Man Vs.

Definitely a cross between Bear Grylls and Predator, but you could probably make that conclusion from the synopsis alone. I was definitely into the movie until the CGI. There is a good chance that I would have been more satisfied with traditional effects like makeup, prosthetics, a mask, or just a guy in a suit.

It may seem a little bit of a copycat movie version of a certain TV series that others have mentioned in previous reviews, and yes, the theory is similar and that's where it really works. Viewers love the outdoor reality shows on TV these days and this movie takes the survival reality, to the next level. I can't say much about the plot but it will play out a little bit "obviously" throughout the movie, but don't let that turn you off, it has plenty of mystery and intrigue to keep the viewer switched on... just enjoy, as its a pretty entertaining movie..Chris Diamantopoulos was excellent in the role and upon doing a bit more research on him, as I hadn't heard of him before, I was surprised to find he hasn't had many lead character movie roles at all...a pity as would like to see him cast in a few more movies.

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

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..

I thought the basic concept of Mr TV Survivalist out in the woods facing something unknown was effective. The main actor was believable and surprisingly watchable,he pretty much carries the movie and I loved the Tom Hanks Easter eggs. The reveal would have been a lot more effective practically done and in the dark,I did find the epilogue also effective. A good effort hampered by budget,had a few terrific little scenes,and the script,concept and lead were all rather good.
