Set-up Could Have Made Us Love David More- I had to drop this review because everyone here came to talk about how Kate has changed and for that reason, they're kind of biased towards the movie. It's true that the storyline isn't new, like most other movies (or why do you think we keep getting remaking)... I think people are used to how good she is that they want to see some extremely exceptional from her. But the movie had so many nice scenes and of course, there are some flawed parts. Yet, we can't just throw in debatable ratings here. I'm reducing ratings to four because while the story has the regular tropes that were used well and certain events, the story could have been stronger enough to give us emotional pull. Maybe it's because the scenes that could have made us love and care enough for the husband were just two. I'm guessing this was to serve us actions, it just didn't hit it hard enough.

It's a story that cancels out all the horror movies about hiking. It's a story of a child coming to terms with her father's love for hiking and learning to enjoy that same life. At first, I gave it a 3 star, then changed to four because I almost overlooked the story there. The story is more about a daughter and father's bond. Many hate the fact that it doesn't come with the intense drama they're used to, which is understandable (movies should be for people, after you've produced it for your pleasure). The idea of the story is a silent toggle between a father's idea and a child's support. Her father loves hiking and is even thinking about recruiting people to hike China. This is something his friend feels is irresponsible. You can tell Matt hates this hike but came to support his oldest friend. And as such, he forgets things that would keep him warm. It's just a story of hikers and the things they face: 1. The strangers they'd meet, who might signup for their dreams. 2. The friends that don't believe in their dream and want them to return to the idea world. At the end, we see the girl battling with her longing for modern day friendship over the bonding in the forest. Towards the end, she contemplated leaving it all behind, but eventually came to terms with the new life. My one star was because they could have added a deep backstory that made her eventually love hiking.

Really found the concept intriguing.

Living in Nigeria has never made me miss one of my best show in the world, if not the only show. All other foreign shows I follow have either stopped but the voice has continually impressed me that I always call it my show. I wish I can be one of the audience someday or even sing to the coaches. Now to the review proper. The creative team is really doing impressive work out there. Its touch of excellence makes the show look seemless and not recorded. The Voice always put up a great show, and doesn't shy from letting you realise this is a show.
