    You will be tired, exausted and worn out after making this long journey with this cast. A very real movie about strong people meeting the test of all nature has to throw at them.

    Not one of the better "survival" movies, but still worthy of a watch. It's just not a movie I'm bound to remember. Touching, true stories like this have been done better. "Defiance" & "Alive (2010)" come to mind.

    A long journey! A long movie, but every minute was enjoyed. A quality production all around. The quality is probably a result of the fact that it wasn't made in Hollywood.
