Sample Reviews:

Glenn Kenny, New York Times – Cavill and Gyllenhaal never utter words to that effect — as it happens, a substantial amount of their dialogue is just quasi-homoerotic teasing — but when they pull off one extraction coup after another, you can see the satisfaction in their eyes.

Chris Barsanti, Slant Magazine 2/4 – At some point before the truncated-seeming finale, the film is just chasing its own tail.

SYNOPSIS:

In The Grey follows a covert team of elite operatives who live in the global shadows, as comfortable wielding power and influence as they are automatic weapons and high explosives. When a ruthless despot steals a billion-dollar fortune, the team is sent to steal it back on what would be for anyone else a suicide mission. What begins as an impossible heist gets much worse, spiraling into an all-out war of strategy, deception and survival.
