Snow Day is more of a retelling than a remake IMO. It is very light hearted and right in line with other Nickelodeon productions. Sure it's absolutely aimed at a younger audience where the 2000 version that is commonly being used as it's litmus test had a bit more adult oriented humor, with actors that were known for adult humor.
I watched Snow Day with my family and really enjoyed the story. Sure, life is way more involved when you are an adult but when you were a kid, a Snow Day was an unplanned "Get out of jail free" card when routine and responsibility got tossed out the window. Who better to enjoy a story based on that than the generation who still hopes for them every winter. (Or by your inner child remembering trading books and tests for a big hill and a sled!)
I thought the casting was great, the acting was fun, and the musicals that were peppered throughout the movie were right in theme. Except for the fact that now I am overly critical of pancakes for some reason, the only thing I got from this movie was a smile.
Take off your adulting hat before watching and enjoy this with the family.

I'm finding this quirky show late in life. Started watching at the recommendation of a friend and completely expected to hate it. The funny thing is, it is cute enough to get you to pay attention and the topics are enough to keep you interested. The show has a strong relevance that hit close to home more than once for myself and it made me sad when I reached the final episode. I rated this 9 out of 10 simply because the run felt like it ended prematurely. If I were to guess, either the books it was based on had been fully covered or, the series had difficulty with ratings. (There was a full year gap between seasons so it is possible.) The acting was perfect to maintain the feel of the series and it's off balance humor, the location was perfect to maintain the small town in the middle of nowhere, and the beaches and surfing were a fun bonus that made Lockie admirable and relatable as the show's lead. Overall, I recommend this show to anyone who enjoys smiling.
