Do not listen to people who didn't even get the facts right. This is not a Search & Rescue movie, and the lead isn't just a hiker. It's not about if the wind looks right or if some snow seems fake. It is about a strange encounter and about human reactions to each other. It's about how humans can change each other's lives. It's very powerful in this way.
Take Swedish film of 2003. Take away Bergman, Moodysson, Jarl...
You're left with people bitching and puking, filmed with no concept and no direction.
Camera wandering aimlessly, 75% of it shaky close-ups. Dialogue obviously badly improvised.
Obscenities.
Good idea wasted.
I'm sure the actors had a wonderful experience, though.
If you're in for mentally exhausting experience of people quarreling - have a go. Others: beware!

This is one of the worst directed & executed films I've seen for years and years. It's all made by the "lets jerk around with the camera and cut & paste later"-method. Not ONCE did the director seem to consider a possibility to chose a way of presenting a certain scene to it's best advantage - it's all "filmed" by a guy jumping around in sneakers with a camera at half-distance. He even forgot to cut & paste, for the most part. And no, it does not make you feel you're there - it makes you feel sick.
It's shame films are still being made using this gimmick, before it will be abandoned. And yes, it's important, because if the technique of the delivery draws more attention than the message you wish to deliver - you've failed.
A great subject-matter wasted. 2/10.
