2/5
Ponderous pacing makes this true-life tale a lot less enthralling than it might have been. Go to Full Review Derek Malcolm London Evening Standard 09/28/2012

Their little world in the wooden hut they find eventually becomes a microcosm of the real one, where they can leave behind some of the sillier prejudices of war. Go to Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian 09/27/2012

Although nicely produced, this second world war yarn is bland and predictable. Go to Full Review Edward Frost CineVue 02/05/2019
2/5
Plods from one sequence to the next, unable to escape an inherent feeling of transparency, of wearing its simple themes on its humdrum sleeve. Go to Full Review Simon Brookfield We Got This Covered 04/11/2013
5/10
As dramatically potent as a B-tier Disney drama, Into the White, while displaying instances of complexity, is mired by clich and melodrama. Go to Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com 03/08/2013

Generates a satisfactory amount of suspense and personality to achieve its limited goals, successfully spinning routine with welcome attention to character. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Tim Q @RT39241652 07/12/2024 Shows humanity at its most vulnerable. Great film. See more B. L @RT18127022 04/11/2024 A great film. The atmosphere and the interaction of the people in the lonely hut are portrayed in a dense, authentic and credible way. Fortunately, the usual cliché "Germans are Nazis and murderers - Brits are gentlemen and heroes" is avoided. This also sets this film apart from other war films. A film worth seeing, also and especially because it leaves the beaten track. 9 out of 10 points! See more Jelisije J @jjosifovic 11/28/2023 A great movie of two groups of soldiers must band together in order to survive the harsh elements of Norwegian winter during WW2. See more Alex M @RT42696998 12/20/2022 Most of us are just regular people, we will always have differences but at the end we're more alike than we are different. However, most of the times it takes extreme circumstances for that to come out. See more 02/25/2022 This movie is a testament to when movies were about feeling and character development. I have an appreciation for stories that show the simple difficulty of being loyal to country and still value the ability to develop friendship in strange circumstances. These days movies show killing on the screen at an outrageous pace. Shock value is no longer shocking. This movie made me feel something for the characters. It brings back some of the sense of the value of a single life and the shame of losing it. See more 01/12/2022 Didn't know what to expect, more than pleasantly surprised. Excellent script, terrific dialogue and direction. The cast is tremendous, each character is perfectly cast. The German Lieutenant, played by Florian Lukas, held my attention above all, his acting, range of emotion displayed and nuanced sense of humor were outstanding. Truly a wonderful WWII flick and story of brotherhood and survival under terrible circumstances; the conditions of an awful war and brutal weather. See more Read all reviews
