I really didn't feel like it was that bleak, at least not in comparison to The Grey (which I've noticed it getting compared to). The only thing they really have in common is snow. After reading about the book I really wish they would've just done a straight-forward adaptation, which has a lot more to say imo about life and the human condition than the movie we got. But it's still a gorgeously shot film and it's worth seeing for the bear scene alone.

Sir Kodiak posted:Well, Lil Mama, I'm sorry, but I'm just reporting what the reviews I've seen say. I appreciate your direct impression, though. I didn't mean to direct my post at you if that's how it came off, dear Sir, Kodiak. It's not that the movie isn't bleak necessarily, it's moreso to me that that time period and geography were bleak in general, but the themes and plot line of the movie didn't come off as bleak to me as something like The Grey. If this makes any sense?
