Watch the DVD special features and enjoy the stink of tax-funded baloney
The actress tells us her character is a completely urbanized lawyer who's never left the city. Such an urbanite would not have any back-country survival skills. She'd die of blood loss, shock, exposure, hunger, and dehydration by the second night--not to mention drinking from that muddy water.
Urban lawyers are not natural woodsmen; LOL, come on, Adam.
The writer-director admits he set up phony plot points (such as the Irish woodsman) simply to further his story. He also seems not to realize he's simply remade Jaws and Alien.
And then there's the entire opening sequence which is a blatant rip-off of The Shining opening sequence.
And then the Producer (the financier) tells us the "true story" on which this farce is 'based': his own camping trip "in the Adirondacks" where a black bear snuffled around his tent. He also says they made the film simply to scare people about bears.
Oh yeah--black bears are shy of and really don't eat people; massive nighttime thunderstorm squall lines really don't occur in October in northern Ontario; a woodsman wouldn't use a spanking new giant hunting knife to gut pickerel (and that creepy guy took WAY past his legal limit and I didn't see a fishing rod); you can't EAT wintergreen; and the phony Provincial Park name on the canoe is an absolute INSULT to aboriginal Canadians' language.
Aaaaand then there's the phony contemporarily childish nonsense regarding gender roles. The Jenn character is completely unrealistic. She's there simply to win female viewers who are delusional as to their own intelligence and resourcefulness.
This film is phony contemporary Canadian politically-correct garbage made by little urbanite go-getters. Watch The Mountain Men instead for better realism.
