Christy Lemire, Associated Press: Basically a low-rent remake of the 1984 low-rent teenage sex comedy Hot Dog ... The Movie. Read more

John Monaghan, Detroit Free Press: More Caddyshack than Casablanca. Read more

Robert K. Elder, Chicago Tribune: Doesn't ever quite seem to elevate itself above an '80s 'youth against the establishment' genre film. Read more

Susan Stark, Detroit News: Read more

Gary Dowell, Dallas Morning News: Out Cold isn't the worst movie ever made. It is, however, one of the most pointless. Read more

Dave Kehr, New York Times: As in the old beach movies, a great deal of screen time is devoted to the astounding exploits of stunt doubles, who here are riding powdered snow rather than waves. Read more

Atlanta Journal-Constitution: Its only redeeming value is the killer snowboarding scenes. Read more

Bruce Fretts, Entertainment Weekly: The result is so derivative, they should've called it Eskimo Pie. Read more

Don Irvine, Globe and Mail: Funnier than Woody Allen's last four movies, more exciting than Tarkovski's The Sacrifice, Out Cold will play best if your first legal beer is still far enough into the future to seem a vision of the promised land. Read more

Carla Meyer, San Francisco Chronicle: When Lee Majors can steal every scene he's in, your movie's in trouble. Read more

St. Louis Post-Dispatch: Read more

Claudia Puig, USA Today: Even though no one in the film breaks a leg, Out Cold is as lame as it gets. Read more
