Featured reviews
This was a well made movie with lots of realistic thrilling moments, good acting from Michael Biehn and Roy Schnieder, and the snowboarding scenes were amazing. The plot was original and classic at the same time. (You'd have to see it to fully understand). Of course I can't possibly leave out the wolf who was "Silver" in the film. "Silver" was the most dignified looking creature I've ever seen and it was fun watching it. Great flick!
I particularly loathe michael biehn for the obvious reasons, he's always a smart mouthed cocky jerk, a role he has perfected from birth and i've yet to see deviate from... other than that it was a decent film..
Here is the lowdown. A boy loses his father, and he goes to live with his uncle in a national park. Then he meets a wolf named "Silver". Unfortunately, he has to protect the wolf from a dangerous hunter.
Yeah, we've seen this before. In two embarrassing little kids movies, no less. Still, Shane Meier is such a great actor. He plays the main character so well. He also has great chemistry with Silver. I wish he was doing more projects, but apparently he's selling jeans in Vancouver. The other actors are really good as well.
Not a bad concept, and the acting makes the movie better than you'd expect.

Well, this is an AWEsome movie.Bein plays a pretty good part as the uncle and "Jesse" was pretty good too.Ecspecially at the snowboarding(if that was really him).But my absolute fav character of the whole entire show was the guy in the crowd at the end of the race scene.He's wearing a blue jacket and grey pants.He is over to the right and four people back.NO No no I was just joking.My fav character was, of course "SILVER".He was totally FANTASTIC.But that also may account because of my love for wolves and dogs.Especially WOLVES.
Roy Scheider gives the WORST performance of his career in this utterly stupid excuse for a nature flick. It doesn't help that the young man in the lead is completely inept as an actor. There really is no script other than good versus evil. There is some strikingly magnificent photography of the Canadian Rockies. That's about it for the plus column.
