When a deadly outbreak hits the small Alaskan town of Nome in 1925, it falls to champion musher Leonhard (Brian Presley) to travel the 700 miles, across treacherous ice, to deliver the anti-toxin to the hospital.

Good for children - The Great Alaskan Race review by PB

Spoiler Alert
19/02/2021

I was disappointed with this film, partly because I had watched the preview. I am sure children will be delighted with the film. I thought it was too sentimental, and I believe husky dogs are very much working dogs and would not be petted. I could be wrong, though, in my assumptions.

How to sentimentalise Alaska in one awful film. - The Great Alaskan Race review by AM

Spoiler Alert
25/03/2021

Brian Presley shows real talent in reducing an intense true story of a heroic battle against the odds to sickly sweet sentimental mush - predictable images, wooden acting, and the hope that drone shots will salvage banal photography, ill considered lighting and a soundtrack of weeping strings. Add to this a High Fliers DVD with no subtitles ( it should be illegal to omit subtitles.... many hard of hearing rely on them).

DREADFUL MUSH TO MUSIC - The Great Alaskan Race review by JF

Spoiler Alert
27/07/2021

How not to make a film. True history sentimentalised, overlaid with absolutely relentless orchestral music which added nothing to the film.

Quite the worst film I've seen in years.
