This is a survival story with only two real cast members. Don't expect many lines from either of them. You see what happens to people in times like that. At any moment they could have died from just the cold alone. Not to mention the polar bear or arctic storms. Very interesting!!!
This review is from Arctic [DVD] [2018]

He was saying about how much this project meant for him, he’s been writing and working on it for a while and never had the chance to take off with it. He’s finally finished the product and it shows how much passion this was put in it. I really don’t want to talk about the story because there isn’t really much to talk about, just a man trying to survive. That man being Mads Milkelson (sorry if I butchered his name) he is just wonderful and carries the whole film of coarse. Great movie, great actor! Don’t be expecting any action sequences or nothing crazy.

I enjoyed the movie but it could have been better if the woman could have showed a little more grateful realistic appreciation for all that her rescue person was going through to save her. A little more love

This movie had potential, but never quite measured upto the height it promissed.
My disappointment is not so much for the acting, which was solid, but for the plodding script. Worse, the director tried to be cute by providing an ending that not only fell flat, but was a frustrating conclusion to a survival frama that deserved an answer.
Did they survive or didn't they? This movie tries to play it cute by leaving the viewer wondering. It didn't work for me. I was not at all satisfied.
So, save your money and wait for it to come out on cable.

this is very good. the tale of a man trying to survive the brutal cold. but it isn't for everyone. there is very little dialogue in this. so if that isn't your kind of thing, beware.

Interesting start where his plane crash has already happened, then he rescues another crash victim. Nature makes it a grueling story.

It was a good survival movie. Wish the ending was a bit more clear. It is up there with Tom Hanks in Cast Away

I am so buying Polar if I can, coz full on Mads butt. drool
But this is brilliant acting and scenery. I thought I was literally freezing in the movie theater. Really.
Not a lot of dialogue, but it doesn't need it. It's beautifully done.
Must see.
But bring the hot cocoa and fuzzy blankies.

I will watch this again, but it was a bit slow which I am sure is by design due to the nature of the movie.

It was a pretty good movie. A little slow at first and the ending could of been better.
