Rather than being classed as a Thriller, this movie is really a Drama, and a slow burn at that. I don't think it was a bad film, I can give it at most 6 stars out of ten. I even got emotional at one point. But in general this film way too slow paced for me, and could have definitely been shortened. It may have been more effective that way, but that's just me.

The morale of this story is to be careful travelling in any part of the world that's off road, off map. Stick to the main road and maps always. Plan ahead. Have emergency provisions always. Have back ups of everything. Use a clear, sensible head in all decision making, and of course tell someone not travelling with you, where you intend on going.

The main characters in this film made a series of very poor decisions, and were way in over their heads. This is what truly lead to their crisis.

As an Aussie, this film didn't cause me any suspense, and there was some inaccuracy regarding a route of locations mentioned. The cinematography was beautiful, though. That was probably the highlight of the film for me.
