Against the Wild DVD Review & #Giveaway





Families from coast-to-coast will come along on a breathtaking and uplifting wilderness adventure when Anchor Bay Entertainment unleashes Against the Wild on DVD and digital download for the first time. The action-packed feature film tells the dramatic tale of two siblings and their Alaskan Malamute, who must make an emergency landing when their small plane has engine problems. They find themselves in a beautiful but potentially dangerous natural environment that they must overcome together. Written and directed by Richard Boddington, starring CJ Adams (The Odd Life of Timothy Green, Dan in Real Life), Erin Pitt (Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam and the upcoming American Girl: Isabelle Dances into the Spotlight) and Natasha Henstridge (“She Spies,” The Whole Nine Yards) and co-starring John Tench (Tooth Fairy), the film makes its national retail and digital debut on March 11, 2014.

A gripping adventure for the whole family, Against the Wild (SRP $24.98) begins with siblings Zach (Adams) and Hannah (Pitt) traveling by seaplane with Chinook, their Alaskan Malamute, to visit their father (Ted Whittall of “Beauty & The Beast”) for the weekend. When their plane encounters engine trouble, the pilot is forced to make an emergency landing in the woods in the middle of nowhere. As they travel on foot to seek help, Zach, Hannah and their loyal companion come face-to-face with the challenges of the wilds – from wolves and grizzly bears to forest fires. Using all the wilderness skills they know – and with some help from Chinook, the siblings must work together to overcome each obstacle and conquer the ultimate goal – returning home again.
An exciting, fast-paced adventure with beautiful cinematography and a stirring musical score performed by a live 65-piece orchestra in Prague, Against the Wild will keep the whole family on the edge of their seat from start to finish.

Against the Wild
has been approved for all ages by the Dove Foundation, which awarded the film with 5/5 Doves, and recommends it as “a terrific film for the entire family!”





 My Thoughts

Against the Wild is a fun family film the whole family can enjoy. In this movie, two siblings named Zach and Hannah find themselves lost in the mountains of the wilderness when their plane goes down. The children are all alone except for their faithful husky Chinook. Together the three of them try to navigate their way back to civilization. Along the way, they run into wild bears, scare of a pack of wolves , and camp out in a cave. All the while their parents are desperately trying to find them. 

This is such a great movie because it shows brothers and sisters that even though they may fight sometimes, they can trust each other when it comes right down to it. And of course you have to love the loyalty of man's best friend. The mountain scenery is beautiful and all the actors did a great job, including the furry ones. This is definitely a fun movie to watch together on family movie night. 

If you want to grab a copy for yourself, Against the Wild is available exclusively at Walmart and Walmart.com.
