The Girl on the Mountain (2022)
It ain't Shakespeare, but not as bad as some people are saying
I watched this movie carefully.
First question in a review is, "What did we like class."
I agree the scenery was breathtaking, but I'm a mountain junkie.
I enjoyed the fact that I didn't have to apologize to my wife and daughter about excessive language.
I was very pleased to see someone effectively using American Sign Language properly.
The heroic lead, "Jack" was worth my investment in the movie to follow his character development from orchestral director to mountain man with a haunted past.
That, in itself earned this movie a better than average score.
Second question in a review is what did it need.
Big Al was more buffoon and bully, than a dangerous man. His 3 amigos were more like cub scouts on a day hike than a fearsome gang. We may have wished for the crew to be a larger threat.
It ain't Shakespeare, or Easy Rider, but it was a decent movie to watch with the family.
