Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

Maidgethma Wonderfully offbeat film!

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

antman-69594 I've never written a review in my life, but I had to voice my frustration. This is a really atmospheric movie, with likeable characters and a fair amount of suspense. It's definitely worth watching...BUT...what drove me crazy was the ridiculous camera movement. My guess is, in an attempt to be arty and perhaps to give a first person perspective of the terror of being alone and hunted in the woods, the camera shakes and sweeps all over the place. Annoying and pointless!! Movie makers, PLEASE stop doing this!

DavidC641990 This movie I swear after the guy gets killed. It became so stupid. The guy knew there was a bear. You don't leave a weapon out of reach when you know the bear is nearby. You use the spray as soon as the bear enters the tent not after he starts feasting on your boyfriend. This would have been better if they fought the bear. You take the sleeping bag and shove it in the bears face. When a bear drags your boyfriend out. You run and start stabbing it. You don't wait till it's enjoying your boyfriend. this movie pissed me off so much. No wonder the Revanent was so much better! There's too many scenes that drag on and just the camera just stays focus on the characters faces. You don't continue a hike when your injure your foot. A tour guide that's knows the area should have known about the bear and gave them weapons or should have said if your not back here at a certain day I'm coming to find you guys. Sorry it had a good plot, but the stupidity in the characters just made me hate this movie!

Michael Ledo If you happen to peak at the cover while looking at the title, you know it is about an encounter with a bear, that is not going to be pretty. Alex (Jeff Roop) and his girlfriend Jenn (Missy Peregrym) go camping late in the season on a trail he knew as a kid. He doesn't need a map so guess where this goes. It is just a matter of time before our couple who don't know how to play dead, encounter a bear.Now the question of who survives and who doesn't is the only mystery. I was once told you don't have to be the fastest person when running away from a bear, you just can't be the slowest (pushing someone down and tripping are fouls to consider). Rape whistles are not really effective, but if that is all you got...I'm sure some people who are falling flap their arms too.Of course our couple can't just run into a bear. It has to be introduced slowly to build the tension. The encounter was more like a shot of a circus bear yawning with a dubbed roar then show some blood. It was low budget graphic. Not exciting.It is a fair film. I wish they had created a better couple instead of a boring woman and a sad sack.Guide: F-bomb. No sex. Male butt nudity.

jtncsmistad Missy Peregrym is my new heroine. The fetching Canadian actress is a flat-out bad ass as she struggles against the Ontario wilderness and a human hunting bear in "Backcountry". Loosely based on a true story, Peregrym's character and her boyfriend (Jeff Roop, who also impresses) actually switch circumstances in this gripping interpretation of grisly events by Writer/Director Adam MacDonald. You'll please pardon the pun.
