Pops (Ray Walston) is the longtime owner of an easygoing ski lodge, but its future is put in jeopardy by cutthroat businessman Sam Maris (Martin Mull). Intent on replacing the lodge with an enormous resort, Maris schemes to get Pops' lease revoked. What he doesn't count on is the mountain's madcap ski patrol. As the crazed crew leaps into action to save Pops' business, Maris begins to wish he'd never thought of building his eyesore on their winter playground.

Elements of Madness

Sometimes, [a film is] merely to make entertainment, to bring joy (or mayhem) and then depart. That’s the best way to look at a film like Ski Patrol, harmless from start to finish, spreading a tiny bit of laughter before it goes.

Inane '90s comedy with strong language, lots of slapstick.

Rated: 2/5

So it’s not often I give a movie this low of a review but man…. If Suicide wasn’t part of the movie I’d say 3 stars, but that character alone almost warrants the movie being half a star… Such a stupid stupid character!!!!
