Negative Positive
Title: Lame-O
Review: I saw the pedigree on this (Clooney, Sonderbergh), and figured the film might be a first class effort at doing a B flick. Folks, you've seen better on Sci-Fi channel original efforts. The actors are good enough - Ashton Holmes in particular seems a gifted actor trying to make the most of it. And Blunt is also fine, as an unsympathetic character, who you warm a bit to as things get chilly. But the real problem is the script, which goes no where, which is odd, given that snowstorm plus stranded car, with spectral things outside, is kind of hard to mess up for your average horror audience. Wrong. It's like the director went with an early draft of something that no one bothered to polish a bit, or even think much about. It's about as empty an hour and half of movie watching as I've had in some time. And I'm a fan of the genre who will usually cut such flicks a break. Not this time. Skip this turkey.
