Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA "Siskel and Ebert Fruit Cart" appears in the movie in reference to Roger Ebert's glossary of movie terms where, under the title "Fruit Cart!", it's explained that during any chase scene involving a foreign or ethnic locale, a fruit cart will be overturned during the chase, and an angry peddler will run into the middle of the street to shake his fist at the hero's departing vehicle.
- GoofsIn the last few minutes of the film the characters Stanley and Tiana are riding together within a convoy of snow machines when Stanley hears calls for help. To get Tiana to stop and pull over he mistakenly calls Tiana by her real name, "Tess", he says. In his next line Stanley clearly calls her Tiana as he should.

Featured review
Ski Patrol (1990) is a movie I rewatched for the first time in a long time in Prime. The storyline follows a ski mountain resort that someone wants to sabotage so they can swoop in and purchase it for pennies on the dollar. The resorts only hope is a band of misfits who serve as the ski patrol on the mountain for the resort.
This movie is directed by Richard Correll (Perfect Strangers) in his directorial debut and stars Roger Rose (Friday the 13th Part VII: Jason Lives), T. K. Carter (The Thing), George Lopez (George Lopez Show), Ray Walston (Fast Times at Ridgemont High), Yvette Nipar (Robocop), Martin Mull (Clue), Leslie Jordan (The Help) and Sean Sullivan (Wayne's World).
The storyline for this is fairly cliche and straightforward and reminded me of a lesser "Revenge of the Nerds." I will say the "Two-Face" character was creative and very well executed. Carter's impressions at the opening of the film was good and I also liked the use of the rubber band at the end. However, the majority of this film is more cheesy than good. It's too bad because there was a pretty impressive cast to work with.
I would score this film a 5/10 and only recommend watching it if nothing better is on.
