First of all, Bear Grylls is a fantastic charismatic person. Besides that he can rely on his experience in the British SAS.
Now, some of you might not realize how hard it is to even come into the SAS. There is a selection process that has no equal in the world. For Example, you have to go to a mountain and they drop you at the beginning and you will have to figure out where the finish is. It will be a mountain that has paths and you will have to walk instead of climbing...but still it is a very tough route. You got a rucksack full of heavy bricks to carry on your back. And you are supposed to reach the 'finish' in a short time frame. And this isn't even the hard part of the selection. There are even tougher things you gotta do. But i will not talk about it, because i want to say a few things about the show now.
The show has got me hooked since i saw the first episode. It isn't fake like some other reviewer dared to say. The only 'fake' thing is that he is accompanied by a camera crew so he is never in real danger. But i don't mind. This way the show is much more professional and how are you supposed to film yourself while you're trying to climb a mountain?
In every episode you will see Bear eat disgusting things. It's like Fear Factor in the wild. And the faces Bear makes while he eats the revolting things, it's great while you're sitting home watching the show with a back of crisps available to you. Bear is funny in his own original way, and it makes the show complete.
EnjoY the show!

I like this movie, in fact, i like this movie a lot. It's not trying to be what it's not. It's trying to enjoy whoever is watching it and nothing more. It is not trying to be good, it ain't suppose to be realistic. It's supposed to be fun!
This movie is a 'black movie' but everyone can like it, as long as people are willing to acknowledge that this movie is pure fun. Therefore the movie makes sure there are as many funny moments as possible and the atmosphere throughout the movie is fantastic.
It's not all great, i'll admit that, but i think the current rating of 3.4 is only half of what it truly deserves and that's a rating of 6-7.
If you have seen the movie 'Crank'(with Jason Statham) you know exactly what i mean. That movie isn't supposed to be good, it's supposed to be fun. Crank has a rating that exceeds 7.0 Soul Plane is a movie that fits in the same category.
Like it or don't like it. This movie certainly cheered up my day!

This movie has an unlikely cast, Russel Crowe as the 'bad guy' and Christian Bale as the 'good guy'. In this movie the story is basically about the respect that Ben Wade (the bad guy) initially doesn't have for Dan Evans (the good guy), but later he realises that Dan deserves respect for the things he do.
The movie is overall very well made, the action scenes are believable, there is no flaw, only the accents of the Australian Crowe and the Welshman Bale are reason to believe they aren't real men from the wild wild west.
The conversations in this movie display perfectly the mood of everyone throughout the movie. The movie is currently rated 8.1 and it is in the top 250 and that's thoroughly deserved! Movies like this keep the Western Genre alive.
