"Against The Ice" is a movie that explains why Greenland belongs to Denmark and part of it was contested by the Americans. This is the plot and storyline, very simple. Ejnar (played by Danish actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and Iver (played by Joe Cole) were real people who embarked on a grim expedition in 1909 to follow up on a previous Danish expedition in 1907. The movie is slow paced but thanks to the cinematography it did not bother me at al. Don´t look forward to great dialogues because the most sound you will hear, will come from the wind howling. The acting performances from Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Joe Cole were very convincing as opposed to the unconvincing CGI polar bears. If you´re a history buff or nature fan, you will definitely like this movie.
