Alaska (1996)

Alaska Poster
Whilst it only has the 'kids' aspect of the formula, the film goes one better by requiring them to look after a polar bear cub. What's not to love about an abandoned polar bear cub? Yes, there are ridiculous implausibilities and you should not use this film as a model to learn survival techniques but it is harmless. The scenes regarding the plane on the cliff end can be a little painful to watch,, and not because of the injuries, but there are enough polar bear cub scenes to melt the hearts of the younger audience and may even win over some of the adults. Just don't watch it expecting too much.

Adult score: 3/5
Child score: 5/5
