two sides begin to fight each other and the mutants at the same time. As the battle goes on, Max is shot and killed by Krieger's sadistic female second-in-command Katia, while the mercenaries are quickly overwhelmed and slaughtered by the mutants. This leaves only Krieger, Katia, Jack, Valerie, and the cook alive. While trying to find Valerie, Jack is surprised by Katia, who tries to kill him as well. After dealing with her, he finds Valerie and tells her the truth of what happened to Max. The cook, Jack, and Valerie hijack a boat at the docks. When Krieger shows up, expecting to find a boat to get off the island, he finds none waiting for him. He turns around and screams as the screen fades to black. The film ends with Jack in a relationship with Valerie, having obtained a new boat so he can continue to work as a skipper; he also hires the cook to join his crew. Valerie, who turns out to be an undercover CIA agent, continues her work for the agency while traveling with Jack. Cast Production Uwe Boll gained the rights to a Far Cry movie from Crytek, purportedly before the game was released. In an October 2006 interview, Uwe Boll said that production on Far Cry would begin in May 2007. The film was released on the second of October, 2008, in Germany. Reception Far Cry received negative reviews with most critics saying it does the games no justice. IGN gave the film a 3 out of 10 and said "Perhaps one day game companies will learn to be more particular about the directors they choose to realize their products on the big screen. Fans of the game, and fans of movies in general, would be wise to avoid this one at all costs. Unless, of course, your purpose is to mock." Reboot In 2013 Variety reported that Ubisoft was developing another Far Cry film (based on the video game Far Cry 3) along with a Watch Dogs and Raving Rabbids film, this time, produced by Ubisoft Motion Pictures, however, it was later adapted into a Netflix series instead.
