Review:
 I must stop judging a movie by it's trailer. Watching a trailer I excepted a thrilling movie about a few men stranded in the cold north trying to survive the wilderness and the wolf attacks. Instead it's like watching a slow suicide. Seven of them left the plane, and for the next hour and a half I have watched them be killed one by one by wolfs. It's just stupid. They had no plan how to survive, what are they doing or where are they going. No weapons to defend them selves, no shelter to protected them... Basically, the whole movie made no sense. And with so many mistakes it's barely watchable.

Rating: 4/10
