Critics Consensus

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.

Ed Koch

The Atlantic

Frozen is a tour de force, not because of exceptional performances by the actors, but rather the outstanding directing of Adam Green, who also wrote the script. The script gave Green a limited area within which to work, and he carried it off superbly.

Lessons of Darkness

Greens nifty framing, dawning-dread pacing, and fixation on corporeal deterioration proves sturdy.

Deep Focus Review

Don’t watch the trailers that reveal entirely too much. Don’t read anything about the movie. Just see it.

Rated: 3/4

Plays out like a decent gimmick that could have been fully explored with a 5-10 minute short film.

Rated: 1.5/4.0

Frozen is an expertly crafted chiller that will send a barrage of shivers up the spine.

I don’t get why this film is so highly rated I personally didn’t think it was that good. Unless you are a girl between the ages of 5-15 I doubt you will like it. Definitely not worth a watch which is pretty sad considering that a lot of Disney movies have been complete bangers. This unfortunately was not one of them.

What we watch movies for are moments we cannot necessarily get in real life; there were jaw drops throughout that made me thankful for the medium of cinema.

A taut, relentless thriller that keeps you on edge, driven largely by its stark simplicity.

In a simple premise film like this, you need likeable characters, drama and a good amount of danger, and I feel Frozen hits the mark on these. The acting is great, the characters are relatable, and there is some real moments that make you cringe with second hand pain.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

An absolute bore of a film that's carried heavily by a ridiculously unbelievable premise that is full of holes and inconsistencies. It's said right in the movie itself: "even the shittiest ski hill in the world wouldn't leave them up there."
