A found footage movie from a director Renny Harlin who already made some bigger films like Die Hard 2, Cliffhanger, Deep Blue Sea, etc. Does this mean the big name extends the medium? Not really.. but there is worse. I found the beginning rather boring. Lots of exposition and seemingly unprepared kids going for a hike (despite them showing us their training videos). It takes a fucking long time to get going and never really takes of. We already got Trollhunter in a snow- and cave-setting so this one taking on the Russians and their secret in the mountains isn't really something new and with recent games like Singularity or Metro we still know that there could be things hidden. Needless to say the CGI later doesn't help the atmosphere and presenting us things we've seen before. Only the facepalm-worthy ending adds a nice twist to it and makes it full-circle but there are still too many plotholes and doesn't seem to be a valid theory for what happend at the Pass that night...
