Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Teddie Blake
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

I will say that movies are meant to entertain and in this respect we can't always expect the most realistic of situations to play out. However, this film is just plain stupid!.Let's say for one moment 3 snowboarders/Skiers get stuck on a chair lift and it's really high up. Could the Director have not treated the audience with a semblance of intelligence? I mean one guy decides just to jump down to be the hero without using any tools at his disposal. Doesn't try and tie a jacket or 2 to lower himself down. No of course not just jumps down and breaks both legs lol. If he had done this and then is unlucky and breaks his leg on a rock then it would have added a lot more credibility.Before we even get to this stage, the movie was made in 2010 yet not one of them had a mobile phone to make a call. That's the most unbelievable part of this whole movie. I mean they could have got round this with the phones not having signal due to the bad weather. Still unreal but at least would have been better.Big CAT drives below them and they throw down a few bits of clothing and a pole instead of a snowboard to catch the drivers attention. I mean really?Wolves manage to eat the two male characters. Yet when the female faces the wolves they just walk away because they had just had dinner. LOL Ridiculous.
These wolves must only come and eat people when the ski resort closes then. Film could have done without the wolves all together. May aswel had gone for a deadly snowman. Film was so stupid May aswell had gone whole hog, at least then people would have expected stupidity.The resort closes for 5 days in peak season just when the protagonists get stuck. Suuuuuuuure!We have no one zipping up their jackets. We have people falling asleep with bare hands touching metal. Why not just go one better and stick your tongue to the metal bar.I reckon they could have made a really good movie here if they had thought about it a little more. I'm sure the audience would have appreciated it.Instead we get absolute nonsense which is so stupid it insults everyones intelligence. AVOID

Don't bother watching this. I wouldn't class this as a horror. Snoozefest maybe. There are so many idiotic decisions made that are just so unrealistic. And the things that happen (besides the girl sobbing like 90% of the movie) are not believable.
Have a read of the other comments with spoilers to see lists of all the unrealistic and unbelievable things.
And then some are just outright harmful LIES - like the wolves. Wolves DO NOT act in the way they are portrayed. Who paid for this movie? The sub-humans at the wolf hunting and killing associations? Lies to mislead viewers into thinking wolves are like they are portrayed in the movie to keep up the big bad wolf narrative so people will continue to be afraid of them and continue to be fine about a beautiful intelligent endangered species continuing to be slaughtered to extinction. The people that made this movie should be ashamed, not just because its a slow and stupid movie but because of the immorality. Whoever owns these wolves should also be ashamed for letting them be shown thus way and exploited.
There's also needless gore and there is suspense at times, and missed opportunities to make the movie better.

Although the premise is unique and interesting, the movie is anything but. The first 20 minutes are completely uninteresting and boring, not a decent opener for a survival horror. The acting was good, but that's where the good things end. The characters are unlikable and when the horror starts, you can't feel bad for them because they have made so many dumb decisions. Of course no one had a mobile phone, of course one of the characters had to make a completely unrealistic and stupid jump, when all he had to was climb up on to the ski wires and make his way to the chair furthest below. The female characters got frostbite but it never occurred to her that she should zip her jacket up the whole way or put her other hand in her pocket or jumper. The wolves were a complete unnecessary addition and the whole film goes from being a survival thriller on a chairlift at a ski resort to an animal horror movie.

From all the crappy horror movies I've seen this is the first one I actually enjoyed but not in the intended way . First of all the characters were laughably shitty and made me burst out laughing almost every scene . Secondly it never felt as if the deaths were anything but the characters being completely brain dead . And lastly the wolfs . These wolfs are some of the cutest dogs I've ever seen . If anything a friend of mine has a tiny doggy that's scarier than these wolfs . But surprisingly it was very lovely seeing the wolfs giving kisses and it added to the ironic entertainment since they added shitty effects to make it seem like they were killing the characters while in reality the worse they did was slightly bite their clothes . In conclusion, only watch this movie as an ironic comedy
