Winter Ridge: Eiskalte Jagd

Formulaic tripe. Skip it. It's a ridiculous amount of conventional stereotypes that make zero sense.

Oh my. I never really like to be negative, but this was bad. I did almost watch until the end, but it was a slow build up to a predictable conclusion and so i just switched it off.

The acting was almost embarrassing, had it not been for a couple of bit parts who I felt sorry for as I had no idea why they had let themselves be part of the production. I was constantly waiting for the film to pick up and the slow, drama-class wooden acting, with too long pauses in the script did not help. Maybe it was the direction.

It reminded me of a tense crime drama on the television, but without any sense of tension or drama and the crime was pretty weak in its portrayal.

I just feel bad for those involved.

So kinda boring and dull all through, started with suspense but gets so boring in the middle

This is a cheaply-filmed movie that is competently written and directed. The plot keeps you watching but the execution leaves you wanting. You need actors who can elicit empathy from the viewer; there is little of that here. Simply put, the lead actors lack the charisma needed to involve us in an otherwise serviceable film. Worth a watch as long as your expectations are held in check. Enjoy the scenery; it's the true star of this middling venture.

Even better than Le Tour or a BBC Documentary if you want to get a good nap.
