Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Great survival film. I have to say to the people who are complaining that there was no dialog, slow burn, or impressive scenery these are people who are not interested in more than the regurgitated garbage that comes out of Hollywood they are expecting the “Fast and the Furious” type of movie where the actors all look perfect and beautiful and fully made up and every shot is something out of a coffee table book. This movie is gritty and real. The Artic isn’t always beautiful it is harsh and unforgiving. Being stranded you may not have countless conversations with a volleyball and you don’t have action packed adventures of being chased by a polar bear or dodging storms every second of the day. Mads proves again that he is an amazing actor. Deserves an Oscar but I don’t have faith that he will be recognized even though he should. For a small budget film this was amazing and I give Mads all the credit in the world for taking a chance on this. If you are a fan of the tv show “Survivor Man” you will like this. If you are a fan of “Man vs Wild” and expect urine drinking and staged action packed fluff you won’t like it. This movie is about the unbreakable human spirit and hope.
