3.5/5

Part high-altitude adventure movie, part kidnapping caper film, "A Lonely Place to Die" is more exciting than smart, though that's not the worst thing you can say about a movie.

This is a pretty neat thriller, and it could well take the Gilbey brothers to Hollywood.

2/5

By splitting the survivor horror elements with the "being hunted in the wilderness" elements, neither component is ever executed to its full potential.

...the script had an authentic feel throughout. Even as twists and turns developed, the heart and logic of the thriller remained intact.

2/5

Admittedly, this isn't the greatest premise in the world, but with a good script and assured direction, greatness was still reachable. Unfortunately for everyone concerned, A Lonely Place to Die has neither.

Outdoor action thriller entertains from beginning to end. Melissa George is terrific and believable in lead role as athletic mountain climber.

Thrilling, smart, well written and photography that has no peer. Melissa George is amazing as well as all around her in this under rated film.
