Would've been better without the romance
I like both Idris Elba and Kate Winslet, however I feel like this film could've been much better without a pointless romance between them.

This should've been a survival film only, and it would've been much more endearing. The love story was a little ridiculous and unnecessary, and the ending too was just predictable and cheesy. As purely a survival film though, this could have actually been quite good. There are parts of this where they appear to survive fairly harsh conditions and situations without any real consequences, which seems a little farfetched - they spend 3 weeks in the mountains but barely seem knackered at all. There also seem to be a few nuances and plot holes. I also get very annoyed with survival films when one of the characters is always a doctor! It's awfully convenient.

To be fair this was an alright film to watch until it started on the romance. I'm just glad nothing bad happened to the dog.

Had I known more about the author, I probably wouldn't have read this book. I didn't like the woman herself, she's part of a very large group of women that have selective memory regarding stories, like her own.
Her story of survival was well-written, but I still don't like her.
