The Canyon (2009)
The Canyon Review
16 September 2011
Warning: Spoilers
*SPOILER WARNING BELOW THE 1ST PARAGRAPH* The one thing that usually bothers me about these types of films is the lack of reality....I try to picture myself in the situation that the protagonist is in, and I'm usually disappointed when the film sways from common sense, to sheer non-sense. This film is no different...

*****SPOILER ALERT******

Apparently this film is set in a world where the concept of C.P.R has not yet been discovered!!! I mean the guy wasn't even dead for 30 seconds before help arrived, and even the paramedics didn't try reviving him???????????????????????????????? That's a little too unrealistic for my taste...If I were in that same situation, and I had just "mercy killed" someone I was in love with(so that they weren't alive to get eaten by a pack of hungry wolves) I damn well would of done anything, and everything I could to resuscitate them like 10 seconds later when I saw a helicopter land!!!!!!!!. I understand the suffocation part so my sweet-heart is not eaten alive, but come on....as if you couldn't hear a helicopter coming for at least 30 seconds(especially in a canyon)?????? Then the Paramedics don't even try A SINGLE THING to help revive him!!!! I'm from Canada and I know our health care is a little bit better then it is in the U.S, BUT COME ON!!!
