Na een tragisch vliegtuigongeluk zijn twee vreemden op elkaar aangewezen om onder barre omstandigheden op een afgelegen, met sneeuw bedekte berg te overleven. Als ze zich realiseren dat er geen hulp zal komen, beginnen ze noodgedwongen aan een verschrikkelijke tocht door honderden kilometers wildernis. Ze vragen het uiterste van elkaar om te overleven, waardoor er onverwachts een aantrekkingskracht wordt aangewakkerd tussen de twee. (20th Century Fox)

Recensie (5)
I was quite surprised by this film. Idris Elba and Kate Winslet are both excellent and they fit together nicely. The film has a few suspenseful moments, keeps the pace, has an unobtrusive romantic line and you sympathize with the main characters. It may have lacked a little something I haven't seen before in this genre to make me rate it higher, but otherwise I had a good time. 70%

Based on a not-so-simple love story, The Mountain Between Us is a very nice romance with effective chemistry
between the main duo, Kate Winslet and Idris Elba are great. The ending was okay, but I would have preferred something less
sweet.

There’s already been quite enough plane crashes into American mountains in Hollywood. But when you add a high-quality filmmaking craft to the premise, it can’t be disappointing. Even though it’s only a three-star (therefore mediocre) movie, the overall impression isn’t bad at all. The camera work offers some gorgeous shots of the Canadian Panorama Mountain Village and the acting is worth it, too.

I liked the fact that the survival part is not unnecessarily filmed like an action film, but instead it is a rather contemplative film with a slow pace. However, then it came to the finale and I thought that it was actually screwed up, that it was all because of the bad last part, and I think that's a real shame.

While the film had its bright moments, they were outweighed by boredom, plot nonsense (the flawless emergency landing of a practically dead pilot) and a totally mind-numbing ending. Not that I want to underestimate Idris Elba's parameters, but The Mountain Between Us? Come on. I got over the title eventually, but the two survivors deeply disappointed me by leaving the pilot for later, but completely ignoring him afterwards, and then constantly lamenting over the lack of food. I was appalled by the highly unsanitary scene in the cabin, and I was incredibly happy that the screen cannot transmit odor along with picture and sound. I also didn't understand why those two kept acting like it was freezing cold, when it turned out that the ice on the lake was pretty damn thin. I’d rather not comment on the ending. Anyway, the scenery was breathtaking.
