Stylish but barely mediocre overall

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

I settled in hoping to watch a soulful indie thriller and instead wasted an hour and a half of my life. With films like this you win some and lose some and wow, man, this one was a stinker.Guy & girl run off into the snow-covered mountains for a weekend of raw, rugged, beautiful nature even though they're outdoorsy-deficient. While shooting through the back-country on their very first snowmobile, off-trail and miles from civilization, Guy spots someone creepily standing in a clearing and is spooked enough that he crashes their only motorized way out.Girl is entirely unlikeable. As in, strangle-her-in-her-sleep unlikeable. And, once the creepiness begins and the baddies begin invading the couple's campsite, Guy irrationally runs off to be a hero, never to return. We're left with unlikeable Girl, for the rest of the film, being dimwitted and insufferable and, again, unlikeable. The baddies keep coming, there are a few jump scares, Girl gives about zero thought or effort to manning up and saving herself by fighting back against the baddies, and she fails to conclude that humping her way over the terrain to get home would be smart. Until she does decide to hump her way out, which leads to the film taking nonsensical turns until the end, when she finds out that - boom, in a schlocky twist I'd expect from an M. Night Shyamalan snoozer - the snowmobile crash ended up killing them both and the baddie is actually her guide to heaven. See, he's been following Girl until she came to terms with the accident and death, and once she agrees to go with him he'll lead her out of what is essentially a purgatory. And he's not actually the baddie, the baddie is the devil. Or something.So, here are my questions:1) If Girl was having doubts about the relationship, a burden she was so willing to unload on Guy in a bitchy bit of dialogue when things started getting rough, why would she agree to participate in what surely would be a difficult, stressful and uncomfortable weekend in the middle of nowhere, snowed into a small tent, with Guy she's pretty sure she wants to dump?2) So, baddie-turned-spirit-guide can cause the accident that killed the couple, but he can't get them to heaven unless they choose, under their own free will, to go with him? So... Wait... He's powerful enough to kill but not powerful enough to do his job which is "saving" people?3) Who heads off into the middle of nowhere, in winter, with just enough food to last a few days under the best possible circumstances?4) Why does the spirit guide think that silently staring at the couple from behind the trees is a good thing? You would think, in his heavenly wisdom, he'd realize that it would actually creep people out.5) How does Girl spend the entire movie crying, streaks of mascara and all, while never showering - you know, wilderness and all - and yet her makeup looks professionally applied in every new scene?6) Why doesn't spirit guide intervene when the devil terrorizes Girl night after night? Is he powerless to intervene? But wait, he isn't powerless to causing gruesome, deadly accidents.I think there were a few good ideas in this film, but I'm positive the writer/director would never stumble upon them on his own. He needs an editor - and if he has an editor, he should be fired immediately.

Right off I knew that there was conflict between the woman and her man. She was distant and the man was trying to energize the situation somehow. The reason for the conflict is revealed a few minutes into the movie and ties in later especially at the end. The scenery was not spectacular although I live near the mountains so I might be spoiled. However, the setting was just right for this kind of movie It did not need to be spectacular; it needed to fit the plot and. I believe it did. The female lead is not a likable person and this works well with the plot as things change. There is a French or Swiss movie I saw several years ago and I believe writer of The Frozen has seen this movie. They are similar but sufficiently different. I liked them both which proved to me that variations on a theme can be successful. Don't expect to be horrified or bloody freaked out. It won't happen. Go with the flow and you might find yourself satisfied at the conclusion. The acting worked for me. Obviously, others do not agree with my assessment but hey, that's life.I am partially deaf so I watch movies with the captioning. Therefore, my experience is likely different from those who can hear well. I miss the vocal nuances and pick up on other physical queues.

"The Frozen" is the type of movie that will test your patience. This movie will pull out teeth while doing so, because there is very little happening throughout the entire movie.If you enjoy winter landscapes and scenery, then you might find some enjoyment in "The Frozen", otherwise it is a fairly weak horror/thriller movie experience.The story is about a young couple that go out for camping in the wilderness during winter. But a tragic accident befalls the young couple and they find themselves stranded in the snowy wilderness with a mysterious strange hunter lurking in the wilderness around their camp site. As the temperature drops, things are not all as they seem in the winter wonderland.A story that actually did have some potential, but it just turned out to be a very long snooze-fest that dragged on for a very, very long time. Sure there were a couple of semi-interesting moments throughout the movie, but in overall, it just didn't deliver the goods in a good way."The Frozen" has a very limited cast, so there was a lot of weight on their shoulders. And I will say that the people did a fair enough job, although not something memorable or award-winning.For a horror/thriller movie, then "The Frozen" was surprisingly devoid of shock moments and scary stuff. I enjoy horror movies quite a lot, and this movie failed to make a lasting impression, and I can't say that I will be making a return trip to this movie, it was just not frosty enough.

A couple drive to the snowy woods to spend their holiday adventure together. After driving a while they take a snowmobile and go further into the mountains. Suddenly they see someone between the trees and after taking their eyes off the road they crash. Now, I can understand why the ratings are so low for The Frozen. It doesn't contain much action, no special effects really, dialogues are honestly poor and choices of protagonists seem irrational. However, if you love films like The Edge with Alec Baldwin and Anthony Hopkins, you will probably like this one as well. I love films taking place in the nature. They are simple. There are no intrigues, gang violence, corporate competition and cops chasing bad guys. It's all about surviving and this is what The Frozen is about. The couple has to survive in harsh conditions and they can only count on themselves. From the start to the end of the film I could feel the tension. There is hardly any music, so most of the sounds you hear come from the nature, which makes you feel on edge. The acting is fine. You can probably remember Brit Morgan from True Blood series. She plays a hardly likable character, but it's fun to watch her.All in all, it's probably not a masterpiece of cinematography, but if you like films taking place in the nature, you will enjoy it. I give it 7 out of 10 for the unexpected ending which changes everything.
