This story appears to be loosely based on Ty Gagne's Footprints in the Snow. Which by all accounts is an interesting story of a person who follows footprints in the snow and ens up rescuing a suicidal man.
But, Infinite Storm feels like the person who wrote it read Ty Gagne then decided to change it up to be random and somewhat pointless rather than stick to what made Ty's story so engaging.
Naomi Watts in the movie happens to be part of search and rescue who happens to just be on a walk-about who happens to encounter a big storm and happens to come across a man. This man acts like he's on meth or strong acid, not suicidal. Actually, he bounces between cracking out and being lucid. While Naomi Watts falls all over the place calling his made up name and trying to get him down the mountain.
It's not that the movie is bad or good just poorly written, hurried and meaningless. Naomi Watts is awesome as usual. Billy Howle is good as well but seems lost in what his character is supposed to be. Cinematography is good.
The problem with Infinite Storm is the writing and some directing. It feels rushed and missing a lot of content. Almost like they hit the end of a budget and wrapped it up. I find it crazy that a movie based on a story that had so much meaning ending up being extremely meaningless. Hard pass on this one.
