Two kids in a quest to rescue their father (lost in a snowstorm) strike up an unusual friendship with a polar bear they set free from the poacher's hideout With the ostentatious "happy ending" the adventure turns out to be quite downbeat and unimaginative The idyllic Alaskan backdrop lends the movie its only saving grace All the same, it would help you pul! through an evening sitting back and relaxing in the company of your children
