Snowboarder (2003)
6/10
Nice atmospheric film

Contrarily to other reviewers here, I have found this movie to be quite entertaining, more than I thought I could at first.

Simply put, Snowboarder is a bare-bones story clothed in a happy serving of beautiful images, great sound, nice music and an interesting gloomy and cold atmosphere, in which silence is as important as dialogue.

There is nothing new or original to be found here. Snowboarder is a treat for the eyes, and for the mind looking to sit back and relax.

You can enjoy it most if you embrace it like you do with winter : you know the journey will take a lot of time for few action, but once you are back home warming up, you still believe it was worth the trip outside.

Basically put : check out this movie for the images and atmosphere, not the story.
