This is not a horror movie, though at times it resembles one: Darkened woods, coarse locals, rusty things, wolves (possibly), a lack of cell service, plenty of bickering, dwindling food.

The scenery is lovely until it is not and turns on the barely likable protagonists. I spent much of the movie stressing over their choices, concepts of charity, and, interestingly, their ignorance. Sometimes you want to applaud the effort they put into providing aid to those who need it, but more often you scoff when they remark about iPads or sodomy or test-driving a Range Rover.

Or when you realize that the bags of supplies they are handing out are unnecessarily difficult to open.

I liked it. It was grating, though, and now that it made its points I don't think I'd watch it again. But still recommended.

A poorly written movie that is, ultimately, a road to nowhere. The rave reviews from some critics are obviously praising the movie simply because of where it was made.

Waste of time and gas of not so bad actors...what a pity to waste resources of an already suffering terminal disease of the state owned system of producing ....kind of movies...sad!

Well-acted and intelligent, but viewing liable to cause abject depression. I am a mild-mannered person, however I found myself actually shouting at the screen for the old man in the story to shut up and go away. I was thankful, if irritated, that so much of the film was shot in impenetrable darkness. I am not sure that quality of darkness was intentional, but one watches a black screen for much of the seemingly endless 104 minutes. There must be other ways to convey such a story without alienating the viewer quite so fiercely. One felt bludgeoned by the argumentative and frustrated characters, who are largely unsympathetic, and should not be. This is a film, I believe, about backwardness and thwarted humanitarian intentions - a pertinent and timely issue. It's a pity to feel so indifferent and aggravated at the - slightly empty - end of such a film.

I rolled over my eyes several times. If you have an off-road car for some years, you are prepared for the mountain. The guy looks like he has experience but makes some mistakes like a novice who was in the mountains the first time with his off-road vehicle. It ruined the atmosphere.
