This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
... View MoreMost undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
... View MoreAt first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
... View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
... View MoreI've always wanted to watch this movie and finally did get a chance, worth every second.both leading roles were fantastic and did justice in bringing the characters to life. it would be wonderful to watch Annabelle bring to life more characters in the future.She deserves an award for her role in my opinion, and to learn that she actually posses the same skill sets in real life is just amazing. Its the sort of movie that leaves a person with a beautiful thought in the mind. I hope this review can helps others make up their minds in watching this movie, and tryst me you'll be a better person once you have done so/
... View MoreVery much enjoyed this movie. I like Barry Pepper but fell in love with Annabella piugattuk. She looks so natural and is very emotive and energetic. I have not read Farley Mowat's book but it inspires me to read more of his work. As a proud Canadian, I enjoy seeing more about my country and learning about it. There is something magical about the Arctic and highly recommend this to people who want to watch a special movie about this area of the world. The movie was well written and acted. I learned a lot about the Inuit culture and attitude of the people. Barry and Annabella have a real chemistry in the movie making it even more enjoyable. The scenery is spectacular - a must see.
... View MoreIt's 1953. Charlie Halliday (Barry Pepper), a former WWII pilot, is a bush pilot in the Northwest Territories of Canada. On a stop to store some fuel, Charlie encounters an Inuit family. Charlie agree to take a sick girl to Yellowknife in exchange for some ivory. However they crash out in the middle of nowhere.It's a pretty interesting survival story. Barry Pepper is a top notch actor. The Inuit girl is very stoic, somewhat a one dimensional performance. However the landscape and the adventure is unique and fascinating. I don't even want the other stories in this movie. The search and the people back home is unimportant. I'd rather just have the story of Halliday and the Inuit girl.
... View MoreI must say I am very surprised that this movie wasn't released in the theaters. This movie deserves an Oscar. It truly does. The acting is very realistic, there isn't a single scene that ruins the storyline, and the psychology of the characters are well reflected. I am shocked to see that Annabella Piugattuk hasn't done other movies even though she is an amazing actress. Her acting can truly make many of the so called actresses in the industry blush in shame. I wasn't sure how it was going to be at first but right after I watched this beautiful movie, I was filled with emotions. In today's movie world, we rarely get movies this touching and beautiful. Please don't think this is one of those Lifetime love story, or Hallmark religious movies. It's none of that. It's not just a boring movie filled with beautiful scenery either. It's a survival, adventure, and action movie filled with friendship, self discovery, love and emotion. If you're watching this movie expecting Hostel, or Conan The Barbarian with blood and guts flying all over the place, then this isn't for you. But that doesn't mean the movie has no action. No matter what type of movie you like, I can't recommend this movie enough. You owe it to yourself to see it at least once. I'm sure you won't regret it.
