Snow Falls

Nothing about this movie was entertaining, realistic or even held any artistic value. From the very first scene, I was hoping for the quick end to every single character.

It starts off complaining that the girl in the front had her feet on the dash. "Oh. My. Gosh. That is SO dangerous." We quickly move to criticize the guy who isn't wearing his seatbelt. :GASP!: :eyeroll: Right away, we can see where this movie his heading.

From there it just goes down hill fast. When we get to the cabin in the middle of nowhere, the reaction from one of the guys when he learns that there is :GASP!: no cell signal is almost laughable. Right then and there you know that, from this moment forward, what you are going to be experiencing is life from the point of view from those born in the last twenty years.

You've got five "kids" (in mentality only - they are all adults by physical age) trying to survive in the middle of the woods during a snow storm with a power outage. Nothing out of the ordinary for most of those from my generation. We would fair just fine. You have a fireplace. You are in the woods. You have a gas stove. You're pretty much set. These "kids", though.. nah. They never once think to go out and get any wood that hasn't already been cut for them (three pieces). They can't even be bothered to burn the furniture because "mommy might be big mad." It's not even until mid movie that they think to light the gas stoves' burners... and even that thought apparently doesn't last too long.

For no reason at all, every single one of them starts to hallucinate. In the middle of a cabin. Bundled up. After only a day or two. But... yeah.. ok... I guess that generation might react this way to actual life.

The blonde girl is annoying as all get out from the very get go. This girl is portrayed as being this brilliant know it all, yet with all the book smarts that she spouts, not a single intelligent thought rooted in reality can save any of them. When the typical beta male is scared silly by a hallucinated skeletal hand, he goes and gets blonde girl to save him. From a closet. Typical modern story telling element where man needs woman to save him.

Last but not least... when the power finally does come back on... IMMEDIATELY the cops show up at that very instant.... for some inexplicable reason.

There is NOTHING... let me repeat... NOTHING about this movie that is worth watching. Right before writing this, after watching the movie, I saw in the Trivia section that it was filmed in "only six days." Yeah... like they say... you get what you pay for. The fact that this was filmed in "only six days" really and truly shows. DO NOT.. hear me well... DO NOT waste your time with this piece of ... yeah.
