Reviews
Memorergi good film but with many flaws
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Nicolas Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
AbundantDay Very slow, boring movie. Not well written at all. There were two saving graces for the movie. One that it finally picked up about the middle of the movie. Secondly, the acting was fairly good. But taking about lack of creativity. This writer must have never written anything before. I don't mean to sound so critical but I agree with another poster here. It was one of the worst movies I've seen. What surprised me most about the movie is that it was not rated, which I thought mean decent. It wasn't a decent movie that a family could watch. There were at least 6 F words and lots of other profanity. There were frontal shots of women stripped to the waste. That may be OK for the bulk of the population but it wasn't what I expected for a non rated movie. Do not waste your time on this slow, boring, poorly written movie.
binaryg Sometimes I get films from Netflix and I have no idea where I got the inspiration (or lack of) to rent the film. My renting "Cold Weather" (what's the title supposed to signify?) must have been inspired by the NY Times reviewer Manohla Dargis whose opinions I've come to trust. Well I think I have to reevaluate my Dargis trust factor. There are several other "professional" reviewers who also liked this film but for the life of me I cannot understand why.I like independent films but "Cold Weather" left me cold. It was like the Hardy Boys meet Portlandia without the comedy but with unintended laughs at just how amateurish this film is. I have a great tolerance for slow moving thoughtful films and with films that leave you hanging at the end but the four main actors seemed without talent and I got tired of scene after scene of sleeping actors and telephones ringing. If this film is your cup of tea I do not mean to offend but I will stay away from Aaron Katz films in the future.
marketsurfer I had to include the spoiler notice, but guess what, nothing happens!! Honestly, the movie just ends like they they ran out of film. Just when you think they might have stumbled on the first clue, the movie ends. That's it. The movie ends. Was there a plot? I don't think so. I waited for a plot, but I just got the credits. What a complete waste of time. For the tiniest of moments, I thought there might be a conclusion, but no. It just effing ended. In a parking garage of all places.Honestly, this movie is why Hollywood doesn't shoot more movies in the Pacific Northwest. Apparently, PNWers can't finish a movie. It just ended. Just like that. It just ended. I am so disappointed.
mets910975 First off..NOT A MYSTERY..I almost never post a review on here but I feel like I'd be doing a disservice to fellow movie watchers alike if I let them see this junk without fair warning as to what they were about to embark on...ITS SLOW BORING. AND to those who claim its a beautiful portrayal of the brother sister relationship? Hmmm I can think of ...ohhh...about 20 billion other portrayals far better for critical and entertainment purposes. Save your 96 minutes and watch ANYTHING ELSE!! It tries to be artsy and indie and also makes feeble attempts at quirkiness and humor but all efforts fail miserably...when it ends you will be left wondering where the money u spent to watch it went. Nothing but disappointment and head scratching will happen and not in a deeper meaning higher thinking kind of way...just plain nothingness
