      Luke Y. Thompson New Times Even members of Bruce Campbell's rabid cult following will probably want to wait for this one as a cheap rental. Rated: 2/5 Apr 7, 2004 Full Review Rob Blackwelder SPLICEDWire Rated: 3/4 Jun 25, 2001 Full Review Eric Monder Film Journal International Consistently lighthearted and amusing, but rarely takes full advantage of its setting or subject matter.

      Audience Member Bruce Campbell in a French movie, what more can you ask for? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Okay, let's face facts here, if you don't NORMALLY watch French films and you're only renting this because you're a Bruce Campbell fan, you're going to hate THE ICE RINK. Fortunately for me (although I did rent this because of Campbell) I've logged many hours watching all types of foreign films so the fact that his screen time is limited didn't completely ruin film for me. (He does have a great entrance though--they can't get the door of his car open, so they have to drag him out the window which only opens halfway.) This isn't a romantic comedy, as someone else pointed out, it's a film about making a film, and while it isn't as outrageouly hilarious as another French film on the same subject called LET'S MAKE A DIRTY MOVIE, THE ICE RINK still made me laugh out loud several times and that's good enough for me.
