The best line in this movie was: Bob (Baldwin) says to Charles (Hopkins) in referring to the huge bear who is stalking them, "What are we going to do, Charles?" Charles calmly replies, "We're going to kill him."

The interplay between the billionaire and the photographer who is playing with his young wife is very interesting. You keep wondering when and if Bob will make a move. The two are trying to find their way out of the wilderness after a plane crash. Hopkins is a rich guy who knows everything and and finally saves the day, even though he was threatened with death. The bear fight was excellent. Bart the bear should have received an award. A high point was at the end when Charles hands Bob's watch to his wife. Watch the movie and you will know why she knew that Charles knew.
