Review of The Ice Road

The Ice Road (2021)
7/10
Thin Ice/Plot
25 March 2022
If I understand it right, the Ice Roads are a real thing. The movie takes it to a new level of course. With cliches that will make you cringe and a predictable plot and twists that you will be able to see from miles away (no pun intended).

Still Neeson makes it worth your while - even when there are certain "woke" ideas woven into the whole thing. Still you can be inclusive and entertaining ... yes there are still flaws and the pacing is ... or rather tries to be as fast as it can be, so you won't be able to notice all the plot holes ... or ice holes? Like the trucks the movie would have to be on a steady speed ... not too fast, not too slow ... anyway, suffice to say that is not the case. But do you really care? Just switch off your brain and go along for the ride ... or do not watch at all. This never pretends to be a masterpiece ... but it is well shot, what more do you need?
