ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.

Konterr Brilliant and touching

Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

adellhammel Snagged this just recently from the library on DVD. I show it to my roommate, thinking she'll think the concept is good. She says, "yeah, this sounds good; let's watch. So we put it in and were immediately laughing about all the reality TV stereotypes they were using but got really hooked as the story went on. Not the best show ever, and there seem to be a few inconsistencies, but that's rather normal for most shows these days. It's certainly interesting with twists and turns both expected and unexpected. Kept me at the edge of my seat till the very end. I really wish there had been a second season made of Siberia.

Paul Denize The characters in the "game" all appear to be in on the story-line keeping it moving. So the parts they are playing as guests in a reality show are just not believable. They arrive with just the cloths on their backs - but continue to have wardrobe changes. They have opportune moments of inspiration that keep the story headed in the way its SCRIPTED, just way too often. It just gets too fake. A weak disconnected script that just has so many holes the characters themselves seem unbelievable, even the ones playing parts of embedded actors in the reality game don't seem real. Soon they are all just actors playing parts in a pantomime story. When they give their life story - it gathers little interest - its just an actor spouting a story about some fictional past. While this is true for many shows you feel they are the part - not just pretending to be. Bad script or bad acting? I think a lot is the former.

JennaSide I am giving this 10/10 because I was not yelling abuse at the screen for people doing dumb stuff. I enjoyed this a lot (far more than the Walking Dead of late).Yes, there were the obvious character cliché's, but the show moved past that. I really enjoy a show where you think to yourself "why don't they just do this logical thing" and then they do it!! This happens so rarely in shows these days. They also withheld enough info so that you couldn't know any better than the characters (SPOILER) e.g. Esther not really pressing helicopter button, which we didn't find out about til later, she was quite believable when she said was going to do it, and wanted to give up the show, and redeem herself, especially with someone being so seriously hurt.More SPOILER theory stuff..... I firmly believe that the host was one of the soldiers at the research station - the camera men kept focusing on that one soldier. I am certain that the cameramen were involved. Why else would the soldiers not have pushed them around, and let one of them run alongside filming as they dragged the cast into a line up. Also the cameramen focusing camera on the soldier I believe was the host - like he was ready to capture some drama. Yes, they were out of contact with the production staff, so they didn't know what would happen next, but they assumed they should keep the camera on the host/soldier just in case. Also: The fact that a cameraman was left behind at the research station and was allowed to film the perspective of the soldier shooting Annie. The only time the cameramen helped was to pick up the radio and give the location - this was because they had been out of contact with the soldiers and needed to radio in (knowing that the signal was being jammed and the only possible radio contact was with the soldiers).I don't think the host lived in the apartment at the end (the cast were looking at the owners photo's), but I think it belonged to a soldier. The host knew they were there because of the cameraman. This leads me to the one thing I did think was dumb... why on earth did they stay in the town??? They found the truck, and they were already at risk by losing time having to walk to the town. They should have grabbed supplies and got in the truck and left. Obviously Esther dumped the truck cause she ran into another option - e.g.a soldier she could manipulate, or... the cameraman/soldier who she had the liaison with back at the camp, or she got into trouble. The only reason to stay in that apartment in that town and be found by the host was to set up the drama for season-2 (which I am guessing will never happen). Lastly, I agree with someone else on the web.... how good would it have been if the falcon was the key to it all - the successful result of the experiments, and then they released it.

eulaliasievert WARNING: CONTAINS HEAVY SPOILERS.Siberia started out to much confusion on the part of the viewers; many people thought it was a reality show, and upon seeing episode 1, thought it was a "scripted" reality show. In actuality Siberia is a found footage sci-fi show that's heavily based on Siberian folklore about the so-called "Valley of Death."The premise is about a reality show gone wrong. Contestants think they're going to compete for $500,000, but instead are abandoned by the production of the show and forced to survive, while the original reality-show cameramen film everything that happens. When things cross over from survival to supernatural, the contestants begin to question if the reality show was ever really intended to be a reality show. They meet a tribe of natives, find a research base, deal with the Valley's strange supernatural inhabitants, and are hunted by a band of military folk.The show is filled with many twists and turns that seem to throw you into a pit of confusion. In the last few episodes of Season 1, almost questions are answered. The last minute of the first season throws you back into the crazy confusion of Siberia.
