Fire Ice Dynamite

Firstly, I must admit that my rating is based on pure bias. I've been watching this film on habitual repeat since I was a kid and I never get tired of it.

The plot lacks severely, some of the humour fails to make its mark and we are "treated" to a rather terrible song performed by one of the actors mid-way. Oh and Roger Moore seemed to be just there for... well, I don't know why he was there. But forget all that. None of it's important.

Why, if it's so bad, do I keep watching it? Let's start with the soundtrack - an amazing selection of songs that you can only find on the incredibly rare OST. And then the stunts - a serious amount of awe for the talent of the stunt experts showing off their stuff. I will confess that some of the lame jokes still even rise a laugh from me - as do some of the antics of the teams in the race.

So - if you want a fun stunt film with great music, this is an enjoyable watch. Bear in mind that those giving it a low rating have very valid points, but if you have any appreciation for a mindless romp, here it is.

I remember I had a great time in the cinema watching this "Fire and Ice" sequel. I certainly knew what I was about to see; Willy Bogner did the ski stunts in several Bond movies (remember For your eyes only). And that is exactly what we get here for two hours NONSTOP. There is everything: parachutes, skiing, cars, bunjee, rafts, skating, .... If this sounds good to you then go see this stunt show at a theater near you.

Sorry for this: I expected Moore... ;)

I actually was expecting an action movie when I saw Roger Moore, but it was easy to tell in the first few minutes that this was not a pure action flick. There's plenty of action, but most of it seems like they just let a bunch of (albeit) good skiers, kayakers, parasailers, etc. go nuts while they filmed.

The plot was a bit weak for allowing this kind of action to go on.

The biggest disappointment though was the comedy. In places it was way too much and other places seemed to not go far enough.

Anyway, it's worth a watch if you're an extreme athlete or like some cool stunts, but definitely not a keeper in my movie collection.

my roommate and i spent the evening watching this, and the stunts are great- the plot we didn't quite follow, but don't expect that to matter (we think the old guys had something to do with the plot). buzz aldrin's appearance, the musical number, zany mishaps, and many brightly colored costumes... all probably much more enjoyable when overtired or intoxicated

I was looking for this movie for 13 years. Somehow I didn't remember all the brands showed in the film but I remembered some gags. Sometimes it's just silly and the acting is bad but the stunts are the best I've ever seen.

Despite the heavy placement product, If you look closely it's about corporate companies doing anything they can to win. In the climbing scene you can see one guy drilling the dam to climb up faster and win...

It's a low quality movie but it's a better movie compared with most today's blockbusters.
