Copper Mountain

Jim Carrey doing average-to-poor impersonations and Ronnie Hawkins performing entire songs on stage just to stretch this incompetent travesty of a "movie" to a sixty minute running time. They should have just done it as a video sketch and left it at that. There is only enough plot here for about three minutes of predictable screen time. What is the point of this movie? Why does the band let some guy walk up on stage and impersonate Sammy Davis Jr for five whole minutes, and provide him with back-up music? Why is Ronnie Hawkins performing for nobody? What was Alan Thicke thinking when he agreed to do this? Obviously they didn't pay him much since the entire budget of this film was obviously about three hundred dollars. At least Jim Carrey has the excuse of this being his first film so he didn't need to care how stupid it made him look...... at least not at the time. I'm sure he regrets it now though. One out of ten.

This movie is nothing more than a pile of unconnected and hideously awful musical numbers with small bits of badly-written dialogue and no plot whatsoever. It really is a boring watch, particularly with Jim Carrey playing a howlingly unfunny straight character and, let's face it, playing straight characters is hardly how he earned his fame. The only possibly endearing quality of this mindless waste of film is simply that it was Carrey's first leading role, and with this as his starting block, it's incredible that he got where he is today. If you have a yearning desire to see this movie, I would first advise seeing the world's most eminent psychologist.

You just might lose any respect that you have for Jim Carrey if you watch this bomb, a movie that was REALLY stretched out just to make it to a sixty minute running time. At least half of the film is nothing more than footage of various musical artists singing their songs, and much of the rest is nothing but skiing footage. Sure, you can see a bit of a young Carrey showing off his ability to do different voices, but here it is woefully out-of-place and pointless. Even at only one hour, I still wouldn't recommend that you take the time to watch this snoozer.

Wow is all i can say. This movie was so bad it's something to be marveled at. I've just been looking at the voting statistics for old Crappy Mountain and can not say how proud I am to be the one female under 18 to have given it a vote of 1. I'm only distressed at the one male under 18 who gave it a vote of 10 (what in carnations!!??) making the average for under 18's a crazy 5.5

This movie is highly recommended as you can't help feeling privileged to have witnessed the worse movie of all time.

well i'm glad to know that i'm not the only one who got ripped off by wal-mart. hehe

anyhow i was at good old wally world tonight and saw this movie. The name caught my eye cause I actually get a season pass to copper mountain every year. So i was like i wonder if this was filmed their. So i read the box and thought it can't be that bad. I couldn't be more wrong. The only upside to the movie was the beginning and seeing places that I drive by every week during the ski season, and trying to figure out where they were on the mountain. Thats about the most props that i can give the movie.

As for the movie itself, well i have always wanted to see a movie that was about 15 minutes long and the rest of it is watching some musical acts that i have never liked.

If you need to punish your children force them to watch this movie. That would be punishment enough for just about anything they have done wrong.

Also one last note, don't let this movie affect the possibility of any trip to copper mountain, its quite an excellent ski resort.
