Good drama adventure with a superb cast, worth seeing
Worth watching. Inspired by real events.
A very underrated adventure movie about the human condition under adversity. I truly recommend it
"A set of Siberian gulag escapees travel thousands of miles on foot too freedom great cast and a decent movie"
Compelling journey film. Is definitely a slow burn.
A beautiful movie based on an unbelievable story. It’s impossible not to get emotional when watching the characters’ suffering.
Epic journey, explores depths of human will.
A underrated movie about a true story. Tense scenes and amazing visuals.
Awful russian accents, I changed the language to German... where they too have awful fake accents. Besides, America good, russia bad, meh
The film plays with the length of Lawrence of Arabia, yet slogs in reality at only two-plus hours. Disappointed since this is Peter Weir.
