While floating in the middle of the Indian Ocean, a sailor himself to make a journey of discovery, his ship accidentally impacts with a container ship. The impact makes the hull be punctured, water spills gradually into the compartment. Not only that, he still faces big upcoming storm. When standing in front of the vast ocean, being disoriented, losting ships, seeing the anger of Mother Nature, how does he pass?
As grim and hopeless as things could possibly get in a movie called All Is Lost, the movie is essentially about perseverance: playing it smart, staying safe and not giving up until -- well, see the title.
The success of All Is Lost is to be a physical film that ends up with emotional reverberation, right down to the last shot that engulfs us and Our Man in the depths of the ocean, with only a faint light shining from above.
All Is Lost is very much Redford's triumph. His turn isn't pure disappearance so much as a brilliantly human example of cresting and plummeting, cresting and plummeting.

Frank G. DeMarco and Peter Zuccarini, dual cinematographers, gather gorgeous imagery especially those captured from beneath the ocean's surface.
