Survive

Oh come on. The basic idea of the movie isn't so bad - classic road to redemption. Buh-huh I wanna die, uh no now I want to live! Why not.

Anyway. As an Austrian I feel compelled to contribute in terms of alpinism. I live in the flallands and I dislike mountains but still, it's in my DNA. Soooo you pretty, troubled kids. WHY on $deity's name are you running UP every mountain you see? I know, because it looks good from a cinematic POV. Why are the running up mountains that end abruptly in veeeery dangerous cliffs? Because it makes for good action when they climb down impossible, steep, slippery walls without skill, equipment and in street clothes just to happily walk up the next mountain?

Kids, REALLY! You wanna walk *down* the mountain, find a river and follow it. Easy, huh!

I'm also well aware that without those stupid decisions by characters we're supposed to take seriously, this would be a very short movie. Making dumb decisions carries it to 110 minutes. There is also a wolf attack out of nothing to add some time. Single wolf, mind you. And here I thought they hunt in packs. But it's nice to see an injured human can outrun and beat him in a fistfight. OK, suspension of disbelief NOW. And sure, after that Marvelous feat, finally find your river and your senses and just jump into the icy water. What could go wrong?

All in all, this movie provides some nice landscape shots from the Italian Dolomites. Which is all I can say about it. Some advice to Ms Turner maybe - find a new agent.

I survived watching it...but none of the characters really deserved too.... Not really an enjoyable story to watch. They've tried to paste a backstory onto it which doesn't fit the movie, the acting is pretty awful, and the characters make the stupidest errors every step along the way. The sentimental emotional story is probably not what fans of this genre of movie are really after. They could have invested that effort into a more engrossing and exciting survival experience. Both the cringe factor and the smh factor are high with this one I'm afraid. Scenery was OK and some effects were decent enough though.

This movie was absolute nonsense. While the visuals were quite stunning, and the acting was good, but significantly melodramatic; the writing and directing was absolutely baffling. It may have made more sense when it was a 12 part mini-series but the idea of sitting through 12 hours when I was already bored out of my mind by a 2 hour movie was simply torturous.

The logical holes in this movie were egregious also. If they had just stayed put when the plane crashed they would have been fine. I guess that wouldnt have made much of a movie, but the decision defied logic. The whole movie seemed like it was rushing itself and I kept asking myself why are they in such a hurry. Movie gotta movie, I guess.

In the real world this blonde girl would be saying 'Get away from me!' 'Don't come near me!'. She'd rather freeze to death than cozy up to that guy to stay warm. It's also so obvious that it wasn't even cold. You couldn't even see their breaths. The mountain climbing shots were ridiculous & impossible. Overall this movie comes across as a lame music video for the lifetime network.

What a dump! Everything that could go wrong with this did happen.

What child wrote and directed this? These two mains had no connection at all! It's all make believe in the shallowest way... they are just 'stuck together' to fill a narrative.

All the injuries and frostbite are completely imagined and the Wolves!

Wolves do not attack humans! There have been between 2-6 attacks on humans in the USA since 1883 and 1 has been a rabid wolf and the other made up or a cornered wolf. Wolfs are afraid of human beings and just like this review of this movie, do everything to avoid contact with the source..
