During a solo voyage in the Indian Ocean, a veteran mariner (Robert Redford) awakes to find his vessel taking on water after a collision with a stray shipping container. With his radio and navigation equipment disabled, he sails unknowingly into a violent storm and barely escapes with his life. With any luck, the ocean currents may carry him into a shipping lane -- but, with supplies dwindling and the sharks circling, the sailor is forced to face his own mortality.

Jason Bailey

Flavorwire

A vital, exciting piece of work from Mr. Redford, an actor whom you'd have been forgiven for counting out by now.

The Australian

It's a rare example of pure cinema, and that, in itself, gives it a stature to which few Hollywood films these days aspire.

Deep Focus Review

All is Lost is a commendable and engaging motion picture, but also a rare achievement in spare filmmaking.

Rated: 3/4

Keith & the Movies

With only a man, a boat, and the vast sea, Chandor shows his versatility as a filmmaker by embracing the confines of his environment and making a movie that feels grander than it may be.

Rated: 4.5/5

Don Shanahan

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Commanding the screen without his smile and very few words, Redford gives an acting clinic on screen presence in this exhilarating and striking survival drama.

Rated: 4/5

All these sailors giving 1 stars need to get lost. This isn't a sailing documentary. I can understand why it would be annoying but that doesn't make it a bad movie. Those of us who don't sail don't know or care about getting the details right. This is an epically good movie which I've watched 4 times already. To make such a great film with so little talking really requires top top top notch acting and Redford does not disappoint.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Hands down, the dumbest, most sailing ignorant sailing movie ever made. It's not even close. If you sail, or just know how to tie a bowline, this move will drive you nuts. The sailing faux pas are too numerous to go into here. Utterly silly movie.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Terrible movie. Nobody gets to that point in sailing, and makes so many stupid; life threatening mistakes. You have to judge the movie based on the sailing depiction, because there is nothing else; no history, no actual character development, no dialogue. Awful movie; just another Redford puff piece he created for himself like "The Natural".

Filme: Até o Fim Elenco: @robertredford_private #robertredford Modelo: #drama #suspense #aventura Duração: 1h 46m Ano: 2013 Minha opinião: Um filme solitário, eu e o mar e o barco. Mas consegue envolver quem esta vendo. Como no filme Náfrago de Tom Hanks, porem com estórias diferentes, apesar dos dois se naufragarem. Aqui temos Robert velejando e podemos supor que ele seja um homem bem sucedido e que entende de navegação em alto mar. E um dia que esta velejando um acidente inesperado acontece, seu barco bate em um contêiner que estava aderiva no mar. Onde ele abre um buraco no casco do navio. A partir daí começa a peleja do filme, se não tivesse ocorrido não teríamos esta estoria. Ele acorda com a batida e observa os danos e começa os reparos. Porem os danos foram maior que se esperava, ele perde o rádio o motor enche de água e falha. E o barco começa a naufragar, então sobra para ele o bote salva vidas. E fica aderiva e passa por tempestade, falta de água e no momento que esta entre a vida e a morte ele encotra uma costa, mas quando pensa que para aí, tem surpresas. Como saber? Assistindo. Roteiro bom onde torcemos por Robert. E uma boa atuação dele. Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 7,5

so fraught with sailing errors, our sailing group made a drinking game of watching it, each person who spotted a goof took a drink. by the end of the movie the whole groupd was drunk! i am a huge Redford fan, but he should stick to horses, he knows horses but clearly no idea about boats.

A movie that shows that Redford can literally carry a movie on his own. A survival tale at sea is nothing new, but the sense of isolation conveyed here is like few others.
