    We may take the family to see it.

    I was excited until in the preview I saw that he actually taped broken airline liquor bottles to his hands like knuckledusters to fight the wolves. Seriously.

    Any advantage you can get is a good one.

    I just got back from watching the movie, on a scale of one to ten, I give it a five. No need to see it in the theater, a decent rental. Not a survival movie in the sense of survival skills. A bit of a let down.

    Default The Grey

    Saw this movie last night, should have been called "the lame". For those that haven't seen it, I won't divulge any details, however I will say that the only things missing were Little Red Riding Hood and the Three Little Pigs.

    Default The movie "The Grey"

    My wife and I went to see the movie "The Grey" I am glad we went to see it. But I an not interested in buying it.

    If anyone is going to see it. A small part of the movie is after ALL the credits are shown. You think the movie is over but it isn't.

    We got up to leave and another man that came in late told everyone that the movie isn't over. Apparently he had left on an earlier showing when everyone else did then then came back in to see the VERY ending.

    Short synopsis
    Several men are trying to survive in the Far North. The film is based on the short story "Ghost Walker" by Ian MacKenzie Jeffers.

    My take: entertaining drivel. I can tell that they really tried, apart from the ridiculous premise, and suspended disbelief enough to enjoy it. I wouldn't likely enjoy it a second time.
