Steineded How sad is this?

Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life

Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

lisafordeay Usually live action Disney movies are sort of a hit and miss for me. Some of my all time favorites include Enchanted,The Parent Trap,Mighty Joe Young and of course the new Cinderella movie were all very good. So a friend of mine recommend this film for me. The film stars the late Paul Walker plays a man named Jerry who's dogs have to fight to survival as a snow storm was in the Antarctica as Jerry and a doctor(played by Racing Stripe's Bruce Greenwood)found a rock near Antarctica along with Jerry's dogs but of course the Doctor ends up getting injured as he fell into thick ice and must leave Antarctica to get some medical treatment. But Jerry misses his dogs and must try and find a way back to Antarctica. So will his husky dogs fight for survival during the bad winter storm?Surprisingly I found this film very good. The acting is great especially Paul Walker who was great as the main lead character. The story is based on real events like I said and its a very heartwarming film.Overall I am giving this a 7/10 and I would like to thank my friend who recommended this film to me as they know I am a Disney nerd who loves Disney movies. Check it out and see what you think of it.

Rawal Afzal One of the most unique concept of all-times and everyone involved has to be commended for making it happen. The dogs' survival, the way they confront every situation and how they plan things leaves you between a smile and tears.It is a film that makes you ask yourself whether we as humans in general have been grateful enough for the kind of support and help we can get from some of the animals in our daily lives. In this film for example, the success of the mission as well as the survival from a certain death of that scientist was completely based on the sled dogs. None of it would have been possible without them. Of course it is a film after all, but it is still an example. In fact, the most intelligent part of the film was showing that the dogs were the main contributors in the mission anyway, which makes the viewers sympathise with them even more.One objection though is that the count of the number of days might have been over-stretched a bit. Showing that they had survived so many days just didn't seem right. So that could have been shown as fewer days than that. My objection could be completely pointless and baseless though if according to the experts dogs can indeed surive so long. But still, it didn't seem right to me and I just typed out things from my first impression, without studying whether they could survive for so long or not. I might study it some day though....Again, a brilliant film overall!

Roedy Green This purports to be a true story. It is thoroughly Disneyfied, though not quite as anthropomorphic as Homeward Bound.Much of the story shows sled dogs barking and barking and barking. We are supposed to take this as meaningful communication and careful planning of the stunts we see next. The dogs are well trained to make it look as if they are much cleverer than they really are.Did I mention the barking? It really gets on your nerves after a while.There is lots of swelling music to tell you when to feel elation.The humans are quite one dimensional. One has a monomania about rescuing the dogs that seems a bit kinky for a Disney movie.The movie takes place in the worst (sunless) winter in Antarctic history. Yet, of course, for filming, you need clear skies and bright sunshine so this supposed danger does not seem too threatening. The dogs even after six months without being fed in the cold of an Antarctic winter are as fat and frisky as ever. "8 Below" is not that cold, even for Canada. I wondered if somebody made a mistake coming up with the title.There is one scene when something leaps out at you. Elderly viewers could have a heart attack. It is completely unexpected. My adrenalin was racing for minutes afterwards. You only expect that kind of a jolt in a movie like Alien.In summary, a little too corny. Perhaps it would work for younger viewers.

ravi-putcha I kept wondering why are they don't fly in when the weather is so good - sky is clear, there was no storms or anything and they just don't want to go there. The dogs starve but engage in confusing ensemble for sharing food - polite ballet doesn't fit into sled dogs life style, does it? The physical and emotional stress that follows expeditions in tough weather are missing altogether (remember The Edge?)Leading lady shifts between caring and flinty attitudes unable to decide what to do. Protagonist despite all this love for the dogs let months pass by before deciding to go to Antarctica. It is a pale movie with weak story.
