My daughter dragged me to see this movie yesterday but I ended up being fairly entertained. Although, my inner asshole just kept asserting that there's no way a person would carry around a video camera taping all this stuff if it were really happening. Especially not that guy, whom I found to be very annoying as a character. But, understandably, the concept hinges on accepting that fact...
I also thought the rescue scene was totally implausible.
But all in all, it was an entertaining flick that was pretty effective at making you feel anxious and present within the action.
