A sense of filmic movement is missing, keeping "6 Below" unremarkable in many ways, and its last-minute transformation into an inspirational movie is unearned.October 09, 2017
Given the story is based on reality, it's understandable why the makers of 6 Below didn't want to throw in embellishments, but a bear attack really wouldn't have gone amiss.October 11, 2017

It manages to hit the appropriate beats of this snowbound survival tale (digs ice shelters, scares off wolves, drinks meltwater) while also being incredibly dull.October 12, 2017
6 Below suffers from a charisma deficit.October 12, 2017
We're kept at a distance from Eric ... because 6 Below: Miracle on the Mountain isn't willing to give him complete credit for his survival.October 13, 2017
Stylistically, it's strictly made-for-TV trauma-drama stuff, but it's hard not to admire Hartnett's tenacity in what was surely a physically challenging role and wonder why he hasn't had a better career arc.October 10, 2017
Despite some appealing lensing and an edgier tone than a lot of Christian dramas (nudity, swearing, and in one memorable moment, self-cannibalism), this is a movie with zero subtext and even less subtlety.October 12, 2017
"6 Below" ultimately can't rise above the swelling inspirational score or the flat adaptation by Madison Turner, which mechanically pivots between the mountaintop and flashbacks from LeMarque's dysfunctional past.
