Our take
Two office rivals become the only plane-crash survivors on a remote island. Rated MA 15+ for strong bloody violence and language. Sam Raimi's dark comedy mixes Misery-style power games with gross-out gore, improvised weapons and near-constant profanity. Characters drink homemade alcohol and talk about monsters. The humor is vicious rather than cozy. Best for older teens and adults who know Raimi's Evil Dead tone rather than kids expecting a Cast Away adventure.
Uplifting themes
Survival forces honesty, though the takeaway is more cynical than uplifting
Story (may spoil tone)
Two colleagues become stranded on a deserted island, the only survivors of a plane crash. On the island, they must overcome past grievances and work together to survive, but ultimately, it's a battle of wills and wits to make it out alive.

Talk after watching
- Linda and Bradley start as workplace enemies. How does survival change who has power?
- The film asks who becomes a monster when rescue is uncertain. What does that say about office politics?
