I stumbled per chance over The Way Back, never heard or read anything about this movie before. The Way Back is based on the memoir/book of the former Polish prisoner of war Slawomir Rawicz, who claimed to have escaped from a Soviet Gulag and walked 4,000 miles to freedom during World War II. The production is fine, director and cast do well (Sturgess, Farrell, Harris, Strong, Ronan), the story captivating - I would recommend this one to everyone who likes movies a la The Grey, The Revenant, As Far as My Feet Will Carry Me and so on. My only complain on this one is that the Gulag part was a little too short for my taste.
