Om den här filmen

Sole-survivor of a plane crash, and stranded deep within the icy Arctic Circle, Overgård (Mads Mikkelson, Hannibal) spends his days surviving on the fish he can pull from beneath the ice while waiting for a rescue that may never come. When a sudden turn of events finds him no longer on his own, Overgård must make a choice between self-preservation at the cost of another's life, or making the trek through the frozen wasteland in order to save them. The debut feature from director Joe Penna, Arctic is a powerful saga of survival in the face of a hostile landscape and the choices that define our humanity in the spirit of 127 Hours and All is Lost.

Betyg och recensioner

If you enjoy these types of sole survival movies (as I do, e.g. Cast Away, Gravity, All Is Lost, The Martian), you will like this one too. Mads Mikkelsen is great as always. The film keeps you on the edge right until the very last second.

The ending ruined the entire movie which focussed on hope and a quest to survive even in the face of great adversity. It would have been good to see that they made it alive. His acting is superb.

Another movie that has potential but doesn't have an ending that delivers.
