Ordeal in the Artic

ORDEAL IN THE ARTIC (1993) - Master Warrant Officer Tom Jardine

MWO Jardine: Switch places with me it might be a little warmer.

Content (3): In 1991 a Canadian military plane crashes in the Artic, with survivors struggling to stay alive with minimal supplies, dim hopes of rescue and a storm approaching. Based on true events.
Production (2.5): Snow, wind, ice, and a crashed plane. Plenty of b-grade 'made for tv' acting and a lot of cold actors rugged up in beanies, snow jackets and ugg boots.
Acting (2.5): His first professional acting job. Barely recognisable when he's dying in the snow. Also, is it strange that every actor in the movie sounded more like The Captain than NF himself? I knew every country has a different accent but I didn't realise the Canadians had such a different twang to the Yanks.
Hair (2): Early 90s boy band haircut. Enough said.
Bonus (1): Well his character's early death doesn't warrant any bonus points (since he was in the movie for like 10 mins) but the fact it was better than Dracula 2000 is worthy of something...

Total: 11.5

Up next Firefly...
