Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: Whatever you do, don't confuse this Jack Frost with the 1997 comedic horror flick of the same name (its tagline: "He's chillin ... and killin'"). This family film stars Michael Keaton as Jack Frost, an aspiring musician, loving husband and occasionally absent father. Frost's life is unexpectedly cut short by a car accident and a year after his death he comes back as--you guessed it--a snowman, to help his family heal (Kelly Preston and Joseph Cross as wife and son Gabby and Charlie, respectively). The sudden death may affect sensitive younger viewers but by the time Frost returns the movie is more light-hearted and the film's message is a worthy one. There's an underlying theme that supports independence, and Gabby isn't saddled with a new dude by the film's end. There's also a good rapport developed between father and son, and especially mother and son. If an audience can take that huge leap of faith to accept the premise (as youthful audiences will no doubt be able to do), this is entertaining family fare. --N F Mendoza Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A Christmas Gem for the kids from the Capra dynastyWhen Frank Capra directed It's a Wonderful Life a classic was made and whilst Jack Frost may not be anywhere near to this standard a 3rd generation Capra directs a very enjoyable Christmas fare.Michael Keaton and Kelly Preston shine in this warm hearted tale about young boy whose father is too occupied with hitting the big time rock and roll stage rather than spend time with his kid.However this all changes when the film takes a rather unusual twist(if not totally unbelievable). Nevertheless,the storyline has a warm Dickens type feel good factor and an underlying message for ignoring father's.Michael Keaton is polished in his role as the father of Charlie and Kelly Preston shines as his mother in a spoof snowman tale that is bound to go down ... Read More: Rating: - Greatest Horror Movie EVER!!.........no! but its really fun,Jack does not look like on the box he looks better! well the next best thing to a guy with a duvet over him, but wait till you see the corny death scenes with jingle bell rock playing in the background and you wont stop laughing, yes ok his hands look like oven mits and he bareley picks things up rather than things sticking to his mits with no grip. his voice is ridiculous, the plot is stupid, the acting is terrible and the budgets been spread out too much it absorbs into the background.But this all works to the movies advantage and the terrible script actually is a masterpiece, i especially like the kid thinking putting antifreeze into his dads food will keep him warm! and the kid at the beggining getting told the story ... Read More: Rating:  - GarbageI would have switched this film off earlier, except for the charms of Kelly Preston. I am a fan of Michael Keaton's work, but this was just rubbish, and I seriously doubt that it will appeal to kids of any age. Avoid. Buy "The Santa Clause" or it's sequel instead. Rating: - PantsWhen watching a kids film, firstly the kids must enjoy it and secondly you would hope the adults would have something to amuse them aswell. I can say that after watching this with my daughter it really has nothing for everyone. Its not particularly well acted and was so maudlin that even my daughter wanted to vomit. Most of all it is completely charmless - the real crime for this sort of movie. It can by syruppy old pap, but give it a bucket of charm and we all love it. This film has none of that and has the worlds least convincing Snowman to-boot. Avoid it like the plague. Rating: - A Christmas Magic re-done by the Capra nameWhen Frank Capra directed It's a Wonderful Life a classic was made and whilst Jack Frost may not be up to this standard a 3rd generation Capra directs a very enjoyable Christmas fare.Michael Keaton and Kelly Preston shine in this warm hearted tale about young boy whose father is too occupied with hittng the big time rock and roll stage rather than spend time with his kid.However this all changes when the film takes a rather unusual twist(if not totally unbelievable). Nevertheless,the storyline has a warm Dickens type feelgood factor and an underlying message for ignoring father's.The sound effects pan around the room testing all speakers and in time this will be a film played over the festive season.Enjoyable and entertaining harmless family fun. |
