Age of Ice

I was lulled into a false sense of security after watching 100 DEGREES BELOW ZERO and AIRPLANE VS VOLCANO, two Asylum-made disaster movies that turned out to be relatively entertaining given the paucity of their budgets. I was expecting more of the same in AGE OF ICE, a disaster flick in which mankind is threatened by a new ice age, but what I got was one of the worst films imaginable.

This is a truly horrible movie and I can't think of a single decent thing to say about it. Gone are the cheesy, over the top effects of the other movies in favour of having a bunch of characters wandering aimlessly through a snowy field. The script was written by somebody with a tin ear, somebody who manages to create a bunch of the most annoying characters and plonk them into the dumbest situations imaginable.

Seriously, these are people you'd never want to go on holiday with. The American characters are racist and obnoxious and the foreigners are just there to get wiped out (apart from the 'token' guy, a decent Jordanian). The character of the wife was the most horrible of the lot, I was praying for her death throughout but no such luck. There are no special guest stars here, just a load of badly-acting nobodies. Barton Bund (who he?) is particularly wooden.

AGE OF ICE's storyline goes nowhere and none of the action has impact or drama. It's just silliness after silliness. Watch out for the worst car accident I've ever seen on film, involving a guy spinning the camera to simulate a car spinning in the air, oh and two or three CGI cars thrown in for good measure. Godawful indeed and it sums up a worthless viewing experience.

It is definitely the worst movie I ever watched. I see better actors in the streets of Cape town trying to sell flowers than this lot. My TV games are more realistic. If I must say one thing positive about this, it's that the young lady in the movie that plays the daughter is the best actor in the movie. I think she has talent, but is actually sad that she acted in this crappy film. There is not much more to say about it.

The father is clueless, the mother is stupid, the son is a creation from the devil and the daughter is just there to fill the gaps of stupidity. The rest of the actors is support for this family with no real purpose. Its too unbelievable to be funny. I have never made a film review or any review, but I had to search for a way to warn people against this film. It is really super bad. To sum it all up I would say its the worst film of all time.

well where should I begin and I think its going to be very hard filling 10 lines. don't look for this film in the Oscar nominations. firstly the acting is totally tortuous and in fact unbelievable and the lack of a credible script is partly to blame. industrial light and magic don't have to worry about the special effects on this film overshadowing any of theirs this year, or any year soon. especially note worthy, has got to be when the actors fell down the side of the pyramid landing perfectly clean and unscathed, but the best shot was the little dots that was representing the actors descent. well that's about as much as we could take and turned the crap off, if you have say 2 hrs to waste in your life then watch paint dry and not this so called film.

I have always been somewhat skeptical of the IMDb ratings, and have watched many 5-6 star IMDb-rated movies that have proved excellent. So I was doubtful that WOI was really as bad as the 2.5 stars suggested - boy, was I wrong! This really is a stinker, the worst movie I have ever seen in fact. The people that are bitching about the cheesy CGI really need to focus on what matters - the best special-effects in the world count for nothing if the film has a plot, script and actors not worth a damn! The script is so bad that I'm wondering if this is not some kind of inside-joke as others have suggested. Having watched the entire thing, I could pull the script apart line-by-line, but for what - suffice it to say that whoever was responsible seems to have suffered from attention-deficit-disorder.

This movie is so bad, it's in fact a gem of sorts - more people should have done themselves a favor and watched it in it's entirety - after all, without being familiar with what's truly bad, you fail to appreciate the really great films to the fullest extent.

Where to begin!? I was really looking forward to it. 5 minutes into the move you start noticing really bad special effects, recycled scene (in one occasion the same clip was recycled 4 times.) Scenes that completely contradict logic and the reaction of the actors is far for involving let alone believable. The story line has more holes than a mosquito net and side stories that never find conclusion leaving with a "Huh?!" feeling. Raining scenes but all the car are dry. Plane finding characters in a blizzard 3 secs after they throw 3 phones flash light on. Plane does "water landing" on a tiny lake?!?! The city in collapsing in flames but they manage to find a taxi?!?! I can go on and on! I really thought this was a parody of the actual movie. In all; REALLY BAD ACTING, FAULTY STORY LINE, SPECIALLY BAD SPECIAL EFFECTS. It's so bad it funny!
