Movie.... Back country
 
Good outdoor adventure movie starts off slow, picks up quick.

Or what not to do in the back country- "map I don't need a map"

on Netflix

'Backcountry'
 
I've seen the selection on Netflix, but I haven't bothered to watch it yet.

From the trailer, it looks fairly predictable ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46uwmzTf5nA

On the upside, it might help to keep some of the city folks out of the bush. :lol:

Not a bad show at all ..bit graphic in spots but worth a watch .

Always easy to tell when an outdoors drama movie is made by people who have never been in the outdoors and know squat about it. Then again its made for viewers who don't know squat about the outdoors either....

My girlfriend watched it a few weeks after we finished a back country hike and now she wants me to buy a backpack gun. Any reason to buy a new gun is a good reason to me :love0025:

I enjoyed the Caddy Lake scenes as it brought back memories of paddling trips in my youth

Looks OK to me. I'll have to check it out. The chick in it looks pretty good.

JWCalgary 09-25-2017 10:10 AM

Not with the wife!
 
Do not, I repeat, do not watch this movie with your wife if she not that outdoorsy and is hesitant about you hunting in bear country . . . I had to explain myself for twenty minutes after this one

You mean like hiding from a bear in a nylon tent or fleeing a bear taking the engagement ring instead of the bear spray.

No need for me to watch it since I live off grid Any-Who.

Every thing I learned the hard way, ain't no TV show going to help me get it more wrong. Ha.

Boots on the ground is better time spent IMO that is.

Don, if you're posting how you live off grid, I don't think you fully understand the concept of living off grid. :sHa_sarcasticlol:

Watched the movie and was thoroughly disappointed. It is hard to comprehend how this movie would makes some folks scared to go in the woods.

Mountain Guy 09-26-2017 12:31 PM

Its a great movie if you like low budget Canadian movies and like your intelligence insulted.

urcayuse 09-26-2017 02:33 PM

^^so it's just as believable as "The Revanent" I take it?!

Skoaltender 09-26-2017 03:44 PM

can't believe this movie is getting praise on here, absolutely terrible.

bat119 09-26-2017 04:48 PM

The real story is nowhere close to the real story, total fabrication I found it amusing imagine your from the city and never been to the great outdoors.

Black bear kills woman camper north of Chapleau, Ont.

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/black-...u-ont-1.556281

Ontario Provincial Police said that while the bear was attacking Perry, her husband managed to stab it with a Swiss Army knife in a frantic effort to keep it from dragging his wife into the woods.
Perry was a family doctor at Grandview Medical Centre in Cambridge, Ont.
The couple were on a two-week holiday, camping and kayaking at a remote campsite when the black bear attacked.
OPP Const. Karen Farand said after fighting off the bear, the injured Jordan carried his wife to their kayak and started paddling to the nearest campsite. He yelled for help, and a father and son from Pennsylvania heard him and took Perry into their boat.

Mark later received the Star of Courage award from Governor General Michaëlle Jean

Dozens of threads of what to carry in bear country nobody thought of a Swiss army knife
:sign0161:

brslk 09-26-2017 09:19 PM

Just watched it. I thought it was good.
I wasn't expecting a documentary.
Some of you guys are only happy watching Dick Proenneke movies.

Perhaps some of you who look down on people who aren't masters of the
outdoors should stay away from civilized things like TV and movies.

It's a Canadian movie, so it'll be cheesy as all heck, but I'll try to watch a bit. Thanks for the heads-up OP.

Yes we live off grid as well. We only have 4 tv's, my wife makes pickles every year and have our own beef. Totally self sufficient cause the wife gets all our groceries at costco and superstore. :)

It's the fuzzy channel, gotta hold the rabbit ears to watch...


It's all I said to my self was boom, rack another, boom...when I saw the spray I giggled...if this was based on a true story it must have been a poop show two city folks engaged in a no way out type situation other then something is going to die...I would ha e preferred the bear dead, and don't say a thing scenario.

wow it truly was a terrible movie.

plot hole 1 it was a black bear. no one is afraid of black bears and they're more likely to crap themselves and die out of fear than they are to eat you.


just so bad

Bergerboy 09-28-2017 11:05 AM

ugh I have to watch this pos now

It's not a good movie by any stretch, but if I have the TV on watching reruns, I'd rather watch a ****ty movie about the outdoors than 2 Broke Girls or The Big Bang Theory.
