Lost Wilderness

So far the worst movie I have seen in 2016 and 2017. The acting is poor, fake and it doesn't transmit any emotions. Going to an end-of-the year middle school play is definitely a better option. The movie, despite being set around an astonishing scenery has no capacity of transmitting the beauty of the surrounding. The lightening is poor despite the photography being decent. The sound management is also really bad, something the actors voices are really loud and some other times you can hardly hear them speak because of the surrounding noise. Overall, the screenplay is amateurish, boring and doesn't provide anything other than 2 hours of boring scenes with no pathos whatsoever. I really don't see how people could have rated this **** 9 or 10, this is just pure rubbish. Save yourself this waste of time and engage with something else.

Where to start? 1. Horrible casting, worse than highschoolers 2. The plot is as predictable as it comes. Even worse. 3. The acting eliminates any kind of drama from the plot as they are incapable of showing any emotion whatsoever, regardless of the situation they claim to be in. 4. This is an example of two hours wasted of our time. My wife and I were making a comedy out of it as we could not find any other thing to do with this movie. 5. Somehow this movie had 8.5 stars. We are writing this to make the rating closer to the reality and avoid this traumatic experience to other watchers.

Do you know one of those movies that you will always remember, even after years, due to its poor quality, horrible cast and woeful plot? Jackpot here.

Do yourself a favour: pick a letter of the dictionary and start reading. That's much more entertaining!

Toward end of movie, older boy fell and broke his "RIGHT" foot preventing him from walking to base camp. He came home with a cast on his "LEFT" foot. Somebody screwed up...I cant believe whole production crew missed that one.

There is no Hollywood a-listers in this indie film but for me and my kids it hit all the emotional marks, we laughed, we cried, the bear attack was scary. It's not a big budget film but the location where they shot it contained some breathtaking scenery. Families who have a camping background will appreciate and understand how quickly things can go wrong in the wild.

One bad decision after another put these kids in big trouble. The performances from the young cast was great. It wasn't as adult oriented or hardcore as 'Stand By Me' but the story had that vibe to it.

I'm a musician and appreciated the country flavored guitar based sound track, so I was pleased with that as so many indie films fail in that area.

We are a blended family and it actually allowed my kids to process some of the things they have been feeling in our new family. We recently watch Tomorrowland and my boys liked this better.

Boring, bad acting, voices often covered by sounds, bad lighting, do not waste your time watching this. I could not resist for more than 45 mins, and I am used to watching loads of movies every week but could not help with this crap. Just really really bad. I do not have anything else to write besides but need to fill the lines somehow lol. I cannot understand how this movie got even released and how there can be some positive reviews. It is true that nowadays there is so much crap out there that people cannot even distinguish between a mediocre movie and a good one. So disappointed. The story itself could have had some appeal if only the acting was not so poor. Just a shame really. Giving it 3 stars is already very generous. If I could go back I would not waste 5 minutes of my life for this movie.
