thiago s @Thiagostone Dec 6 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Blobbo X @Blobbo Nov 28 Downer, aka I never Sang for My Ice Storm. See more Peter T @wesbags Nov 25 One of the best dramas I’ve seen. The beauty of the ice storm is that it sneaks up on you. The family goes through small conflicts throughout the whole film, but then at the end when tragedy hits all of those things add up to a traumatic realization of how lost all the characters are. See more Michael D Nov 9 "The Ice Storm" is one of those films that engulfed me so entirely that I felt disoriented upon leaving the theater. I saw it on a hot summer day in Houston, TX, and was so gripped by the story and the setting that I was somewhat disappointed to go outside to warmth and sun after being engrossed in the frozen landscape of the films (and the frozen lives and hearts of the characters). Ang Lee is a master, and he deftly captured not just a time and place, but an unflinching look at what can happen to any of us when we are rudderless and grasping at anything and anyone around us to somehow gives a sense of who we are and where we are going. The film's genius, and punch, lies in the fact that no one gets a neatly wrapped resolution or absolution. Instead, they are forced to face their emptiness and confusion with no real answers. The film may be set in the 70s, but the themes are timeless. See more Leslie G 10/31/2024 I read the book before the movie, and was spot on. Perfect snap shot of the time period - both in set design and in tone. Beautifully captured the atmosphere and emotions of a sexually confused, political, post Vietnam time. Heartbreaking yet hopeful. See more Josue R 06/27/2024 The movie has a really good cast but it failed to connect with me. I feel that without spoiling the movie certain characters didn’t behave or have the reactions you’d expect in very difficult life situations. Maybe that was the point but it didn’t feel intentional to me. See more Read all reviews
