Featured reviews
Even for low-budget Age of Ice looks poor, while it constantly looks lifelessly drab, has limited settings and has camera work that at times can't stay still it is the editing and the special effects that are especially bad in this regard. The editing is incredibly sloppy and has more continuity errors enough to fill a book the equivalent of the longest Stephen King novel, Age of Ice really has to be one of the worst-edited movies not just in recent years but ever too. To say the special effects are appalling is being too kind(like the editing they're some of the worst I've seen), they look as though the production team had forgotten about doing them until late in production and worked at breakneck speed to complete them with no attention whatsoever to detail, size, colour or blend. In fact, they even look unfinished and even the worst designed video game effects look better than the effects in Age of Ice. The music is forgettable at best and is poorly recorded, sometimes too loud and sometimes too soft, while the direction is flat and screamed of inexperience.
Age of Ice is dreadfully written and enough to make you want to tear out your ear-drums. It constantly sounded awkward and with a complete lack of depth or emotion, coherence was hardly a strong suit either. The story was so thin structurally, so poorly developed(very little that needed to be is explained) and laboriously paced that if you were sure there was not a story here you can't be blamed. There were so many scientific and logic lapses too, and very obvious ones most of the time, that it was intelligence-insulting and there is the sense that even the writers had no clue what they were talking about hence the lack of coherence. If you're looking for any fun, thrills, suspense or emotion, find another movie because Age of Ice is lacking in every single one of those things. The characters are so annoying and cardboard that it is impossible to connect with any of them and judging from the acting the actors sure didn't connect with them either, almost all of them delivering lines like they were in pain. Only the actress who plays the daughter seemed to show any signs of trying and even she wasn't very good.
To conclude, dreadful in every single way imaginable and among The Asylum's all-time worst by far. 0/10 Bethany Cox
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.
