Loved it in the theater. Still liked the $1.50 Redbox rental tonight!

Watched it on my transatlantic flight two days ago. Having spent half of my life in a very cold climate, got a chuckle at a cold-induced pulmonary hemorrhage thing, especially it being played out twice. Otherwise, enjoyed it, might look at few scenes again when I fly back.
I've seen some frozen people, and I spent a lot of time running in cold including sub zero temps. Never seen anyone bleed out in lungs. Russian cross country and biathlon teams had a base near my town, they put on up close to 50 km in training. Cold air is a very dry, low humidity air, there is not much there to crystallize when inhaled, as I remember being explained in the film.
Doesn't read posts longer than two paragraphs.
I used to keep rewinding to try to figure out dialog, now I mostly just start out with subtitles or closed captions instead of trying to do without then adding them halfway through the movie.
Looking forward to seeing this. Will likely get it from the library whenever they get a copy..

I totally get your overall point but still . . . griz: http://gunwatch.blogspot.com/2017/11...ar-charge.html
Note that this particular Marlin .45-70 model has now appeared in 3 movies I'm aware of. The last Jurassic Park, The Kingsmen Golden Circle and Wind River. Interesting.

Deer hunters do. Or, the shape of a barn roof, but l know you didn’t mean that.
I think Lost is being a little critical about rifle choice. I grew up in rural West Texas. I saw many lever guns in backs of pickups and on ranches growing up. On ranches, they were carried in pickups for predator control and might be used during deer season. A large bore lever gun didn’t look out of place to me when Renner’s character was going after the mountain lion in timber. It certainly didn’t look out of place like a muzzle loading pistol on a modern day police officer.
