Wow, this meanders. And I don't mean that in a good way. Grey in name, grey in colour, grey in just about every sense. The Grey is so dull.
Liam Neeson plays John Ottway, a man who ends up on an aeroplane that crashes somewhere in Alaska. Cue the potential for a movie about cannibalism, and how to survive in the wild (try Alive, a much better movie). By this point in the movie I was already bored rigid, so to be fair it didn't really matter that The Grey didn't head in this direction. Instead, it introduces wolves. Wolves that like to kill men in Alaska who have just been in a plane crash. I honestly didn't think that a movie about blood-thirsty wolves could be this dull.
I'd finish this review, but I've fallen asleep...
Rating: 1 out of 5
