Wordiezett So much average

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Sam-953-169285 I could have enjoyed this movie much more if it did not depend on the premise that the snow plow guy is the enemy. The idea is that the snow plow guy takes away snow days by clearing the roads of snow, so he is the enemy. Coincidentally, he is not a nice guy. In real life, most cities have more than one person driving snow plows, right? And not all of them are jerks. So it was difficult for me to get into the idea of the kids doing dirty tricks on the snow plow guy.The romance in the story is too simple. There is not enough depth, it is more like a cliché romance. The writers try to complete the romance by making the boyfriend a big jerk and I think that was overdone. It made the comedy ugly.

zardoz-13 "Snow Day" is pretty flaky stuff. As the Nickelodeon Television Network's fourth feature film, this wholesome but prefabricated juvenile fodder emerges as tolerably entertaining comic nonsense with more than enough surprises and gender-bending twists to pass muster. Chevy Chase, Chris Elliot, Jean Smart, and John Schneider populate an appealing ensemble cast headed up by a youth Zena ("The Bone Collector") Grey and Mark ("Drive Me Crazy") Webber."Snow Day" covers 24 frivolous hours in the lives of the Brandston clan when anything can happen after a freak blizzard blankets Syracuse, New York, and school is canceled. Children cheer, but their parents cringe. The snowstorm halts virtually everybody except the Brandstons. They refuse to let a little bad weather get in their way. Consequently, adults taking kids to see this harmless hokum should find themselves occasionally amused by some of the insights and antics in this quadruple-plotted saga.The Brandston kids, fifteen-year old Hal (Mark Webber) and ten-year old Natalie (Zena Grey) occupy the foreground. Hal carries a torch for the school sexpot, Claire Bonner (jailbait beauty Emmanuelle Chriqui of "The Crow: Wicked Prayer"), and he believes that fate has given him a sign when she loses her anklet in the swimming pool. Hal recovers the trinket and bides his time for the right moment to return it.Fortuitously, Claire breaks up with her odious boyfriend, Chuck Wheeler (David Paetkau of "AVPR: Aliens Vs Predator - Requiem"), and then shows an interest in Hal that sends Chuck into a boiling rage. Ironically, the other sweet gal on Hal, Lane Leonard (Schuyler Fisk of "Orange County"), cannot get the guy to notice her, even though she is a constant companion.Meanwhile, intrepid little Natalie and her plucky pals struggle to stop the unsavory Snowplowman (a hammy Chris Elliot of "Cabin Boy") from clearing the streets so they can get an extra day off from school. Hunched over the wheel of his monstrous snowplow, nicknamed Clementine, with Trudy, his beaky black pet crow perched beside him; Snowplowman provides some hilarious over-the-top villainy. Snowplowman's reputation precedes him. Rumor has it that he assembled the chains on his huge tires from the braces of kids he ran down while shoveling snow.As meteorologist Tom Brandston (Chevy Chase of "Christmas Vacation") somehow maintains his dignity at the third-rated TV station in a three channel market. Lately, Tom has been wearing absurd costumes when he delivers his forecast. Where Tom's boss, Tina (Pam Grier of "Coffey"), gets the idea that clowning will help them topple their competition, rival weatherman Chad Symmonz (John Schneider of "Lake Placid 2") is anybody's guess. Tom sets out to expose Chad for the fraud that he is, especially after Symmonz takes credit for warning everybody about the accidental snowstorm.Although this potboiler boasts little redeeming artistic value, "Snow Day" qualifies nevertheless as ideal, family-oriented fare with nothing most objectionable than a fat kid that farts when he is frightened. Out of four stars, the above-average "Snow Day" scores two-and-a-half.

watjacobson This movie is very funny for kids and adults. It has the right story's to satisfy everyone. The characters are perfect. The good guys are good. The Villains are Villainesque. The Cameo's are pretty cool. And the snow is a fallin! I saw this for the first time when I was in 9th grade with my little sisters. Didn't want to go. Complained about it. Dragged my feet. Guess what? LOVED IT! Now I am 21 and just caught it on TV. I forgot how funny it was. I was laughing so hard I called my sisters so they could watch it too. Tomorrow I'm buying the DVD. Just good fun. Though obviously wouldn't be good to anyone who can't forget its a Nickelodian Movie for 10 minutes. NO TRUNCHABLES!!!!!! If you were never a kid don't bother...you wont get it. Go find something else to fill your empty soul.Enjoy!

silversparkles326 In my opinion snow day is the greatest movie of all time. It is the story of a group of oppressed youth in upper state New York who band together to stop the evil snowplow man, who is robbing them of their second snow day. Led by a brave young girl they stage a revolution not unlike the French or Russian revolution. Snow plowman is beaten, tied to a stop sign and left to die. This film was a touching and inspirational story of the power of everyone, and what happens if we work together to make the world a better place. Those who find it a stupid children's movie need to look past the mundane parts with the boy and look to the deeper meaning of the story. I hope everyone can follow Natalie's lead and eliminate the snowplow men in our own lives. We don't have to take it!
