Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Absolutely wonderful! One of the best movies I have seen in years.Let's face it most movies these days don't even try and 80 percent are horror stories about vampires and werewolves.This movie reminds us of what family means. Touches on a bond between brothers, growing up, responsibilities and survival skills. Topping it all off with the breathtaking beauty of the wilderness. Beautiful shots of the Rockies.I especially love Tyler Labine since I saw him in this, Best Man Down, and Someone Marry Barry.I think if you go into this movie with an open mind, not paying attention to reviews - either good or bad, you will be pleased you took the time to watch.
Mountain Men (2016) is unfunny and predictable to the point of boringness. This film is so insubstantial that it is hard to talk about. Nothing here is worthy of conversation really. The same exact plot line has been done countless times. There were no moments of suspense or doubt, as every single thing could be seen from a mile away. Both the acting and directing are passable, but the film suffers tremendously from being too cliché. The message that is trying to be portrayed is not only extremely obvious but it is repeatedly shoved down your throat. The consistently flat jokes never seem to get any funnier or even better. 'Mountian Men' is hardly entertaining and is not worth the time spent watching it.
Bought this on Netflix and pleased we did. Well chosen cast played things naturally which, with the restrained unflashy directing, made great use of the atmosphere and amazing location.Chace Crawford and especially Tyler Lebine do an excellent job of carrying the movie, which is 90% a two hander.It has some laugh out loud moments which I won't spoil and a nice set up and exploration of family tension. Overall a good movie and one I would recommend. It also does the Canadian tourist industry no harm, as we want to visit now!
Watched this on the plane ride back from Toronto. What a surprise! Unique plot, great acting and awesome scenery! Wasn't sure if it would keep me awake on the flight or not, but it sure did (which was a good thing!). Although the plane rated it as comedy/drama, I would have to disagree... drama all the way. Thank goodness for Canadian content! The two main actors did a great job. They remind me of two famous Hollywood actors, I'm sure you'll know who I mean... I mainly came to IMDb to see who the actors were and where it was filmed, but then decided that this film needed another review! I will be sure to watch more of the Canadian films when on my next flight. I encourage you to do the same.
