Liam Neeson’s latest outing as an action star, “The Grey,” sets itself up to deliver a very traditional ending. It then proceeds to deliver that ending but, somewhere along the way, goes off-road and ends up someplace less than expected. I am not exactly sure where that place is, but it is more memorable than where I thought it was going.

I am not sure what the limit is for the amount of personal interest one is willing to invest in a story about a horse, but I feel two and one-half hours exceeds it by a comfortable margin.
