Send Help

"With its sharp writing, relentless tension, and deliciously twisted power play, the savagery is best. A savage and darkly delicious showdown that must not be missed."

"Send Help is a delicious premise that Raimi gleefully milks for multiple interpretations, with mood shifts, tonal zigzags and gleeful unpredictability that keeps you slightly on edge even when laughing. Rachel McAdams is in fine fettle as the socially awkward yet razor-sharp Linda, handling multiple emotional and moral arcs with effortless assurance, while her chemistry with Dylan O'Brien's Bradley crackles throughout this gloriously genre-fluid experience."

"Send Help is a survival thriller that places Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien in a tense, often darkly funny battle against nature and each other. Directed by Sam Raimi, the film uses survival to explore power, entitlement and quiet personal transformation."

"Rachel McAdams gets a film that lets all aspects of her shine, without distractions of any sort; all women exasperated with playing nice and 'looking nice' to bosses get their day in the sun (and sand); and all men are shown how defenceless they are not wearing the pants."

"Sam Raimi's return to his Evil Dead roots is something to look forward to in the New Year. The Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness director mostly delivers, with sufficient amounts of gore, boar-hunting, and eye-gouging. However, the epilogue, instead of being rousing and uplifting, feels faintly hollow, leaving ash in the mouth rather than the sweet taste of a well-deserved win."
