Man Vs.

A low budget but enjoyable film, there are some errors but nothing that would stop you watching it.

... but it is a pretty decent movie.

Obviously, the budget for it was minimal. But a decent direction, good script and nice acting conspired to make "Man Vs." into a very entertaining survival film with some sci-fi elements.

The location, main actor are perfectly chosen. The story moves at a good pace, we are kept guessing (as intended by the director) and the conclusion was also interesting.

It is a lesson on how to make quality work with little money.

It is much better than I expected.

Give it a try

A pleasant surprise. I did not have lot of expectations from this movie but yet another Canadian surprise. The movie starts out of the jungle but catches up with the theme very soon. As always the case, the main attraction arrives late. Still there is some tension which keeps the movie going and if you're anything like me, you will enjoy the jungle survival shown even though we have seen it in documentaries a lot. The direction is good and the acting could have been a little better but still the main guy have done a good job. The CGI..well.. are OK, not a lot of them but the rabbit scene will make it up for that. Overall, not the worst i have seen. I enjoyed it As i said, not sure what to watch..give this movie a try..

In a nod to self-filmed survival shows, a TV host is dropped in the remote Canadian wilderness to film himself for 5 days and then get picked up by his production team. Things start to go wrong, and he is convinced someone or something is messing with him. There are a few actual survival tips given in the early parts of the film.

It's probably best not to know too much about what's going on before you've seen it. Thanks to a largely one-man performance by the underrated Chris Diamantopoulos, this film has a believability that another actor wouldn't have been able to carry off alone (imagine going from playing Moe in the three stooges movie to this - amazing).

I was a little puzzled that the image on the poster appeared no place in the film. It was one of the reasons i picked the movie.

Add 1 part predator (original) Add 1 part District 9 Add 1 part Bear Grills Omit half the budget and put it on the rocks

Tries to be the original Predator but is actually better than the Predator reboot.
