Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Cooktopi The acting in this movie is really good.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
john-fadel21 Writing is bad the acting is just as bad, They should have just made it about the scenery of Alaska. Don't waste your time on this garbage.
lavatch It would be interesting to take a poll and learn if there is a consensus in choosing the most morally reprehensible resident of Sugar Mountain.First, there is the brother named Miles who hikes into the wilderness on the false pretense that he is lost in an Alaskan winter; he thereby endangers the lives of the honest people who form a posse to save him.Second, there is the other brother named Liam who is part of the plot, yet betrays his dear brother by sleeping with his girlfriend as the hoax is unfolding.Third, there is the woman named Lauren who sleeps with both brothers and also seems to be the one coming up with new ideas for a scam to sell lies to the media about her two boyfriends. When she decides to hook up with Liam for a one-nighter, she is doing so with the full knowledge that she is sleeping with her step-brother, which should be factored into the voting.Fourth, there is the local alcoholic sheriff and father of Lauren. He is on to the brothers' scam from the beginning, but is so incompetent that he is unable to arrest them.Fifth, there is the ironically named character Joe Bright. With more brawn than brains, Big Joe is eventually undone by his stupidity, as he seeks to extort money from the two brothers.The list goes on. The only truly likable character is sweet little Angie, who gives up an opportunity to travel to Paris in order pursue a romance with Liam. Unfortunately, Angie drops out of the film before it is half over.While the scenic grandeur of Alaska was apparent in the film, the overall narrative design seemed amateurish. In casting, it was difficult to believe the character relationships: the three young people seemed far too old for their youthful characters, and the sheriff seemed far too young to be Lauren's father.In the DVD version of "Sugar Mountain," there was included a fascinating short documentary entitled "Cold War." It told the story of female snipers originally recruited by Stalin during World War II. Apparently, the women continued to engage in terrorism in Alaska during the Cold War. That story might have served as a more engaging feature film for the producers of "Sugar Mountain."
rockdileesha This is the first time I'm commenting on IMDb simply because this movie is stunning.I can't understand why this movie is underrated.pretty sure it will take some higher ratings in the future.This movie was well written and well acted.Script was original with some twists in the tale.the film was well paced from the start to the end.Never heard of this film but i am glad that i found it. this one is quite unpredictable.being a horror/thriller fan i would love to see more films like this with better story line.Highly recommend this breathtaking flick. but this is not for everyone.stop reading this start watching it....
vincentjones I am surprised that Jason Momoa is the reason for so many people to watch this movie. But I watched this movie to look at the view of Alaska.I was disappointed at the Alaska scene because there is so few.But I was attracted by the connection and atmosphere of the little community: people know each other since childhood and people are tied with each so close that they could beat each other and like each other at the same time.Both actress are gorgeous and sexy. I am happy with this part.
