FROZEN

 

Starring: Emma Bell, Shawn Ashmore, Kevin Zegers

This is one of those movies where you ask yourself, “Why?”
Not in a philosophical, existentialist, thought-provoking way, but rather more along the lines of, “Why did they make this movie?”, “Why would anyone want to unleash such a horror upon the unsuspecting movie-goers of the world?”, and “Why on earth would any sane individual willingly jump down fifty feet into a pit of hungry wolves?” All in all, not the feel-good movie of the year, everyone.

Best friends Dan and Joe decide to go on a ski trip, Dan’s girlfriend Parker tags along, and then 93 minutes of visual purgatory begin. They get stranded on a chairlift, and as fate would have it, all the ski resort officials suddenly take off for the holidays, leaving the three friends in a none too comfortable situation. Caught between a million perils at once- wolves, biting cold, and each other’s weary company, this is a story of human endurance. Except that the endurance is not so much on the part of the characters as the people watching. If this was a true story, there would be a legitimate rationale behind the creation of this film, but since this seems nothing more than the product of somebody’s disturbed imagination, one will be hard put to justify the actions of its writers, directors, and producers. I repeat, there is no excuse.

Verdict: Watch only for the purpose of marveling at its purposelessness.
