Long boring and gruesome

Rating: 2/10 (9 January 2016)

Here's a film that has almost no redeeming qualities. It spends much too much time with "in your face" symbolism or dwelling on gruesome pictures of wounds, dead carcases, bleeding sores, etc. There is one mishap after another, which might make for great reading but which makes for a boring film. After all, this isn't survivorman, and even that is better than this. Really, How many ways can Leonardo get hurt? Shot, stabbed, fall off a mountain, get hit in the head,... OH, and did I mentioned, get mauled by a bear.
Now imagine Leonardo in a fight with Tom Hardy? What are the chances that Leonardo, on the best day of his life, could take Hardy, on the worst day of his life?
What a big disappointment. If you want a good film about trappers, try Jeremiah Johnson or Centennial. This film is a big big loser.
