LastingAware The greatest movie ever!

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

billcr12 A tale of survival, The Snow Walker is the story of a Canadian hot shot pilot who flies a single engine prop plane into the Canadian wilderness near Manitoba on a regular basis. One day, Charlie drops off some drums at a remote area where he meets some Inuit Eskimoes who give him a pair of valuable ivory tusks as trade in order to have him take back a young woman to a hospital, as she is coughing up blood and may have tuberculosis. He reluctantly agrees, and while on the journey, the plane breaks down and they crash land in the middle of nowhere. He jumps up and down, cursing their dilemma, while the Eskimo girl calmly uses a piece of string to catch fish. Her outdoor skills are formidable, and he soon realizes that she is much better then he is in the great outdoors. They walk a long way and eventually he decides it would be better to return to the plane to await a rescue. They set up camp and most of the film shows the two learning to communicate and teaching each other their very uncommon cultures. The scenery is beautiful, and the young actress a natural, which makes The Snow Walker a trip worth taking.

dannmissy How interesting, I was waiting for Michael Buble to start bursting out in song. I did not know that he was ever in a movie from before he became famous. Anyways, remember the part in Castaway when 'Wilson' drifts away and you feel a burst of emotion for Hanks. I felt the same burst of emotion, a happy emotion, rather, when Happy try's out his new watertight pelt boots and the joy he feels by jumping around. I do not think you can compare a movie like Dances with Wolves and The Snow Walker, nonetheless, I love this movie! For some reason, I cannot figure out why I love this movie so much. It is missing the amazing John Barry soundtrack and multi-million dollar cast and crew benefits. There are just some movies were you feel like you can put yourself into a role. I wonder what I would do if I were in Charlie's position. Would I survive a year, a month, a day? Just a wonderful movie!!!

ClericOni I must say I am very surprised that this movie wasn't released in the theaters. This movie deserves an Oscar. It truly does. The acting is very realistic, there isn't a single scene that ruins the storyline, and the psychology of the characters are well reflected. I am shocked to see that Annabella Piugattuk hasn't done other movies even though she is an amazing actress. Her acting can truly make many of the so called actresses in the industry blush in shame. I wasn't sure how it was going to be at first but right after I watched this beautiful movie, I was filled with emotions. In today's movie world, we rarely get movies this touching and beautiful. Please don't think this is one of those Lifetime love story, or Hallmark religious movies. It's none of that. It's not just a boring movie filled with beautiful scenery either. It's a survival, adventure, and action movie filled with friendship, self discovery, love and emotion. If you're watching this movie expecting Hostel, or Conan The Barbarian with blood and guts flying all over the place, then this isn't for you. But that doesn't mean the movie has no action. No matter what type of movie you like, I can't recommend this movie enough. You owe it to yourself to see it at least once. I'm sure you won't regret it.

Samiam3 Although Canada is a tenth the population our our neighbours, we have just as many talented novelists. Among the names who have sold internationally are:, Margret Atwood, Robertson Davies, Mordecai Ritchler, and also Farely Mowat. Mowat takes us into the coldest parts of the country where he gives us the most heartwarming stories. This is one. Although I have not read this particular book, I can honestly say that the Snow Walker is among the most heartbreaking of Canadian movies.Charlie Halliday is a young pilot in the Canadian Northwest Territories, who is about to endure a life changing experience. It all begins when he takes on a young Inuit girl as a passenger at the plea of her family. He was just doing a test flight and happened to set the plane down just a few feet from their camp. They want him to take her to Yellowknife (the capitol of the Northwest territories) because she is very sick. He agrees to do so, but they don get very far. In mid air, the engine blows and the planes goes down, down down, and crashes in the middle of the vast empty tundra. Well it doesn't crash, he manages to land it, barely. With only a handful of supplies and a heck of a long walk, the two must fight to survive the coming elements.The Snow Walker is Kurosawa, meets Atanarjuat, meets Dances with Wolves, meets several others, but you get the point. It is emotionally epic and visually stunning. If you are smart and resourceful, you don't need a big budget to make a visually stunning motion picture, Nature itself is your big budget. Just set up a camera, on a hill, wait until the sun is in the right position and start shooting, and you can have a real epic sunset rather than a CG one. It is more challenging, but no pain no gain, all the best movies are the result of hard physical labor. Although there are a few moments that I would have cut out if I were editing this movie, I don't think there is a single bad scene in the Snow Walker. There is not a bad performance, nor is there a bad shot in the movie. It is beautiful and epic, and it is shameful that Canadian films like Snow Walker are not even screened in Canadian theatres let alone the rest of the world.
