Backcountry (2015)

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

If a bear is stalking you and you are in your tent (and you have bear spray with you) why would you close up the tent as it approaches so that if it comes thru the tent and you need to use the bear spray everyone gets a full blast of pepper spray in the enclosed tent? "Lets wait until the bear comes inside our tent before we use the spray, cuz that'll work!". That's what this character does and it just ruins the building suspense. Theres such tension building, and then that happens and you think to yourself "oh come on!!!". They didn't even have the bear spray in hand when they knew the bear was just outside! You wait until the bear tears thru the zippered up tent to look for the bear spray? Instead of blasting it thru the opening as it's coming towards the tent, he zips the tent up so that if the pepper spray is used, everyone is getting it. After using it once the woman drops it and can't find it, while her boyfriend gets dragged outside and destroyed. Who would stay inside while a loved one is being attacked when you have bear spray? Just very hard to believe that people would behave that way (unless they really are that stupid- then they'd both deserve to be eaten). That scene just totally ruined a decent build up until that point.

This movie I swear after the guy gets killed. It became so stupid. The guy knew there was a bear. You don't leave a weapon out of reach when you know the bear is nearby. You use the spray as soon as the bear enters the tent not after he starts feasting on your boyfriend. This would have been better if they fought the bear. You take the sleeping bag and shove it in the bears face. When a bear drags your boyfriend out. You run and start stabbing it. You don't wait till it's enjoying your boyfriend. this movie pissed me off so much. No wonder the Revanent was so much better! There's too many scenes that drag on and just the camera just stays focus on the characters faces. You don't continue a hike when your injure your foot. A tour guide that's knows the area should have known about the bear and gave them weapons or should have said if your not back here at a certain day I'm coming to find you guys. Sorry it had a good plot, but the stupidity in the characters just made me hate this movie!

This is how you make good horror. Character driven, good acting, rising tension, limited but devastating violence. 6.0 average? Horror fans are dumb.

She's a pretty girl :) The movie was good. But the last 1/4 seemed rushed in the writing idk could have been a little better in the last 1/4 from when they got attacked to the end was a 5star and the first 3/4 was a 7star
