Critics Consensus

Weak assembly of characters and story lines made this movie forgettable and silly.

The List

The tagline to this family comedy is "anything can happen on a snow day." Proof is in the pudding as Chevy Chase, for the first time in years, appears in a movie that is actually funny.

A very underrated childhood favorite of mine. Has great storylines, very funny moments, great acting, and definitely holds up 20 years later.

A boring snow day? Nickelodeon can occupy the youngsters as they had captured their wintery wondrous imagination with the usual silliness of pointlessness building a predictable episodic snow structure, if it does not bore their target audience any further. Meanwhile for the parents and older viewers, they can still find little amusement over depicted weathering cancellations and Chevy Chase channeling a little of his Griswold persona outside of Christmas.

Mostly childish and forgettable though I did like Emmanuelle Chriqui (at least in the little they gave her to do).

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Very typical. Very formulaic. Not very funny. I could see how some think of it as a classic, but I can also see how everyone else on the planet would hate it. I've seen worse. Not many, but I have.
