Overall Enjoyment: 5/40, Plot/Themes: 0/20, Cinematography/Direction: 0/20, Acting/Writing: 5/20 This movie had an awful premise, awful acting, awful camera-work, and never went anywhere, nor was it even remotely scary.

Easily one of the best original concept's I've seen in a long time and while I always knew it was going to be a fairly slow moving film I still really enjoyed it! Parker, Joe & Dan were all likeable characters you wanted to see live and the three actors were good choices. The film peaked at all the right moments, and while I think the ending could have been better it played out well enough. Overall well worth a look and will certainly make you think twice when it comes to chair lifts ;)

Rather creepy, quite predictable, pretty annoying as you find yourself trying to figure out how you would react yourself in case of this completely unlikely scenario.

My roommate told me he didn't like situation movies as we watched it; that made me laugh for hours.

This movie is often unintentionally funny, and yet its dialogue is, while stiff in its execution, remarkably true to life in its content, with characters wrapped up in self-entitlement and petty bickering. These two features made for an interesting experience, and while I would hesitate to call it a good movie, it definitely held my attention and made me curious to see how things would turn out.

I have a soft spot for Adam Green

Open Water for skiers.

I feel bad having to give out so many tips on how the best way to watch Frozen, and that likely means it isn't a great film, but overall, it was a solid watch. I didn't mind watching most of it, only that one segment in the middle. The majority, if you don't look to far into it, is tense, sometimes crossing into the path of horrifying. It's more psychological than anything else, and allows you to question what you'd do in the characters' situation. It's mostly fun, but also quite forgettable.

It makes you feel isolated on a mountain. It is scary. Very good.

Way to to get eaten...

This is a really difficult movie to rate .. daft lupine interest, some hammy and some decent acting, some rubbish, and some good script writing which made the bickering and arguments pretty realistic, a daft premise but "possible" ... and all in all the 90 minutes sails by in a really enjoyable fashion. Sure, it is "Open Frozen Water" but it never tries to be more, or have delusions of grandeur. A Plucky performance from Emma Bell too .... couldnt have been a very pleasant experience for her !

Unique concept.

Three supremely annoying college kids are dumb enough to sneak onto a ski lift at night, and now they're trapped on a bench 10 metres up, night is falling, and it's 20 below. Oh, and the ski resort just closed for five days, too. Not really a bad idea, but poorly executed (if I'd realised the director also made the piss-poor Hatchet, I probably wouldn't have bothered).

so they decide to go down the friggin' ladder AFTER one of them jumps to his doom and the surviving two freeze their hands, that is some self preservation instinct. perhaps if the main antagonist wasn't a pack of wolves that clearly wouldn't attack three humans in a row, but rather a man in a mask with a kitchen knife attempting to leap forty feet in the air, then this movie would have been entertaining.

Surprisingly effective little thriller. Despite being a concept movie that immediately writes itself into a corner, it overcomes the restriction thanks to good pacing and decent dialogue/performances. The feeling of being frozen is conveyed very well, as the pacing slows right down and music and cinematography is employed well. The gore elements were somewhat overcooked. And it does have the mandatory dumb plot hole which will have you shouting at the screen. "Swing your legs up, you fool!"

Not a bad effort with a few strange moments.

The gimmick here is that 3 morons are stuck on a ski lift chair based on a set of circumstances in which they all share some responsibility. Instead of considering plausible options (braid cloth strips to rope climb/drop, duh) they argue and cry about it for hours. Then one of them decides to do something really dumb and drastic which sets up the drama. This could have been alright with better writing. The acting was tv drama weak but not too terrible. The wolves really are retarded.

You had to suspend disbelief a couple times, but overall it came across as very real. Intense and harrowing, I was still thinking about it long after the credits rolled.

Well, nothing new, but the tension created can be a decent pastime.

Absolutely absurd. I cringed my way through the entire film although to be fair I watched this without knowing what it was about and the first thirty minutes had me expecting some generic comedy / drama. Oh how I was wrong. The film has a very basic plot, is a generic horror, features *absurd* events (one in particular) that are totally implausible as so much of the horror genre tends to be and has ingrained a permanent fear of sky-lifts deep into my soul. Characters were okay at best.

Barely earning a theatrical release, horror fans owe it to themselves to check out a plausible and original premise within the genre, and one of the best horror offerings I have seen in quite some time. It is an emotionally-wringing, psychologically-exhausting experience. Green manages to keep the story focused and in-the-moment. I was completely engulfed and left clutching my fingers together in suspense and shock as the predicament continues on a never-ending spiral of bad to worse.

They keep one main focus throughout the entire movie, no subplots, which is good. There are a few moments that are a little ridiculous that I would have written differently, but overall the writing is good, especially the dialogue. The acting is mediocre, and the directing was a bit too obvious at times, but it manages to keep a decent pace for a movie set in mostly one location. I like the conclusion of the movie, but it should have been reached in a different manner, the wolves are ridiculous.

It does have its intense moments, and they did a lot with a very simple premise. It just wasn't very interesting to start with.

It was OK, but not great. The first parts were ok, fun. The rest was also ok but the conclusion was a bit too easy and fast. Still not that bad of a watch.

Writer/director Adam Green has the beginnings of an inventive, frightening yarn in Frozen, but neither the script nor the cast are quite strong enough to truly do it justice.

nothing special ...

Unlike what many 'professional/paid' critics have stated, this movie is pretty damn solid. Well developed characters, good acting, adequate direction and a terrifying plot. The film itself came overall as very 'real', with real people, with real conversations and the possibility to actually happen. People who expect Hollywood-esque effects and an over the top plot better stay away, for this movie is considerably more low key, yet -very- effective.

Przyzwoity thriller

A clever idea ruined
