Review of Eden Lake (2008) by Bill B — 24 Sep 2012

A young couple decided to go for the nice romantic trip in the forest. They are being annoyed by bunch of young people, who seem to be very agressive and obnoxious. Soon the situation will be out of hands for both sides.

This movie has a potential and it would be a great survival story if it wasn't so disturbing and quite dull. Jenny is character who instead of looking for the help she's going back for his boyfriend and just watch from the distance how cruel he is been treated. She does a lot of silly and unreasonable things. Although, people in shock and panic do a lot of illogical things - this plot is a mix of realistic and extreme unrealistic events. However, it makes you think about surviving ways in the forest and what you would do if that happened to you.
