Critics Consensus

A party movie that substitutes surfs for snow, Out Cold will leave viewers just that with its gross-out humor and sophomoric plot.

Lisa Alspector

Chicago Reader

As if to justify a serious discussion of this comedy before dissing it, some reviewers have pointed out that it evokes Casablanca.

Its only redeeming value is the killer snowboarding scenes.

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.

Rated: 2.5/4

The X-Games-style snowboard action is impressive and thrilling. There are some funny moments, such as when the same hapless dork is tricked into thinking he’s driving a truck about to careen off the road. But most of the humor is of the toilet variety.

Rated: 1.5/4

Film Quips Online

Although its main plot is a disposable low-rent ripoff and its leading players generally bland and undistinguished, there are some truly amusing supporting characters.

Rated: 2.5/5

Out Cold is basically Porky's in the snow, and it's a pale imitation at that. You can't go into this movie expecting anything innovative.

How absurdly out of touch 'verified movie critics are' lol. This is perhaps one of the top 5 most quotable comedies in history. This was outstanding when I saw it for the first time aged 12, and it's somehow even funnier at age 34. The gulf of an 8% by so called critics to an 84% by actual human beings that have a sense of humor is hilarious. Same bums that said Anora was the best picture of the year... lol what has the world come to.

Best snowboard movie there is. For the last 20+ years my friends and I have made it a tradition to watch this film at the beginning of every snow season. Light hearted and funny!
