There isn't much to say about this movie seeing as its plot is so simple: a man lost at sea. What is there to say? Well, it's a great movie.
Robert Redford gives a strong performance made even stronger by the fact that there are only about 51 lines of dialogue in the entire movie with 85% of that dialogue in the beginning. You care for the character even though you know nothing about him and you are rooting for him to survive.
I imagine this movie is better if you have some knowledge of the things he tries to do. I did and so I enjoy watching it happen, though I can imagine some viewers may not like not knowing what things are/what he's trying to do.
Visually this movie is beautiful. Almost every shot I was in love with the way it looked. The soundtrack matches the visuals perfectly and has a very serene sound to it.
Overall this movie is amazing. Some people may be bored but not many. Good acting, great visuals and soundtrack, etc.
