2. Summary

   Perfect 5.0

   With All Is Lost, J. C. Chandor proves Robert Redford is still awesome. Try to name a director and actor that could make a movie with no dialog not just interesting – but downright gripping. Redford is a sailing MacGyver – scrapping things together for survival despite the odds. The filming and it’s angles above and below the waterline are masterfully done; the story alternating between stress and relief for the duration. And the ending? Did I already say masterful?
