The Grey

Wow! Not since the opening 15 minutes of Jaws back in 1975, has a movie had such a frightening beginning. Remind me to never fly commercially over Alaska. The premise of the movie is believable. Thus it is a pulse pounding roller coaster ride of a story.

Liam Neeson again proves he is the best action actor in movies hands down. He's not a super hero by any means. No one liners like Arnold or Bruce Willis. Just a believable person in an intense situation of life and death.

I don't want to give away the plot of this movie since it just recently came to the theaters. But it takes place in Alaska, outdoors in a hostile winter environment and there is a wolf pack. And I don't mean the Boyscouts variety. And this is far scarier than any werewolf movie since wolves hunting in packs are real.

You will not regret seeing this film at a theater. It's a must to fully take in the opening 15 minutes on a big screen.

I give this movie an 8 rating out of 10. (One being a bomb).

Till next time...
