This was a dreadful film. From the title I was expecting a disaster movie, but what I got was some dull drama about a pair of competitive skiers who decide to tackle one of the most dangerous slopes in the world. Aside from the Alaskan locales, this has very few elements of interest, and at least half the running time seems to be padded out with stock shots of repetitive skiing footage.If the director and writers were trying to put across the magic and excitement of the sport then they didn't do a very good job because this is sleep-inducing. A few old and tired faces prop up the cast, including a here-and-there Michael Madsen, a lazy Robert Carradine, and an unusually charismatic Luke Goss. Eric Lively is a block of wood as the lead, and the only one worse than him is his co-star Kellan Lutz, later to star in the likes of THE EXPENDABLES 3 and THE LEGEND OF HERCULES.

I don't get it,, once again the majority of film goers and reviewers miss the entire point of this movie,, this didn't have a Hollywood budget. I don't think the directors intended on this to be a Cinematic Masterpiece or win an Academy Award. so now that we are on the same page, let me begin by saying, the scenery in the movie was awesome,, the premise, where you have a mountain that is yet to be tamed,, yeah you have some fool hardy kids try to do stuff that would get them killed and stuff , but you only live once,, kinda reminds me of the winter X games don't it. I watched it just to see Michael Madsen,, he wasn't bad in the picture nor impressive. just middle of the road. I liked the skiing and snowboarding scenes. all of the angles and speed that is common to the sport. I thought this was a decent action movie, with some suspense in it also,

I had high hopes for this movie. The cinematography is great. This had an opportunity to be a great film.Poor scripting, bad dialogue and second hand acting really put this one in the crapper. I think the best part of this movie is on the editing floor.The feel of the movie is very slow, the romance depicted is so boring no one in their right mind would put up with that.One saving grace is the sound track -- awesome music, very little good action shots.I will give credit where credit is due -- Very good photography and some awesome skiing. Very Amateurish for a movie.3 / 10

I joined IMDb just to say how bad this movie is. There is no plot, the acting is awful, and even the skiing is bad!!!It all starts after the main guy falls during a competition. Then he goes back home... Finds a old friend - she is obviously his best friends sister and of course he has sex with her. The brother gets really mad... However they still leave together to Alaska to make a movie. They leave to ski down one of the worst mountains ever.. The brother dies, the sister cries (but don t worry they get back together after the main character finishes what his best friend died doing, going down that big nasty mountain full of avalanches)Do not watch is my advice..
