The Grey

Ratings: 7.7/10
Film Class: B
Genre: Suspense Drama

Told myself I wouldn't miss any of the recent Liam Neeson movie and I didn't! The Grey is about the survivors of seven oil workers in a plane crash in Alaska. Braving the freezing weather to seek help isn't their greatest worry... a merciless pack of wolves has their eyes on the helpless seven...

I shan't spend too much time telling you how cool Liam Neeson is because it seems that all his recent movies lands him a very "zai" character. This time round, he's an expert in wolf hunting. However, no matter how pro he is at that, there's no way he's can win a whole pack of them without his rifle.

*spoilers alert* Judging from the way the story progressed, I can't help but assume that everyone would die at the end... because the numbers of the survivors just kept decreasing... depressingly. Suddenly all hope of surviving veered towards 0% because you know it's a numbers game. Did I think wrong? Well, guess you've to find out yourself.

However, while the story development was intensively engaging, the ending was quite a cliffhanger. Still, not to fret, there's an after credits scene which makes the cliffhanger less... hanging. So do remember to stay on during the credits.

The sypnosis of the movie is fairly comprehensive enough, the only bits that were left out was the story behind the characters, especially the main lead, Liam Neeson. Don't expect twists in plots or a strong story, what you would expect is a few seat jumps (due to the sudden ambush) and the occasional adrenaline pumping. With that expectation in mind, bruce yourself for Men vs Wolves!
