A good and respectful effort put in here by everyone involved. The cast is strong, the direction top-notch, and a gripping story. The downsides are that it's a little on the long side and there are parts where things definitely drag. Perfect for WWII buffs and fans of Peter Weir, but I'll admit there were times I was looking at the clock wondering how much time was left.

"The Way Back" is a drama, adventure and survival combined, of seven men who escape from Siberia under communism and walk for their freedom with limited food and water supply and challenging weather coming their way. Wow! This is a good one, REALLY! I didn't expect much from this but turned out to be an epic? (would you agree with that?) Really good. Over all picture was outstanding. The actors perform well. Good to see Saoirse Ronan and Colin Farrell- this two characters made the film watchable throughout those parts that possibly ended up boring. However, I didn't fully grasp Janusz' character, he served as the leader but nothing really special to him except that skill of knowing where south is. But in general, VERY GOOD! :)
