Critics Consensus

Writer/director Adam Green has the beginnings of an inventive, frightening yarn in Frozen, but neither the script nor the cast are quite strong enough to truly do it justice.

Frozen is a tour de force, not because of exceptional performances by the actors, but rather the outstanding directing of Adam Green, who also wrote the script. The script gave Green a limited area within which to work, and he carried it off superbly.

B-

Greens nifty framing, dawning-dread pacing, and fixation on corporeal deterioration proves sturdy.

3/5

Green orchestrates all this with some skill but not too much gore. A minor tour de force.

About as good as a horror movie about three people trapped on a ski lift can be.

3/4

Don’t watch the trailers that reveal entirely too much. Don’t read anything about the movie. Just see it.

1.5/4.0

Plays out like a decent gimmick that could have been fully explored with a 5-10 minute short film.

Love this movie. Only downside is why they don't figure out their options early on (before the hypothermia and frostbite kick in!). I have watched this for the third time after coming back from a ski weekend.. it's that chilling! I don't think you could bring more to this film.. they nailed a terrifying scenario.

Great movie! You really believe that they are going through this ordeal, and surprisingly realistic.

Interesting plot. But not fulfilled potential. Characters are not convincing and dialogs are boring. Wolfs behaviour does not make sense. Could be just 30 minutes episode of some TV show.

Inane conversation on a ski lift in a life or death situation. Terrible.
