This is based on an actual event. This is only the 3rd dramatization based on that event. The 1st was a low budget Mexican production that felt very exploitative. The 2nd was Alive, which was a slick Hollywood production that had narrative and casting decisions that, when compared to Society of the Snow, are questionable. That brings us to this telling, 30 years after the previous one. Everything about this movie feels more authentic and realistic. If you’re going to do a movie about a story that’s been told before, this is how you do it. This is a remarkable true story about survival. All those fictional storylines you proposed might well make some entertaining movies, but saying that this has no value because it isn’t some new action/adventure story is an irrelevent criticism. Maybe you should watch this before you dismiss it out of hand.
