Good start, but then it gets ruined

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

The only reason I gave a three was of the Alaskin beauty. The lead female actor was terrible. The plot held no real adventure. The story line left you wanting. that's 2 hours of my life I can't get back. The mistake made here was for the female actor to assume everyone understood her pain without her ever saying a word. And yet she go from place to place bumming her way back home. Realistically she would of found a better way to handle it. I hope you got more out of this film than I did and enjoyed it Sadly this film was greatly exaggerated as far as the amount of stars. Who was watching this rating it that high? little old ladies?

Not only does this film (through its actors and director) tackle a difficult subject with sensitivity and a realistic touch, but its portrayal of a trip to Alaska is spot on. Having lived and traveled there for several years I think the film captures the sights, travel and exploring the Great Land in an equally honest and straightforward way.The actors neither overplay their roles nor sleep through their performances. Not a Hollywood blockbuster and not filmed with a blockbuster budget. And maybe that's why this film succeeds on several levels.Well done.

This is a story on the difficult topic of molesting, but it's also inspiring as it depicts the healing power of nature on two wounded souls. Ella Purnell has the showier part as the young girl who is abandoned and victimized, but it's the wonderful Bruce Greenwood, who embodies decency and dignity and provides the emotional center of the movie. You wish you knew this character.The Alaskan images are beyond beautiful, and healing for the viewer as well. First time director Frank Hall Green showed the movie and dozens of festivals, garnering so many awards and accolades that it won theatrical and on-demand release. There is some plot involving texting so see it on the biggest screen you can.A movie that hits you and makes you think. And more Bruce Greenwood movies, please!

I liked the film- thoughtful, visually engrossing, and deft in the complicated unraveling of the protagonist's story with a sensitivity that conveys a genuine understanding of humanity's harsher realities. Greenwood and Purnell delivered in what I'd have to call the redemption of all things good in humanity in an environment that doesn't nurture such things. Inspiring. Good storytelling here is the reason. Dealing with subject matter as potentially volatile and devastating as this can be without losing sight of the story is a very good summation of Frank Hall Green's skill as a filmmaker. I wouldn't be surprised if WILDLIKE became something of a benchmark film for a number of organizations who provide services and support for victims. This isn't a story of victimization however- it's the story of resilience and how even the simplest of gestures can result in profound hope and recovery. Highly recommend!
