Negative Positive
Title: Awful
Review: I'm shocked at the number of positive reviews for this film, and wonder whether the version of "Jack Frost" I had the misfortune to see recently was a bootleg version, or a rough draft. Because it was unfathomably awful.The plot's inherent creepiness -- absentee dad dies, only to be reincarnated as a talking, ambulatory snowman who learns what's really important about life, etc. -- is matched by indifferent acting and a general sense of cheapness (from the shoddy studio set to the lighting to the Hanna-Barbera quality special effects).Keaton tries his best here -- he's by far the most charismatic actor, but he is dispatched quickly. You get the sense Keaton acted all his scenes in about a week and then did voice-over work for his snowman dialogue on a few off weekends. In retrospect, he had the right idea. Steer far away from this wreck.
Is the review positive or negative?
