ALPHA is a good Prehistoric survival & coming of age tale. The setting is gorgeous, with scenes near the edge of a massive cliff, & an expansive mountain range that will make your jaw drop. It's worthy of the 3D/IMAX upgrade, to truely get that hanging off the edge of the world feeling. Slowly paced, you may need a soda for this one. Don't expect many jokes, as there wasn't much to laugh about 13,000 B.C. The action is brutal, with certain death at every corner, truely an "Eat or be Eaten" period. The human tribe has a rich culture & speaks in their native dialect, giving an authentic early man feel, so be prepared to read subtitles. Alpha is a plausible scenario of how the bond between man and wolf came to be. You'll leave feeling cold from the over-abundant snow, but warmed on the inside from the overflowing love. Nothing more after the credits start. I give this journey an "Eat Your Heart Out Natty Gann" rating.
