Bob Thomas Associated Press The Wild North is at its best when it remains in the big outdoors. It's laid in the great Canadian wilds, and the scenery and action thrills are wonderful. But when the story goes indoors, it begins to creak. Jul 24, 2019 Full Review Nell Dodson Russell Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder The picture falls to pieces in the finale, but is still good movie fare.

Patrick F I am a big fan of adventure movies, and although the "Wild North" may not be quite as good as the Revenant, It still has lots of action that obviously was filmed in the high mountains. They encounter wolves, avalanches, and bad guys not to mention death defying rapids that look really real. Granger pulls off a pretty good french accent and the beautiful Cyd Charise adds a nice female element. Granger even becomes a cat lover! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was made in 1952 and our current expectations are different. The scenery is awesome, made on location. The story is of the two men with contrary views of responsibility . Their means of survival in the icy wilderness is the best part of the movie. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review ashley h The Wild North is a boring film. It is about a trapper who goes on the run accused of a crime in the Canadian mountains. Stewart Granger and Wendell Corey give horrible performances. The screenplay is badly written. Frank Fenton did a terrible job directing this movie. I was not impressed with this motion picture.
