Downhill

A woman faces the shortcomings of her marriage after her husband runs away from an oncoming avalanche leaving her and their two children behind.

This was good - keep in mind it is NOT a comedy. It has some comedic moments but in spite of its fantastically funny leads this is a drama full of poignant and painfully awkward moments. A remake of the movie Force Majeure it has an tormentingly slow pace that makes the 86 minute movie seem much longer than it actually is.

** 1/2 - Rentable

Rated R (for language)
