Synopsis
Starring Shailene Woodley (The Divergent series and Big Little Lies) and Sam Claflin (Me Before You and The Hunger Games films), Adrift is based on the inspiring true story of Tami Oldham and Richard Sharp, who sailed directly into one of the most devastating hurricanes in history while en route from Tahiti to San Diego. When Tami comes to after the storm, she finds their boat seemingly beyond repair and Richard badly injured. Nowhere near land and entirely off the grid, Tami must do everything she can to save herself and the man she loves.

Atom User Reviews
for a pg13 film, nudity was not expected or needed. definitely going to rethink taking kids to find that are pg13 now. first we have pedophile show dogs... disturbing. and nudity in apg13 flick. disappointed.
I didn’t like how they made the movies back and forth
Metacritic
Woodley and Claflin make an attractive pair, but they’re not particularly convincing playing people deeply, deeply in love. There’s something lacking in the conviction department there.
Director Baltasar Kormákur makes good use of location filming on the open waters, giving this melodramatic tale a dose of realism, but this true story is never as harrowing as the subject matter would suggest. Blame it on a misjudged narrative device and Adrift’s generally adolescent approach to relationships and maritime emergencies.
Adrift avoids the perils of most survival stories, thanks not only to its strong cast and well-structured script but to Kormákur who manages to succeed at capturing the tone of both the intimate moments and the ones where a building-sized wave looms over Tami and Richard.
