I really enjoyed this movie. It had some good thrills and BREATHTAKING special effects. I only had a few problems with the film, otherwise I enjoyed it about 98 per cent.
PROBLEMS 1) There was no need of the freezing sequences. Sure it was cool and thrilling to see things freeze up, but it was pointless. It is pretty predictable for Sam, Brian, and J.D. to make it back to the library unfrozen before they got to the library. Which would be highly impossible especially since J.D. was hurt and all. They would have frozen into a Popsicle before they would have even reached the library in reality.
2) A temperature drop of 10 degrees per second would mean that it would be 100 degrees below zero in 10 seconds. So Sam, Brian, and J.D. would not have made it back, they would have frozen. Because as soon as they left the ship, the temperature dropped and everything started to freeze. And it took them about 2 or 3 minutes to get back to the library. Which would mean the temperature dropped... 180 degrees. So they wouldn't have made it back in a lifetime! Plus, it showed that everything froze slowly, if the top of a building started freezing, it would keep freezing all the way down, that is far from possible, if something was freezing like that, it would freeze all at once, with the 3 of the boys freezing on the way to the library.
3) Fire wouldn't stop them from freezing. Fire isn't strong enough to melt that cold of air. That air is at least 600 degrees below zero by then, there fore the hot air would have to be at least 100 degrees hotter than the cold air, but that wouldn't work anyways since the cold air keeps freezing every second.
4) How come when Jack and Jason entered the Wendy's they didn't freeze? I mean all Jack did was light up the frozen deep fryers and they didn't freeze. They would freeze mainly because that flame is only hot enough to fry your french fries and chicken sandwiches when you go to Wendy's.
Otherwise this movie was thrilling and interesting and a break from reality. Of course it wasn't realistic, but movies aren't supposed to be, and it was not scientific, but it isn't school, its Hollywood. So enjoy it if you can.
