Eden takes place on an island. A plane crashed and the survivors are stuck on an island with no means to escape, and no rescue in sight. You'd expect an intense survival thriller movie but instead what Eden gives is a lot of conflict between the survivors, random things being found on the island and making out. You end up not being able to take Eden seriously. Furthermore, none of the characters are interesting and you do not care about them at all. All characters are one-dimensional and from the get go, their attitude and behaviour is unusual. Eden tries to create tension and build up the atmosphere through deaths, scarcity of resources and internal conflict but it all feels pointless. The ending was extraordinarily weak. Right during the middle of the big fight to end the movie, rescue appears out of nowhere. Overall, Eden is best avoided.
