Survive is a competently done survivalist, end of the world, action thriller, that feels incomplete. This French film has all the right ingredients, a family boating vacation, a sudden, extreme change in the earths oceans and some crime/horror elements, that look promising. Regrettably, whilst this film is superficially, quite watchable, it feels less than satisfying when viewed as a whole. I think the main reason is it doesn't take key aspect of the film's story far enough, for it to amount to anything particularly substantial. On the upside the acting is strong, the character development is reasonable if not exceptional, the core premise and setting is creative, plus the special effects are competently done. In summary, a moderately watchable survivalist, apocalyptic action thriller from France that shows promise but just needed to further develop the key elements it introduces into the story. As it stands, an alright watch.
