An intense and engrossing but ultimately very flawed film that's just passable enough for one viewing...

an allegorical commentary (from a non-American director) on the United States, all lost at sea and at odds with itself now that it is under the steerage of an incompetent and deceitful helmsman.

Adrift becomes exactly the sort of DTV sequel we so very often ignore.
