Also some of them only require a little common sense to answer. Especially the " where did the harvested trees go?" If you only thought before you typed that you'd know they were HARVESTED!!!! Also "that one guy" who's name is Pete didn't know Neeson was suicidal at all Neeson never told him he was and Pete didn't follow him when he was going to shoot himself, no one knew about that but Neeson. And yet again a lot of the "Glaringly Obvious plot holes" are "Glaringly obviously" understandable if you only think in the mindset of the survivors, as in the fact that the plane crashed, adrenaline is clouding your thoughts and also the fact that your being chased by well organized blood thirsty animals forces you to get out of any open spaces… that and the sub-zero temperatures further lowered by the wind that batters the men because there weren't any trees where they were, plus the human nature is to find covered areas to create a shelter, its a psychological fact. plus the guys leg didn't heal but he got another huge adrenaline rush which helped him muster through the pain until he stopped and the pain caught up with him as the adrenaline flowed out of his blood stream. the one thing I agree with is the boom sticks, they only used three and they just left the other three, i doubt they just forgot their main means of fending them off, also did anyone notice the shells he picked up right after the plane crash were shotgun shells not rifle ammo, he didn't bring a shotgun on the plane.

Everything there was true except for "brilliantly"--Neeson made so many stupid survival mistakes I couldn't stand it. Some people argue, "No, you don't get it, it's a character study, not a survival movie." Sorry, for a movie like this to work the Neeson character should have known what he was doing. It's like when you see a heist movie like "The Town," you want the heists to be good, right? Or else what's the point? By the end of the movie, I wanted Diaz to say to him, "You know, I told you you were a big, dumb, Irish f--k and you kicked my ass. Then everyone made you their leader and thought you knew what you were doing. But I was right all along and you're getting us all killed. So f--k you."

Everybody knows water is bad in cold situations. He didn't have another change of clothes, he just magically was dry. He was DRENCHED.

If they are so worried about piracy, they just proved they could before anything was passed.
