The Grey
The Grey
Following a grueling five-week shift at an Alaskan oil refinery, workers led by sharpshooter John Ottway are flying home for a much-needed vacation. But a brutal storm causes their plane to crash in the frozen wilderness, and only eight men, including Ottway, survive. As they trek southward toward civilization and safety, Ottway and his companions must battle mortal injuries, the icy elements, and a pack of hungry wolves.

Solid performances (esp. Neeson), emotional and really up there with the best of the man vs wild survival horror films. So many men undertake such dangerous work in such isolated parts of the world. The film really grants an insight into how brutal this lifestyle is and yet how beneath the dysfunctional machoism and bar brawls, the real strength of manhood is that resilient determination to survive adversity.
