An average movie

Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much. Indeed, with such a title, you can be pretty sure you won’t watch anything oscar-worthy. On top of that, I have never been a fan of skiing. I mean, I can ski, I gave it a try a couple of times but I think that those holidays are awfully expensive just to go up and down in the cold wet snow. Still, it is not very often that you get to see a movie in this environment and there was definitely some potential. Unfortunately, they put together 3 storylines (the girl was a ace skater and will apparently become an ace snowboarder, the girl falls in love with her boss and there is also some class struggle) and none of those was really satisfying. Personally, I think that they could have focused more on the sport stuff. I mean, it wouldn't still have been a great movie either but, at least, it wouldn't have been something I saw 100 times before. Still, Felicity Jones was really charming and she seems to have some potential, she just needs some better material than this and, of course, Good Old Bill Nighy could turn anything into gold, no matter how dreafull the movie is. Anyway, to conclude, even though it wasn’t really awful, it was still pretty damned average and I don’t think it is really worth a look.
