But sadly, it’s not without some damaging problems.
Then James CameronsAliensshould be high on your watching list.
The Grey, though, gets it the wrong way around.
The problem, though, is that my button stopped working.
And for the second half of the film,The Greybecomes something else.
He was thus determined to do something about it.
Yet this fleshing out proves fatal for the momentum that the film has built up.
But thats the only part where youd wishThe Greywas longer.
Its seriously flagging for much of its last half hour.
Youll remember Neeson, though.
Punching a wolf in the face?
Neeson is also your go-to man when it comes to surviving in extreme winter conditions.
At his best, Carnahan himself puts in excellent work, too.
His early cocktails of noise and silence, flashback and current story, deliberately jar to good effect.
The creatures themselves are realised impressively, too.
A marriage of physical and CG effects, along with real-life animals, they never fail to convince.
Still: it does feature Liam Neeson punching a wolf in the face.
