Infuriatingly bad

Rating: 4/10 (24 December 2015)

This movie is my biggest cinematographic disappointment ever. I didn't read the book. I just saw a trailer. I love Leo. I hoped for inspiring survival and adventure movie like Apocalypto or somewhere close. But it was just nothing.
I real gritty and atmospheric is all this movie offers. Gruesomeness. But even if you like that it all gets spoiled by slow hard to believe and hard to make credible story parts. It has sadistically slow pace and genuine lack of substance. Lot of grunting and moaning... And eating raw flesh. Simple, plain, pale and uninteresting plot.
Also guys that get hurt like that by a bear just don't survive in the cold and without antibiotics. You just can't spend few hours soaked in cold mountain cold water up to your ears, get out, make fire in a few minutes. Screenwriters ever heard of hypothermia and wet flint? Wound infections and gangrene? His broke ankle also just disappears over night...
And to end of all jokes tired like that and wounded so bad he fights with one of the toughest hunters and wins.
It is infuriatingly bad just waste of time, and pile of ...
If you still can't resist but watch it, don't feel guilty to walk out of theater or turn the play device off after an hour you will spare yourself and miss nothing.
