The Grey

I am amazed by how many people on IMDb that have given this movie 8, 9 and even 10 stars. It’s perhaps not the worst movie I’ve seen but it is in no way worth that kind of rating. The good part of the movie is Liam Neeson who makes an enjoyable performance with the script that he was given. He is pretty much the reason that I gave it as much as 4 IMDb stars.

I can't believe it took me so long to get around to watching _The Grey_. What a ride. Don't know that it's realistic but damn it was good. Put me in that wolf pack. Would I be instantly dismembered?

**An unoriginal, occasionally predictable film, but one that stands out for its effectiveness and for its commitment to solutions that are convincing or, at least, functional.** This weekend was definitely dedicated to Alaska here at home. With this film, I saw two whose action takes place in this frigid North American state. However, the best was undoubtedly this one: not only does it have a very convincing story, it also features Liam Neeson in an extraordinary dramatic performance. Directed by Joe Carnahan, the film is an effective survival thriller, taking into account all the qualit…
