POSITIVES…
Mads Mikkelsen does an incredible job here, especially considering he doesn’t get many lines to say at all.
The mostly dialogue-less nature of this film, really adds to the tone of isolation to the premise.
Considering what this movie is about, I was definitely invested to see how it was going to end.
As a story about survival in a harsh climate, it’s always impressive to see clever / practical survival skills demonstrated on screen.
There are certain story beats that happen throughout the movie, to grab your attention just in case you are starting to get bored with the methodical slower pace of the narrative.
I thought the final act was incredibly emotional to watch, plus that final line said in the movie was just so very heartbreaking.
No, the trailer actually does not show how this movie ends.
NEGATIVES…
People might get frustrated and bored with the narrative. Even at 90+ minutes, there’s still a little bit of patience required to watch this.
Some might have conflicting thoughts on how they feel about the character that María Thelma Smáradóttir plays.
P.S….
