I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Siblings Bonnie (Kirsten Dunst) and Sam (Zachery Ty Bryan) are flying to Vancouver on a small plane when it crashes. They survive and is found by Khonanesta, a native protector of the bears. He warns them of bad men, poachers out killing bears. He guides them to a nearby logging camp but are constantly hunted by the poachers.The basic problem is that the poachers have no reason to kill or kidnap the kids at the beginning. The story has to be written better. Khonanesta might be better as a guardian spirit. It's that unreal and it would be more compelling. The poachers don't make sense. Then the cops and parents arrive. Nobody really makes much sense. They barely have a gun between them as they ride into the woods full of armed poachers. The guns always jam as the poachers get mauled by the bear. It's just a lot of bad writing.

Spoilers herein.This is an absolutely dreadful film in every way except for the appearance of the remarkable Dunst.She has turned out to be an ordinary adult actress, but as a child she was spellbinding. Here, the role is undemanding, but see the mark of a good actress in that she gives more than the pedestrian director demands.Part of that young talent was in understanding how to create and use the `Lolita mouth,' that reverse smile that can persist through the whole character. It is derived from a pout but turned into a token of engaged personality. We lost something when she grew up.Ted's Evaluation -- 1 of 4: You can find something better to do with this part of your life.

kirsten dunst can't even save this movie with its wooden, awful acting... the two teenagers are truly ignorant of their surroundings and the plight of wildlife so what they doing there anyways?... they repeatedly do stupid things... it could have been really well done but is pretty much unwatchable except for the beautiful scenery and nice music... but that's just not enough to save it... good message for children and family time though...

I tuned in and i thought that it was going to be a bad film, but i was miss lead by what i had red about. I have to say that however great an actress Kirsten Dunst is, she seems to have the same type of emotions in every film that she does. I though Zachery Ty Thomas was a great asset to the film and overall it was very enjoyable to watch.Totally worth watching 8/10
