The CinePearl Take
Thorne’s portrayal of Katie is the film’s beating heart—her blend of vulnerability and fierce optimism makes the premise feel genuinely lived‑in. The supporting cast, especially Rob Riggle as her over‑protective dad, provides the needed humor without undercutting the stakes. While the pacing occasionally slides into predictable territory, the visual contrast of icy Alaskan nights against fleeting daylight keeps the narrative emotionally charged.
