When a truck crashes inside a tunnel, people on their way home for Christmas are brutally trapped in a deadly fire. With a blizzard raging outside, and the first responders struggling to get to the accident, it's every man for himself.
- Watch ManzFebruary 24, 2025This is a decent disaster movie. There's less explosions and the like than you see with an American movie, and it's more of a story about bravery and family, which I found quite refreshing. The ending was a little bit of a cliche but that's to be expected. Having to read subtitles distracted from the movie a bit for me, but non-English speakers do that for our movies, so it's fair. All-in-all, a good movie and I really enjoyed it.
- ZokkiieApril 4, 2026It’s a tense ride in parts, and the leads do a decent job keeping things grounded, though some of the dialogue feels a bit forced. The visuals and setting create a claustrophobic vibe that works, but a few moments try too hard to shock and end up feeling predictable. Not bad overall, but it doesn’t fully stick with you once it’s over.
