1) Boxoffice Magazine- A grueling, stunningly photographed story. (Rating: 90) Read Full Review >
2) - The Way Back diligently catalogs the outrages through which extreme cold, hunger and thirst put the body, and Weir's camera finds the terrible beauty in his actors' chapped lips, windburned cheeks and tenderized feet. (Rating: 88) Read Full Review >

Worst two reviews:
31) - His (Weir) hardship drama is stolidly old-fashioned, more extreme travelogue than exercise in visceral horror. (Rating: 50) Read Full Review >
32) - This arduous travelogue focuses on the macro (stunning, David Lean-like landscapes) and the micro (countless closeups of blistered flesh) to the virtual exclusion of compelling characters. (Rating: 50) Read Full Review >
