Mike S A charming and funny Disney movie from the early 70’s. Highly recommended for fans of Disney with Dean Jones. A family inherits an old dilapidated hotel in Colorado and their efforts to turn it into a successful ski lodge. Fun family fare with a fun story! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review Dale R A goofball comedy starring Dean Jones as a New Yorker who inherits a Colorado hotel from his Uncle. Knowing the premise of the movie before watching it, I was looking forward to the story. I was disappointed that most of the time was spent on screwball comedy and slapstick instead of character development and the family working together to fix up the hotel. They get into financial trouble and instead of earning the money they get by through a legal technicality that seems to be tacked on at the end. The ending ls lame and a half. Dean Jones again plays a good goofball comedy lead, he seems typecast at this point. There is a subplot with the daughter falling for a local duffus that goes nowhere. If you’re in the mood for a screwball comedy this one will fit the bill.

Smartly and quickly paced, with a charming cast of Disney regulars. It leaves you with a smile.

Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Na vibe Disney dos anos 70, mais uma delicinha da "Sessão da Tarde" ensolarada, a tradução do título nada propícia, mas o filme bem gostosinho, uma família fofa, amorosa, esperançosa e animada, um hotel no meio do nada no gelo, dois ajudantes mais que desajeitados, ingredientes delicinha para uma comédia aventureira familiar deliciosa de assistir… Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review r 9 Starts off better than it finishes, but 'Snowball Express' is still a fairly fun watch. Dean Jones (Johnny) is once again the best actor on display, though Harry Morgan (Jesse) runs him relatively close. Keenan Wynn is alright as Ridgeway, though I'm not a huge fan of Wynn's - which isn't good given he basically plays the same type of character over and over. The premise and how it progresses is fine - could've been greater, could've been worse. It's not as funny as I would've predicted/how the film thinks it is, but there are one or two decent gags worthy of a chuckle. Nothing spectacular, probably worth a view to see if you like it though.
