On a cinematic level there is a great deal to admire here, with some elegantly executed high-octane thrills and chills, but regrettably all that means precious little when the script has characters behave in such a willfully stupid manner that you're too distracted by your own cries of frustration to notice. When writers contort their characters and situations to such unnatural degrees just to set up suspenseful scenarios and scares, all they really accomplish is reminding their audience that these people aren't really in danger of being consumed by alligators or treacherous weather because, ultimately, they're not remotely real.
