Well I suppose this was an apt time of year to show THE GREY. With freezing temperatures and snow on the ground I could kind of relate to how poor old Liam Neeson was feeling..... Well not really, but it was fun to watch.
If you’re looking for a riveting storyline and outstanding cast, you’re watching the wrong movie. If however, you want on the edge of your seat excitement and suspense, then this is the film for you. Liam Neeson can carry any role and is as smooth as ever as John Ottway, an oil plant worker, employed to kill wolves that threaten the lives of his colleagues in Alaska. Grieving for the loss of his wife he contemplates suicide on the day before he is due to leave. On the journey home, the small plane he’s travelling in crashes during a blizzard, leaving the few survivors to fight for their lives in freezing conditions while being hunted by a pack of wolves.
They realise the chance of being rescued is slim and begin the long walk for survival. The film in based on a short story called Ghost Walker by Ian MacKenzie Jeffers and follows their journey and their battles with injuries and the elements, while trying to outsmart the wolves. It all ends with survival of the fittest!
My rating 3/5
