03/22/2018 Only 83 minutes!...It seemed like 83 hours. See more 07/09/2017 Jerzy Skolimowski's survival tale benefits from a steady, muted performance by VIncent Gallo. See more 12/13/2016 The story of survival of a man from, what we presume, Afghanistan lost in the middle of the taïga of Siberia. Not a killer by choice, a killer for survival, for the essential. Vincent Gallo is truly a good actor, it is too bad we don't see him enough. Not a must see but a good film. See more 09/10/2016 As purely a visceral thriller it goes well at first but tapers off a bit ineffectually, and the lack of context switches from being a strength, to joining the budget as a limitation. Instead of building some sort of narrative, you flounder around making wilder and ever weaker guesses, until you give up and wait powerless for the inevitable. See more 11/05/2015 Beautiful scenery and I liked the sound effects/texture especially all the small sounds like snow crunching. Made me think about the war on terror from another perspective for a minute. I liked how we got to see everything from this characters POV and came to empathize for him a bit (though I was never routing for him). Makes you wonder about how you might deal with that. I don't know how I would have made out after the messing up my foot. Loved the lack of dialogue See more 09/29/2014 A good film that gives you the first part excitements and ends with scenes of silence while the protagonist struggles. See more Read all reviews
