The Grey - Okay film, but not your regular `action flick' 

The Grey is about a plane full of engineers that crashes and the survivors are stalked by wolves that can make their eyes glow for added menace.

It's a pretty simply premise - man vs glowing-eyed beast. There's been a lot of talk on the internet about whether wolves would really behave this way and mercilessly hunt down and kill any humans they find, but, if you're willing to believe that they would, then you can probably go with the story.

It's not your regular action/survival film. By that I mean, don't expect wall-to-wall battles and action set-pieces. It's more a group of men walking through snow, then getting picked off one by one.

If you're expecting action all the way, you may be disappointed. I found it a little slow. It's around two hours long and, in my opinion, could have been trimmed down by about half an hour. They pad out much of it with shots of Liam Neeson's girlfriend (not on the plane) and how much he misses her.

The scenery was nice, i.e. snow. Um, not much more I can say. It was okay - a little disappointing.

6/10 May just keep you awake if Freddy Krueger was haunting your nights
