In an attempt to try and relive old times, an estranged sister and brother duo decide to go on a rafting trip, accompanied by a few others which include the latter's unhinged childhood friend which is a dead giveaway that bad things are certain to happen. A supposed remake or more appropriately a standalone sequel to the vastly superior Meryl Streep-Kevin Bacon thriller, but aside from the title and a whitewater setting the two have almost nothing in common; this is one of those movies where you have to constantly question, or rather just yell at the screen while watching clueless characters make one foolish decision after another. It helps a little that the scenery is nice, it hurts a lot that the acting is unimpressive and the outcome pretty obvious. **
