This isn't some goofy comedy like Black Sheep or Tommy Boy. Sure there's some funny parts but overall it's a drama/comedy. And it's actually pretty good.

Mountain Men is a dramedy about two estranged brothers who are seeing each other for the first time in three years. One brother, Cooper (Chace Crawford), lives a high-profile life in New York City, while the other brother, Toph (Tyler Labine), is still in the same small town the two grew up in in Canada. While Toph finds out his girlfriend is pregnant, Cooper is dealing with the aftermath of his breakup of his own relationship. When the two of them become stranded in the mountains after an unfortunate incident involving a fire, they must learn to work through their differences and survive the snowy mountains. What follows is a funny and heartwarming story about coming to terms with life and the secrets that come between families.

Watched this on the plane ride back from Toronto. What a surprise! Unique plot, great acting and awesome scenery! Wasn't sure if it would keep me awake on the flight or not, but it sure did (which was a good thing!). Although the plane rated it as comedy/drama, I would have to disagree... drama all the way. Thank goodness for Canadian content! The two main actors did a great job. They remind me of two famous Hollywood actors, I'm sure you'll know who I mean... I mainly came to IMDb to see who the actors were and where it was filmed, but then decided that this film needed another review! I will be sure to watch more of the Canadian films when on my next flight. I encourage you to do the same.

Watched this on a plane back from Winnipeg. The great Canadian experience, visit Winnipeg, then watch a movie about 2 guys stuck in the Rockies.

Although some parts of it is very typical Canadian, they do try to make it relatable to non-Canadians by adding a couple of interesting characteristics to each of the main characters in the movie. And I think they were on the right path but could have done more with it...become even more adventurous with the plot and explore the themes of fatherhood, wilderness, success (and failure), and in general the human condition.

But that might have compromised the realism and the message of real danger in situations such as this (which is very real). Canadian wilderness is very beautiful but can be dangerous as well if you're not properly prepared.
