As much as the actors do with the material, however, they can't quite lift the film beyond standard sappy romance territory.

The Mountain Between Us fails almost exclusively because of Kate Winslet. It's a case of good actress in the wrong film, playing across a good leading man who just doesn't resonate on her frequency.

At one point you almost start rooting for the elements to win out, just so these two [characters] would just shut up.

The idea of pairing Winslet with Elba certainly is attractive. Being acclaimed actors, you know they can make anything work. They definitely give their all, even though the plot treads on thin ice when it cannot decide which genre it wants to be in.

Come for the love story, stay for the dog.

I was surprised by the film's shift from adventure story to romantic melodrama, and yet the turn feels natural. Everyday life more often resembles a melodrama than an adventure story.

The romantic fantasy tendencies hijack this otherwise interesting unconventional love story in order to become a sort of bizarre Idris Elba fan fiction.

...one can't help but wonder if the fairly ludicrous storyline worked better on the page. (It surely had to, right?)
October 31, 2017
A cursory thriller and unconvincing melodrama wedged together with nothing but some lovely landscape photography to give it any meaning at all.

Labored and boring, The Mountain Between Us is a soap opera in the snow that fritters away the time and talents of Kate Winslet and Idris Elba for all the wrong reasons.

The chemistry between Idris Elba and Kate Winslet is impeccable... [Full review in Spanish]

Skip The Mountain Between Us. If you're in the mood to be cloyed, watch a Hallmark movie instead.
