Torture to watch!

Rating: 3/10 (7 January 2016)

The opening scene for a few moments seemed dramatic and impressive, but after the first minute I was convinced it was taken on a sound stage. I am not reviewing the whole film, because I bailed at the 30 minute mark. My gut was churning. I was wreathing in agony. I was experiencing the kind of claustrophobia which only escape can relieve. The first thing that hit me was how inane the dialogue was; right from the start, and how wooden it sounded. Literally wooden. It had no plausible purpose. The entire opening dialogs sounded hollow and fake, like shot on a sound stage. Everything seemed fake: the dialogue, the scenery, the snow. But the worst was the acting . . . amateur like a high school play where actors read from a teleprompter. The initial plot(that's all I saw) was implausible. The plot was fake. The snow was clearly fake. The actors sat in it, wallowed in it, and fluffed it as if it were warm and fuzzy. Finally, at the 30 minute mark, I ran for the exit, and a tick refund. I gave a great big sigh of relief, that I had onlywasted one hour over this worthless, poorly produced piece of fake fluff. You know bad acting when you see it, and when you see it, there is only one remedy. Run for the exit. I'm glad I did.
