Recent films about Alaska

Have any Alaskans seen the film version of Krakauer's Into the Wild? And/or know if it was actually filmed in Alaska? What do you think?
For the record I hated the book and in general don't like the sensationalism of Krakauer's writing. But, whenever there's something about Alaska I am always intrigued. 30 Days of Night is also set in Alaska, but I don't need to see horrible violence. Plus, I doubt it was filmed in Alaska, but I am curious if the film depicts any Alaska Natives, as the parts of Alaska that actually have 30 days of night have a high Native population.
