Quite likely the worst movie I have ever seen, but with a budget of less than $5,000.00, you can't expect much. Half a dozen poor actors and two small row boats.

I usually love survival kind of movies but the script fell way toooooooo short. But the dialogue was not compelling enough to draw you into to any of the characters. It covers all the normal things that would happen at sea with sepsis for the man that dies with an infection and the other one going nuts and jumping in. And their beards never grew the whole time and their hair still had a sheen to it. Minor details but things I notice when I get bored with a film. Just had to watch to the end to see if they get rescued. You never actually see a rescue but the way the fade out went to mist and darkens after, I say they never got rescued. I would have like to have a scene that lets you know how they ended up like that.

Bad writing, acting and directing. My 5yr old could make this movie.

The writer and director of this awful film obviously have never been to sea. That they can't write dialogue or direct their way out of a paper bag is also evident. The issue is not food, it is water. You can go two to three weeks without any food and a lot longer if you can catch a few fish. But you cannot go three days without water in those conditions without loss of cognitive function and death shortly after. Also 60 minutes of rowing in a day in an open boat would double your water needs for a day. Also anyone involved in offshore fishing knows that it is not the distance to land -- but the currents that will or wont take you into shipping lanes that would matter. There are areas (eg where the Malaysian airliner went down) that have no regular shipping for 1,000 miles. But the area where they were is very close to extremely highly trafficked shipping lanes.

That this movie was a truly athletic event to make is obvious in every frame. Classic Maritimer personalities, a storyline that manages to be both authentic and meaningful at the same time, this is Canadian filmmaking at its best. You could watch The Disappeared just for the cinematography, which proves that skill and vision can trump technological bells and whistles if you insist. The supporting features describe how the director got her shots by using good old-fashioned human determination, rather than helicopters and CGI, and the results justify the effort. I come from seafaring people myself; this movie spoke to me.

Wonderful film - the story was powerful and the characters were both rich and subtle - their back stories were explored enough that I was interested and became attached, but it didn't go into too much detail about any of them. This kept things in the here and now - which was a theme throughout. It was so nice to watch a film that didn't have a soundtrack! I really felt like I was on the water with the guys just hearing their voices, the ores and I think at one point, some whales. And I think music would have taken me out of that. I loved how there was so much silence. Silence is underused and I guess underrated as a cinematic tool, but a great decision was made here to let it carry the film throughout - as if it actually WAS the soundtrack. The silence was both beautiful and lonely. It must have been a challenge to make a film without music or special effects, having only a few characters and props - and still have it be engaging throughout. But it absolutely was. The film does a great job of creating a feeling of being lost and disoriented with time and space - just another way the film makes us feel like we're a part of this journey. On a purely entertainment level The Disappeared is a compelling survivalist story. But on a deeper level the film made me think about all the fishermen (and women?) who have become lost at sea. And to take it one step further there are unfortunate events and tragedies that happen all the time that we don't hear or think much about. And this film can get us thinking about those too. Highly recommended.

Gosh,I really loved this movie.It is a work of art on many levels.Superb acting)i never felt that they were acting) ,moments of tenderness and fragility while 6 manly men battle their way across the ocean with sailor songs and sailor humor.Aportrait of 6 men each with there own reason for wanting to survive.I wish I could say more about it but i can only keep seeing the greyness and the boats in the mist.Ragged men brought to the brink of madness,brought to edge of despair.But as men of the sea will do,they buck up and rally and row..on and on and on.The drama is in their expressions and dialogue.The protagonist is the sea.The hero is the captain of course..as he refuses to abandon any of his men.There is so much hope..and I realized early on that I didn't care so much if they made it or not..i just felt I was with them for better or worse and that was enough.

The best part of the movie is the end. They left it unresolved. The men kept rowing, we don't know if they made it home. This is how it had to end. No corny endings. I had to fast-forward through parts of this movie. The characters/actors leave a lot to be desired. They did not pull you in to the movie. The screenplay is really weak. The actual shooting of the film is its strong point. Technically speaking. This doesn't mean that the shots were well-timed or added cinematic value though. There failed to be any sort of ebb and flow....(like the ocean's currents) to the movie. It was all just blahhh. The film is characterized by blahhhh acting, and a major lack of anything dynamic. Sure near the end, they start going a bit batty....but anyone can act that out. Sure the one guy had to die to add some sort of drama....but there was really nothing incredibly monumental about this whole production.
