This early 70's giallo by Umberto Lenzi is certainly among the best in his filmography and also in the whole genre. Personally I think Lenzi's best films are the funny cartoon-turned-film Kriminal, the stylish giallo Seven Blood-Stained Orchids, the explosive Napoli violenta and this. In the eighties he did plenty of film trash in form of Eaten Alive, Hitcher in the Dark or Black Demons, all of which are ripping something off and/or very dull and slow moving. Knife of Ice came when the giallo boom was at its hottest and the result is convincing.
Technically the film is superb, containing great cinematography in the beginning when we learn about the main character's trauma towards trains. From this point on, Lenzi shows us his ability to benefit the widescreen and, for example, the bicycle ride near the forest is genuinely beautiful! This scene also shows Lenzi's ability to build suspense, very slowly but meaningfully. After all, there aren't so many murders in the whole film, only the suspense circulating around the murderer's identity.
One suspect is a devil worshipper which brings new aspects to the mystery. Since the final scene takes place in a church, one can wonder if Lenzi wanted to comment on something, maybe the hypocritical morale of church and superstition. The main character (Carrol Baker) is mute which demands a lot from her face and eyes. The actress works very well, giving us a believable performance circulating around the emotions of fear and mental pain. The other actors are good, too. The finally, however, may not give too positive a sight about female sex since they all are expressed rather negatively in the film, one way or another. Still this is easily among the most noteworthy in the genre, not as bloody as the Argento films, for example, but equally suspenseful and visually also interesting.
普通的勵志片，拍得最用心的傳教片，少了點迷信，多了點宗教探討

对探险故事没有抵抗力，无论电影还是书籍。很想看原著《两个人对抗霜雪》（电影中如此翻译），搜了一下，找不到这本书，不知道有无引进中文版。
这世上总有些东西是值得我们流泪的，如吃饭的星空，如浩瀚的大海，如北极冰盖上的皑皑白雪。
没有最绝望的时候，绝处能逢生。
看一半赶紧关了，能把这么好的题材拍得这么烂也是导演的本事
或許，斯圖爾特一家都有心理問題，通過他成為神父的事情，都消除了心理問題，當然也就沒有什麽掛念了。他們都放下了史蒂芬，活成了自己，也一定和斯圖爾特做神父有關繫，因為他已經放下了，併且說話直指人心，讓基督教徒們更為信服。他實現了自己的救贖，也要救贖別人，驗證神學的偉大，當然，也是他經受命運捉弄之後的一種頓悟吧。
马克终于不再拍一些无脑商业大片了，总是有个好的转型开始了，从他的剧中体型变化也能看出来，应该是下了不少功夫，希望越来也好，这个电影的原型斯图尔特．朗好强，真的男人，一生不屈服，进行抗争.......
这年头有钱人有钱之后都开始洗白自己以前的犯罪行为了，马克也不例外
Typically Mel Gibson,preaching but nothing else
主演选得妙。The transformer is always the transformer! 这种以真实事件改编的电影直击我的泪腺。前有《钢锯岭》后有《神父斯图》
影片前后调性不一致，但还是感谢电影展示这个故事。初始目的勿论，探险家以历史角度评判是全人类的英雄，人类之所以能够拥抱整个地球，他们每一个人都居功至伟。
人畜无害很俗套没啥野心但也挺轻松的大数据电影，一个问题在于，开头如何造成女主瘫痪的原因似乎没有点明，而这个似乎不是能够直接忽视的动机。不过，看Rebel Wilson都瘦出锁骨了，太扎心了，而我看本片的此刻仍在喝奶茶……
普通平淡的传记片，马克·沃尔伯格尚可的演技和与以往不同的形象算是唯一看点，无神论者完全无法共情，剧情拖沓无趣到四十分钟弃
美式青春校园生活电影在2022年的绝好复刻，传递的价值观真的很正啊，有歌舞，有欢乐，有青春的活力，有对生活的正向引导，不错不错
拍得好平啊。。。是不是新人导演的原因，明明这么励志的真实故事
网飞电影一如既往带来一些理念，这次说的是年龄不该是阻碍，想想宫雪花47岁都可以参加选美，三十几岁更是兼具青春美丽和成熟魅力的大好时期，风靡校园又有何不可。
我喜欢这种真人历险 挑战极限的电影 800多天的与世隔绝 需要太强大的心理
探险家是社会进步的动力，即使遇到挫折，付出生命，探索永远是人类的未来
算是工整的传记片，略平，马克（增肥）和梅尔森的组合算是亮点；但宗教内核不太能理解，just so so.
