Courage

You will absolutely enjoy this film in the comfort of your own home

The movie was okay. I just finished watching it on the movie network. Jason Priestly (Robert) is an important figure in the movie, and plays a father role who just finished writing a novel. Priestly doesn't really do much acting in this role, it is mainly done by his wife who is the one who really shows the courage in this movie. His wife played by Andrea Roth(Teresa), also the stepmother of his daughter. His daughter is played by Genenvieve Buchner (Megan). It starts off pretty well with an opening scene of future events to come and how they get caught in a big storm on their family boat. The movie portrays how a modern family overcomes their differences and work together to survive difficult situations. The acting overall isn't really that great but not bad for a made for t.v. movie. It does keep you interested as to what is going to happen next. I would say it's movie that you can watch with the family, especially if you have a teenager's who give you a hard time. They may learn to appreciate you more if you were in this situation as this family was. Also, a good one for those struggling step mothers who have a hard time bonding with their step children.

On a side note they state on the movie network that their is some nudity in it. Well let me just let you know, that no nudity occurred.

Poorly written, directed predictable story with wooden acting except or Andrea Roth.

Widowed man (Priestley) with his second wife (Roth) and daughter from his first marriage take a boat ride and get into a storm, which destroys the craft and puts them in the wilderness for a few days. Bear chases them; second wife turns into survivalist capable of doing just about anything. Bratty daughter learns some lessons in how to behave. It's been done before and better. The film is not terrible, but it's not all that great. The acting is mediocre, writing is mediocre, scenery is beautiful, bear is scary. I'm still trying to figure out how the woman and guy's daughter manage to find heavy weight hiking boots to traipse through the woods after the boat crash. Who wears heavy-duty leather hiking boots on a boat ride? Perhaps this is explained somewhere and I just nodded off at the time.

The best actor is the bear, the storm scene is so bad special effects it's laughable
