Whiteout

So I watched Whiteout last night and I have to say I didn't like it.  The plot was very predictable and there was a lot of unnecessary parts to the plot including nudity and flashbacks.  The movie was about a US Marshall that is stationed in Antarctica who has to deal with a murder.  I'm getting tired that every time you watch a movie about Antarctica the lead person always has an issue and they are escaping their life to the most isolated place on earth.  Frankly there are other places to escape to so can we just stop with this theme.  The other problem with this movie was it could not decide what it was.  Whether it was a slasher film, a Russian mystery, a cop movie, or a conspiracy.  The entirety of the movie was spent leading up to the ending which was very subdued and kind of disappointing.  So if you are looking for a slasher movie with lots of snow go for it but I didn't think it was really worth it.
