jeremyzahrte This movie was so cheesy I had register to this site just to get this off my chest. Horrible movie. The plot, stuck in the grand canyon. Boring enough right? Well hey you know what the movie 127 hours pulled it off so a boring plot isn't my problem with this movie. Seems like it almost had potential but it was so unrealistic I couldn't take it. The girl gets attacked by wolves;one tackles her to the ground face to face and somehow doesn't bite her in the neck or face? In a following scene she gets attacked again, tackled to the ground, but only gets bit in the leg? Then she stabs the wolf only for it to die instantly? After watching this I wished my girlfriend would suffocate me too. It really trips me out that you people write good reviews for movies like this. Someone please explain to me how people are rating this 7/10?
handsomebwonderfull *SPOILER WARNING BELOW THE 1ST PARAGRAPH* The one thing that usually bothers me about these types of films is the lack of reality....I try to picture myself in the situation that the protagonist is in, and I'm usually disappointed when the film sways from common sense, to sheer non-sense. This film is no different...*****SPOILER ALERT****** Apparently this film is set in a world where the concept of C.P.R has not yet been discovered!!! I mean the guy wasn't even dead for 30 seconds before help arrived, and even the paramedics didn't try reviving him???????????????????????????????? That's a little too unrealistic for my taste...If I were in that same situation, and I had just "mercy killed" someone I was in love with(so that they weren't alive to get eaten by a pack of hungry wolves) I damn well would of done anything, and everything I could to resuscitate them like 10 seconds later when I saw a helicopter land!!!!!!!!. I understand the suffocation part so my sweet-heart is not eaten alive, but come on....as if you couldn't hear a helicopter coming for at least 30 seconds(especially in a canyon)?????? Then the Paramedics don't even try A SINGLE THING to help revive him!!!! I'm from Canada and I know our health care is a little bit better then it is in the U.S, BUT COME ON!!!
movieman_kev Nick and Lori, a recently married couple from Chicago, decide to make an mule-ride excursion into the Grand Canyon for their honeymoon, however not having the correct permit to do that, the couple are saddened (him decidedly more then her, as Lori is more than content to merely have sex all weekend in the cheap motel that they're staying at), until they meet up with a grizzled old geezer willing to be their tour guide deep into the canyon. But then a lethal snake bite kills the guide, leaving the hapless couple alone in the wilderness.All three main actors give serviceable enough performances and the scenery is suitably beautiful, but the film itself moves at too slow of a clip for my liking and the supposed 'tension' isn't really there either. Shame because the movie started off with some real promise only to all but squander it before too long.My Grade: D+
endura-1 Well I am positively surprised how good this movie actually was. Not sure why sometimes it's branded 'horror'because it's more like dramatic thriller. I liked the story and I liked the characters who were rich and believable. For the first time 'a chick' didn't annoy me:)and there was more to her than meets the eye. The story begins when a couple of newlyweds decides to take a trip to the Grand Canyon. Their guide is a rough, heavy drinking guy, who promises them an unforgettable experience. The trip however does not go as planned. I think this film is a solid piece. Don't expect more than 140min of adventure/survival flick and you won't be disappointed. It kept me focused and interested. Well worth seeing.
