Tormenta infinita

Anyone looking for an exciting thriller will be disappointed but I appreciate the cinematography, really beautiful shots of snowy mountains. I view this film as a poem to life experiences. Done artfully. My perspective is that it succeeded in what it set out to do, but is difficult to categorize. I'd award a 6.9. I don't know diddly about rescue operations.

I'm sure that everyone involved with this project had very good intentions and that the real events in which the story is inspired must have been way more engaging, but the end result is rather dull and unremarkable.

I feel almost guilty to describe such a well intentioned story like boring and not engaging, but unfortunately that's what I felt while watching it.

I kept waiting for a twist or a reveal that would add tension or emotion to an otherwise rather dull story of survival, but it didn't happened.

The fact that "John" acts like an idiot almost all the time didn't help.

If you are looking forward a movie with action, adventure and intense scenes.. then it's not your movie.. even the dialogues are few, most of the time the main actress is alone and not speaking at all.. so you can easily get bored... but the landscapes are great,and director did a great job, Naomi also is pretty good and it gets emotionally as the story goes so i guess it could touch some sensitives parts of you. So it deserves a look.. i didn't regret, watching it.

There is a sparseness to the writing which is wonderful. It does not force emotion but gently coaxes. I found the final scene, especially with Billy Howle's story, quite moving. In the end, I felt Pam Bales' story well worth telling. Locations in Slovenia really work.... Ha apparently I have to burn off a few hundred more words for this review to be accepted! So much for sparseness. I will say Naomi Watts does her best work in years and clearly on a difficult shoot. I will make note of the director and watch out for her work in the future. Malgorzata Szumowska! A hard name to forget. Anyway well done Mal!

"Infinite Storm" is a good dramatic thriller with a simple story, a mysterious plot and a very visual development. The pacing is consistent, the narrative is fluid, and the narration uses several flashbacks. The photography is sumptuous, the soundtrack is pleasant and the editing is pleasant. The cast offers honorable performances, but it is essentially the performance delivered by Naomi Watts that gets all the attention. The set is attractive, turns out to be a very beautiful sight for the eyes, and above all, deserves much better than the poor reviews about it. To discover !
