Full of shock turns, moments of horrific injury, polar bear action and tense emotional scenes, Arctic will keep your hands clenched to your chair until its brilliant, breathless conclusion. Mads Mikkelsen (Hannibal, Doctor Strange) gives a tour de force performance as a pilot whose plane has crashed in a remote corner of the Arctic. Stranded in the wilderness he uses his ingenuity to survive. When about to receive his long-awaited rescue, an explosive accident means his opportunity is lost and the dire situation further complicated. The tragic turn of events, involving another crash survivor forces the pilot to make a perilous choice between the relative safety of his camp and a deadly trek into the unknown.

Notes et avis

Perfect balance. Mads Mikkelsen performs beyond the average and surprises the audience as usual. It is the essence of survival movie, describing the ability of people into overcoming their own limits. Very few words, beautiful shots. How cinema should be ... always

Top performance from Mads our Carlsberg man. Oscar worthy? Probably
