What makes it different from others?

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Not only did we buy this movie, we have seen it several times now and it's all thanks to our homeboy Jon Jafari, imagine that. Jonathan made fun of it on his Youtube channel and we watched it, only to be stunned at the actual comedy of the movie. Not the cringey comedy that comes with a B movie, but real funny stuff. That's a straight up fact. If you don't want to watch this movie because you think people would make fun of you for liking it, just remember... Stay true to yourself.The characters were perfect. Vanilla (Vanwinkle) truly showed his acting skills in this movie. Kat was da bomb. Princess had some cool slacks and really looked out for our homeboy Vanilla's love life. Mae and Roscoe were the comedic duo who definitely improvised their lines and nailed it. Did they need a script? Nope. The bad guys on the other hand, not only nailed their improv, they hammered their lines. They were the true stars of the show. The kid, Tommy, was good too. Just thinking about his lines with Dick, er, Nick, will always make me laugh. We love you Tommy.The overall message of this review?Drop that zero and get with the hero. In this case, the hero is Cool as Ice.

I'm gonna give this movie what it deserves. I know most people are saying "this sucks" or so bad and all that but it really is nothing that makes it even bad. Yes, its boring at times but its never really anything aquard or cringy. It just seemed to be an average movie with an average budget and an average set of popular hollywood actors. If I were to give it any pluses, it had aesthetically pleasing camera angles and shots and had nice characters that didn't fit into stereotypical movie roles. It did of course have a lot to work on like characters jumping to conclusions or odd character lines but other than that, thats all I can say about it.

Wow, i'm surprised someone even green-lighted this movie. the acting from the lead actor is (of course, what do you expect) bad. the dad from Family Ties was fine and i didn't hate the boyfriend of Kathy or Kathy herself, but other than that, the acting wasn't all that good. i give it a 3 out of 10 because even though the movie is bad and the acting is just bad, just looking at Vanilla Ice is funny. from his awful hair style to his pathetic choice of clothes that he wears gives me a ton of laughs. one hat he wore looked like he had a post it note on him. his pants in one scene looks like a rainbow just exploded and he's wearing these huge coats when they are supposed to be in a desert. you'd think he'd melt (because he's ice). if you are looking for a good movie with a great plot, skip it, but if you feel like pointing and laughing at almost everything Vanilla Ice says, does and wears (which by the way, i did) then enjoy the movie.

Granted, I am not a user of marijuana, but I doubt Cool as Ice would even be enjoyable while high.This beyond weird 90s flick that thinks it's still the 80s was a hard one to watch. Being nice, I will say it's not even in my bottom 50 of all time, but it's begging to be in the dishonorable mentions. It featured horrible clothing, an uncharismatic protagonist, terrible dialogue and a creepy older guy/young teen girl relationship – at one point, he shows up in the teen's bed feeding her ice when she awakes. Today, this "innocent" scene would ruin the movie as it's nothing shy of pedophilia. But, oh, well, Ice Ice Baby was a hit back then.After a horribly shot and all-but endless music video finishes the opening credits, our gang rides into a small town and mysteriously ends up at Pee Wee's playhouse and the leader, Vanilla Ice's Johnny woos a teen girl who's already taken and her father's in trouble with his past in some failed and cartoonish subplot. Will Johnny take Baby out of the corner and rap her heart away? Duh, but it will cliché your heart until you will never want a taste of Vanilla again.* * *Final thoughts: Sure, I've heard of this, ever since it premiered, but never did I think I would ever see it. If not for the fantastic podcast, How Did This Get Made?, I would've always eluded it. Unfortunately, while I love those guys' take on bad movies, this one wasn't the best as the guest starred Vanilla Ice, so they – ah-hem – sugar coated their thoughts on this movie and made it out as a cult classic. Don't respect that one bit, nor did I think this movie was any bit a "classic." It's not even so-bad, it's good. It just stinks…yo!
