Sam Raimi’s “Send Help” is a twisted comedic survival thriller starring Rachel McAdams as Linda Liddle and Dylan O’Brien as Bradley Preston.

This thriller starts with Linda preparing to take a promotion. Linda’s whole world falls apart when her dead boss’s son, Bradley Preston, gives the promised promotion to her work-stealing employee, Donavan (Xavier Samuel).

After the upsetting revelation, Bradley decides to extend an unwanted invitation to Linda for a business trip.

Unfortunately, the plane for this business trip crashes, leaving Linda and Bradley stranded on an island. Linda is extremely happy as she is obsessed with “Survivor” and has always wanted to be on it.

Bradley, on the other hand, is injured and stuck with the one person he dislikes the most. The tension between McAdams and O’brien throughout the movie is fantastic.

Watching this movie and seeing how Linda and Bradley’s relationship develops does not prepare you for the number of plot twists happening between them.

I am so used to seeing Rachel McAdams play beautiful and sexy characters, so watching her play this introverted, embarrassing, and awkward character really shows her acting range. Also, seeing Dylan O’Brien play such a dirtbag and seeing how quickly his character’s attitude can change just shows how far his acting has come.

I will say that the special effects, when it came to blood, were not the best. When Linda would kill an animal for food, the blood would look unrealistic.

The animals did not look good either. They just look fake and messy.

Overall, this movie has great acting, an amazing story-line and OK special effects. If you like psychological thrillers, this movie is the one for you.
