Whiteout. Really good film.

Plenty of action, nice scenery. IMDB User Rating gave it only 5 stars, so won`t listen to them again. So many action films are a let down, we really enjoyed this one & would give it a 9.

I watched the Blu-ray the other night and thought it was average at best.

Interesting. We like a good thriller, action film & as I said before, a lot of the ones we`ve watched recently have been a let down, but this one delivered the goods. What did you think was missing for your taste?

Agreed barely any tension in it

What the gentleman said. It wasn`t terrible, but I doubt I`ll even remember it in a few weeks. Kinda saw the `villain` as well.

I thought it was a massive missed opportunity. I thought the setting and atmosphere was brilliantly set up (albeit very reminiscent of The Thing and 30 Days Of Night), but the dreariness of the story ruined it for me, especially...

SPOILER:
Tom Skerritt turning out to be the villain (shock horror! :D ) and that it was all just about a load of diamonds

Yeah, and also all the fuss over her `nude` scene, which was actually just of shot of her in her pants (and might even have been a body double).

It`s just another middle of the road run of the mill thriller where the "twist" is so predictable it`d be a bigger twist to do pretty much anything other than the "twist".
