Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Gonzalo Arijon's documentary Stranded offers an incontrovertible argument for the necessity of team spirit in the face of catastrophe.
Fresh: Stranded, which combines testimony by those survivors with staged reenactments of their ordeal, is the opposite of sensational.
Fresh: Stranded: I've Come From a Plane That Crashed in the Mountains is an oxymoron: a docu constructed from re-enactments, talking heads and no actual footage of the story it tells, but that still packs a knock-out punch.
Fresh: A film impossible to forget.
Customer Reviews
So Moving!
This film is so moving! The story had been told before, but not by the men who experienced it. The interviews are intimate and gut wrenching, and the recreations are so atmospheric. You almost feel like you've been through it all with them. Brilliant filmmaking that inspires you to think about some deep issues. Bravo!
