this is a decent film, basic plot but liam and his character make it great. recommended

I normally don't write reviews but this film was the best !!

A great character driven piece of work. Beautifully shot and well executed. Great support from the other cast. Liam as always on form as the moody, hurt Irish…no…Ulsterman! Solid viewing.

This film was awesome. Liam Neeson was great & it makes you thankful for what you have in life & to make you realise that any day could be your last so you should make the most of every day. Really hard hitting & well thought out.

The idea behind the movie is creative and unique. I just hated the way it ended, and the general vibe throughout.

A great film! Tonnes of action in a realistic way. A great story behind the main story line. Liam Neeson does a great job and brings the film together.

One of Liam's best films, good story line, some people are a bit stupid sometimes but I think if you were in that situation would you be able to think straight.

The end was disappointing basically you see Liam get ready for an epic showdown with the Alpha wolf the he shouts!!

And it ends? Guys seriously ??

Where is the subtitles? What if some deaf who really need subtitles cos there have a 'closed captioning' because the video setting set up switch "on" but 'The Grey' film no sign of subtitles! Not work! So why they should paid for...

Need a sort it as soon as possible. Thank you.

Oh Liam your such a good actor but this film is rubbish. If you want to waste a tenner and an hour and ten minutes of your time then buy it. A story about killer wolves and the most ridiculous ending ever.

Not as good as Taken or Schindler's List, but neither should it be compared to his previous films.

The character Neeson plays is as deep as in any of his films and the film itself plays out nicely as the band of survivors reveal more depth to their characters as the film progresses.

Yes, it's predictable, but as with nearly all of Neeson's characters you can't help but want and urge Neeson to be victorious in the end (he has an unlucky looking and well worn face which I think makes him likeable).

People who say it's boring, I think, are either feeling the anti-climax after the early plane crash (which really is well filmed), or they're not feeling the whole 'mood' of the film - the film is seen through the eyes of Neeson, (who is suicidal early on in the film, and thoughtful the remainder) versus some savage predator, but which he has a large degree of respect for.

Not a 5 star film, but definitely worth a look - even just for Neeson's role.

i'm sorry liam not your best, very poor ending i waited for the release day and got that never mind eh i'm just happy i did not buy it,

Average to begin with, but gets painfully boring at about half way, and then remains so.

This film is amazing and gripping from start to finish, anyone who has a dig about the ending clearly has no brain cells Because.

Spoiler: At the end, people are moaning about how the wolf waited for him kit up with the knife and bottles. Maybe wolfs do just run and pounce on there prey, I don't know I am not a wolf expert but frankly It doesn't matter. The whole reason was so It adds more drama to the scene, laying down the wallets as respect for the people that died, plus for him (Liam Neeson) to avenge them by fighting the Alfa. As for him getting the knife and bottles out it leaves you guessing who's going to win because it now an even fight. Also if you watched after the credits then its up to you to decide the winner.

Amazing ending with a huge cliffhanger!

It's an ok film not the greatest but worth a watch. 👍👍👍

Great film, loved it

Of all the Liam Neeson films I have watched this is the worst. After the first 20 mins it's starts to get boring. However it did get better towards the end for the ending scene although soured by the poor cliff hanger ending. don't get me wrong the film is worth watching but don't watch if your an impatient action thrill type because there is a lot of dialog scenes. I would give this film 7/10 maybe 6 but it scrapes a 7. Don't mean to offend!

Not to bad, watchable

This has got to be the most disappointing movie I have seen in a long time. Especially given Neeson has produced some very entertaining (if not overly artistic) movies recently. The main problem is that few of the characters are likeable, apart from Neesons, and those that are, die before the story gets going.

Add a few 'things can't get any worse……oh yes they can' moments and you are soon at the very disappointing ending (possibly even worse than Abduction, if you have seen that?).

Contrary to other reviews, i would say that fast forwarding to the end of the credits offers very little, you will still be disappointed.

Give it a miss.

Passable start quickly descending into unrelenting nonsense.

It was a great story. I liked it so much.

All the hallmarks of a great neeson film however ending is poor !!!!! Disappointing !!

A surprising film with both action and an emotional depth I was not expecting. The film had me gripped from the very beginning. And the ending, perfect.

Great film. Good acting and an interesting blend of action/thrill moments with more moving and thought-provoking themes. Liam Neeson is brilliant! Also, re. a previous review; I believe the wolves were mostly animatronic and NOT CGI and the effect works very well!

As a whole package this film is average, the good and bad points for me were as follows:

Good - Some enjoyable and tense scenes here and there, great locations, plus you get to watch Liam Neeson being a hard man for the duration.

Bad - Plot was predictable, full of flaws and cheesy cliches which detracted from the enjoyable bits; for example, they try to create emotional scenes without giving anywhere near enough character information. Obviously a large budget was spent in some areas but they seemed to cut a few corners here and there, for example the cgi wolves are terrible. Most of the scenarios are ridiculous and the film is very misleading about wolves and wolf behaviour.

Being a fan of Liam Neesan and looking forward to seeing a well put together survival adventure in the Alaskan wilderness, my dissapointment was acute. Although it held the attention of my teenage children, I found the portrayal of the wolf as a cunning predator to be somewhat over the top. Never mind the monster like size and growling and grunting. One scene made me think of the werewolf in the movie 'An American Werewolf in London'. And whoever advsied on the survival skills portrayed, wouldn't last a day on Kinder Scout.

Sorry adults, don't waste your hard earned cash.

Had all the ingredients to make a fantastic film. Unfortunately the film was dull and uninteresting on every level. Save your money and watch something else!

The storyline could have been better. I regret I bought the film!

Very good film indeed, I love Liam Neeson. He's such a brilliant actor but the end was a tad disappointing, I NEED to know what happens next!! All in all great film! 🐺🔫

Yeah not great, sat through it all wished after all that time I invested, the ending gave me more, did he ? Didn't he ? . Wait till its on Sky etc don't pay.

He gets all tooled up to scrap with the alpha wolf and then it ends pointless! Good film throughout and nice twist at end but its annoying at end!

I'm afraid I didn't enjoy this film at all - probably because I've spent a bit of time living and working in the high Arctic, and I've seen wolves at a Canadian weather station called Eureka - and the plot; the idea of a pack of wolves that are utterly unafraid of fire/noise/humans is completely absurd. It's nicely shot in places, but beyond that it was so far-fetched as to be nonsensical. Two thumbs down, I'm afraid.

😳The other reviews say it gets boring,

I just think it drags on abit and Liam Nilssons character is abit of a jar if u ask me,but all round a good film it dosnt get boring thou,and the wolves are excellent.🔫

Most boring film I have ever seen! The only bit that was good was the end! Even more disappointed at the end when he was the only one left! Was bit sad at the end though!

This film has a really promising start. However it soon descends into a cascade of nonsense scenarios, More importantly this movie has questionable ethics as wolves have a hard time of it enough in the wild at the hands of humans. What this movie does is play to every stereotype about wolves that there is. We gave it an hour and stopped watching.

Loved it - gripping,reflective and a new twist of this kind of action /thriller

The idea was good and the acting top class so it looked promising until they introduced the wolves. Then it became quite unrealistic - wolves not intimidated by a plane crash in their territory and, although apparently not having see humans before, becoming instant "man eaters" and, one by one, picking of the survivors and killing, but not eating them, individually rather than as a pack. This contrasted with Liam Neilson's role as wolf-expert as he advised the other survivors on the nature of these wild creatures in a scientific sounding, but obviously unrealistic, narrative. Got a bit more silly when someone jumped off a cliff and landed in a tree horizontally about 20m from the top of the cliff etc etc. so unfortunately a bit childish... First 15 minutes was good though.

Not perfect by any means but a terrific meditation on the space between life and death wrapped up in an action movie. The title of the short story upon which it is based "Ghost Walker" more clearly indicates what is this grey space. At once about not giving up, but also a meditation upon letting go might I suggest that some less thoughtful reviewers are missing the point. The film it reminded me of most is Jacob's Ladder.

Loved this film from start to end, Liam Neeson at his best for sure.. It's very tense, sad, exciting and the rest of it! An amazing ending too, great film.

Liam Neeson at his best I just didn't like the ending... It was like mass effect 3 haha

A very poor film. All the build up but not enough pace. I was bored rigid!

Brilliant, amazing! Loved every minute of it! Ending was mysterious and left you wondering but that's the genius of it!

It was ok. I thought the ending could of been a bit better I mean I love a bit of mystery but it left me thinking watching this film was a wast of time ! It was a little far fetched but dont watch if you are afraid of dogs !! I would watch the sequel to it though.

Liam neeson is a fantastic actor and his performance was not to be criticised. The story however lacked action, the thrill was there but it was lacking that juicy fight. I wanted to see more action for our great Liam....

This is a very predictable and boring film. If it weren't for the odd comedic wolf attack I would have had to switch if off.

Neeson at his best!

This is a great movie. And contrary to what some reviewers here are saying, the ending is fantastic. If you like a movie to be more than just a throwaway slice of action, you should watch this. Brilliant - Liam, well done for choosing something that isn't just standard action fare.

What a waste of 13.99 just wish I had read the reviews first, the preview is better than the film. Nuff said.

Sorry Liam, I like a lot of your movies, but this one stinks. Absolute rubbish. Save your money people, don't download it. Gang of weirdos stuck in the middle of nowhere, running from wolves, picked off one by one. Rubbish, rubbish, rubbish.

Don't watch this film if a) you are afraid of dogs, b) you like a good ending. I enjoyed the film for the most part but can't say it kept my attention. However the ending, I felt, was weak.

I had expected more from this film. Bizarre 'glove puppet' wolves aside, I found the plot very unconvincing. I am sure it had wolf experts all over the world screaming at their screens! Very polite of the alpha to give him time to unpack his tape & and finish strapping the mini bar to himself at the end. Really? Oh dear Liam.

I stopped watching when the guy starting mauling the wolf they were eating. I thought this was going to be a gripping film about survival; instead - up until that point, it was little more than a sick, depraved wolf-killing/maming fest. Utterly unnecessary. And who would leave a crash-site (with some shelter, and other gubbins that could be useful), for trees (where wolves would take shelter themselves, presumably)? Also, Liam Neeson is hard to understand - he drawls, and speaks in a low volume; plus, the film is essentially grey and black; so - often, it's hard to make out what's happening. I'd like to find out what happens in the end, but I'm not going to indulge the wolf mutillation scene - or any more animal brutality - further.

Don't waste your money pls!

I'm surprised this is rated 3.5/5.

Boring. Predictable. No tension. Pointless ending. Disappointing.

Beautifully filmed & one can even forgive Neeson’s hollow acting, better suited to blue screens I feel, but these wolves obviously arrived from outer space because this is where we need a reality check, oh, & didn't we just know that Neeson would, well I best not give the ending away, but keep those immortal lines in your head, " I will find you, & when I find you I will kill you".

But if you can ignore all of this then good light-hearted entertainment, after a Chinese takeaway and a few glasses of wine, we did laugh out way through most of it.

Still not sure how they got the shotgun shells to detonate at the end of pointy sticks, but heh ho, a good giggle.

Very poor, non existant plot. Nice shots of the snow and some wolves or that is what they were supposed to be.

Come on we can do better than this ' Grey in every way '.

I've always been pleasently suprised when watching films with Liam Neeson but thought I would just rent the film insead of buying. I'm glad that I did. While Liam gives us a strong performance i feel that something was missing from the film, (perhaps I was expecting more blood and guts) and more action from Liam also. The concept of this film also reminds me of 'Alive' however 'Alive' in comparision would be much more entertaining than this film!

I also found this a little slow in places but the story line was good and flowed well.

The ending was also a suprise and a little dissapointing....but I'm not going to give the game away. Its certainly worth a watch but once you have seen it once, you probably won't see again which is why I have had to give it 3 out of 5. I would have given this a 4 but the ending was annoying!

If you're easily frustrated by characters in horror films doing stupid things and making terrible decisions with no regard for common sense, then this isn't for you. It's a real shame because elements of this are very good. The odd scene packs surprising emotional power.

The story line was poor and the ending was rubbish. Complete waste of time and money.

I would probably say complete waste of money and time

Great film, a tonic of action, human survival and an emotional rollercoaster! For the folks that did like the end, wait until the full credits have rolled! Liam Neeson is simply class as always.

I have been a fan of Joe Carnahans films since his debut feature Narc,and his catalogue includes Smokin Aces & the A Team .

the grey is his toughest movie yet and a triumph for Liam Neesson who holds the film down and his character is very well played,unusually grim and tough for a hollywood film,this isnt a family freindly film at all.

i rented this the other night and was griipped from start to finish and the ending is one of finality,a tough film and a great one at that.

I saw mixed reviews for this move good and very bad i found it very entertaining all through there are moments where you think what the ? but hey its a film certainly worth a watch.

liam what you been thinking...

ive watched loads of films over time and can watch most, but this got turned off after 45 minutes due to the total rediculousness that went on. wouldnt recommend you spend any money or time on it. wait for tv if you have to watch it.

This film makes no sense. It's well shot and the craft is fine, but the story is so full of logic floors that in the end it just gets silly. For instance, why leap off a cliff edge into some trees instead of walking down? A strange mis-hit from an otherwise pretty good talent.

Truly breathtaking Liam Neeson at his best a must see
