Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

GamerTab That was an excellent one.

SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Kimberly I've actually been waiting a long time to see this movie, as strange as that sounds. I was going to watch it a few years ago on TV, but wasn't able to and I've been keeping an eye out for it in the listings ever since. The story sounded good and Shannen Doherty has made some good TV movies. This is one of them. I thought the story was solid. It was simple and easy to follow.At the beginning of the movie, we really get a sense of the struggles this family is going through. The husband, Keith, is doing his best to find work, but there's not much out there for him. Money problems are only one reason the marriage is falling apart and CeeCee, the wife, decides to leave Keith, and move away in order to start a new life with a stable job. I liked the way they developed her character. She wasn't selfish and shallow by staying with the husband just because he won the lottery. He convinced her that their marriage deserved another chance and that having money would just give them options for the future.The couple and their son Eric travel to Denver to claim the prize money. Keith is a pilot and he borrows a plane from the charter company he works for. He makes the mistake of showing his boss the ticket before leaving, giving her just enough time to sabotage the plane - draining the fuel tank, cutting off the radio and removing most of the survival pack. The plane crashes miles away from civilization on a snowy mountain and the family has to do whatever it takes to survive and elude the people who are hot on their trail after the ticket.I enjoyed this movie immensely. I felt it was very well-written and executed. There were no parts I felt were unbelievable or implausible. One of the comments on this movie talk about a plot hole. There was no such plot hole. The family didn't make false tracks because they had to get someplace where they'd be found. Misleading Rita and Chuck, the ones who rigged the plane to crash, would only waste time and energy. The family did exactly what anyone in the same situation would do. The many obstacles they had to overcome showed their ingenuity and strong will to survive. This is a great flick for a late night. You'll be rooting for the good guys and you won't be able to guess what's coming next.

Kerryanne Jacobsen Okezie Starring: Shannen Doherty I watched this movie because Grandma loves to watch anything with Shannen in it. We laughed all the way through because the plot was so predictable and evil Rita screaming at her husband (or partner) was definitely one of the more memorable scenes, in typical Western (woman) style she insists on dominating him throughout the movie and humiliates and badgers him into agreeing to help her kill for the lottery ticket. Yes, Rita's has her weak lover wrapped around her greedy little finger.Seen better movies but this movie did entertain us on an otherwise quiet evening. Grandma nearly choked when she heard Rita screech at Hank - or whatever the poor chaps name is.Shannen Doherty was fun to watch and looked so unreal as the mother of this near-teenager. However, her acting skills made up for the obviously ill-considered age gap. Shannen is a true actor and this movie as are her others - really show how talented this lady is. Having said that, if it wasn't for Shannen holding the plot together I may have fallen asleep. Apart from Doherty's pukka acting skills, I 'd give the movie a feeble 5 out of 10.

mefolkes It is unlikely that anyone with any common sense would build a fire in the middle of a wood floor. At least one of the buildings in the weather station at Fire Creek should have had a fireplace or stove. There were enough furnishings and clothes left behind that it is unlikely that a stove would have been removed. Then we have the problem of the lottery ticket itself. All the winner would have to do would be to fill in the winner's information, including signature, in ink, and the ticket would no longer be a "bearer" instrument that would be useful to thieves. We also see a strange near-drowning when the son plops himself face forward into the creek while trying to get water and doesn't struggle a bit. Of course, all of this is forgotten when the viewer is exposed to the shrill and wooden acting of Heidi Swedberg, the actress portraying the lead villain. Her acting was so bad that I even forgot that she is a beautiful woman.

bob the moo Keith is a pilot who has seen his work dry up, adding money worries to his already crumbling marriage. With no hope of things changing, his wife CeeCee decides to take their son and leave Keith behind. On the very night she kicks him out though, his lottery numbers come up and the couple win $23million dollars. CeeCee isn't convinced that the money will make any difference in their relationship but agrees to fly to Denver to claim the prize. However their plane is sabotaged by Keith's employers and they crash in the middle of the woods; survival in the cold is their first concern but very quickly it is evident that the saboteurs are coming after them for that winning ticket.Despite the film having interesting elements, nothing really comes of them and the end result is a film that doesn't really do anything that well. The narrative starts with unlikely jumps that don't convince and it pretty much continues from there when it becomes a chase in the wilderness movie. Sadly, "chase" is not the right word because it implies action and pace, things that the film has neither of. The action is very slow and didn't engage me at all; for the majority of the film the Reicker family are walking away while their pursers squabble and slowly follow them – the plight of neither is tense and the brief moments of action only manage to feel cheap and obvious. The plot had the potential to draw drama from the relationship between Keith and CeeCee but this starts badly and is never used well once – the fact that it ends just the way you expect it to just makes it worse.The cast are not much better although there are no bad performances per se – just average ones. Doherty is just giving the usual nondescript performance that she churns out in so many TV movies and didn't convince me as a broken wife, reinvigorated lover, action heroine or mother. Marshall is average and is far too bland to lead a movie like this, especially when the material is as weak as this. Van Dyke isn't really annoying which, for a child actor in this sort of thing, is about as close to praise as I can get. Swedberg is best known for Sienfeld and long may it stay that way; she grows increasing manic throughout the film and lacks any form of subtly. Tench is OK but maybe that is only because he is alongside her in most of his scenes.Overall this is not a terrible movie but it is poor and so unremarkably bland that I doubt it will garner many new viewers (or screenings) a few years from now. The action lacks any sort of tension or pace and feels cheaply done; the cast are average at best and the script fails to develop the action or the character relationships. Pointless, plodding and pretty p*ss poor.
