A plane crash strands a group of oil drillers on icy landscapes where they have to find way to get help and survive the deadly elements and pack of wolves from the woods.

Indeed, another good thrilling movie with Liam Neeson. It reminded me of the film "The Way Back" only this film was set in a cold Alaskan location with all the cast walking, running, and fighting for survival. With a lot of action and thrilling scenes, also with a good mix of dialogues, this film surely be enjoyed by everyone who are looking for a good watch. |

Liam Neeson (and company) vs not only a plane crash and the elements, but really huge freakin' wolves. Despite the premise, this movie actually has quite a bit of emotion going for it. Still, each character only gets just enough development that you feel slight sympathy when they die horribly. Worth watching, but in the end somewhat forgettable. |

Criminally Underrated Horror |
|
This was one of the most underrated films of the year, and I frankly was incredibly surprised by the films quality. This movie was released in the earliest bits of the year, which is usually a garbage can were studios can dump movies they don’t know what to do with. 2012 was no different, but among all the awful horror flicks and un-funny comedies there are movies that are legitimately good, and The Grey was one of those movies. It’s A Diamond in the rough.
The movie is full of a horrifying sense of hopelessness. The whole time you know that are intrepid adventurers are doomed and that the wolves, animals that have lived in the ice and snow for thousands of years, will inevitably win. This movie is unlikely to have a happy ending, yet despite that it gets you invested in the charac... |

This film inspired biggest dissapointment list!!! |
|
Before i begin reviewing this so-so film i have to mention that this film has inspired me to create a new movie list entitled 'Biggest Hollywood Dissapointments' that will place this movie at #1 and probably will remain #1 for some time. I had such high hopes upon seeing the trailer for this. I am not the biggest Liam Neeson fan at all although at times i will agree he shines and can actually be quite cool. (His performance in the Taken films for example) I had heard, which later turned out to be alot of whooey, that he of coarse spends a majority of the film battling wolves of gigantic proportions, sure their were wolf attacks unfortunatly though too dark and fast to even see the wolve pack at times, however none involved Neeson's charector like i was told. Now for those that havent s... |

The grey left me cold |
|
I expected much more from this film. liam neeson rarely does a bad movie. and this isn't a bad one but its not quite what it was potrayed to be in the press clips. and certainly far from his best.
It isn't about some killer monster wolf or anything like that. its basically a straight forward simple survival of the wlld movie. Their plane crashes and those who are left have to survive in the cold wilderness while the wolves are just waiting to attack . basic concept really !. The wolves themselves were dissapointing and rarely seen on the screen as much as you would expect. i kept waiting for something good to happen but it didn't go as expecting then it just ended when i finally thought i'd get to see something good.
more of a made for tv movie i thought than a big release.
