford alone because the music of Alex Ebert also help revitalize the atmosphere. Not only was the sound effects of turbulent water, the hurricane comes, everything is maximized to help be a secondary actor for Redford. These things sometimes get overlooked by the audience  in regular movies but the movies alone and silent types All Is Lost, indirectly attention was sucked in by the little things that sometimes is forgotten.
