Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

I watched Rage of the Yeti last night and found it really boring. All it was was a bunch of people standing around in the snow waving pretend guns around, along with a "yeti" made from the worst CGI I've ever seen. The soundtrack was dull and and the acting wasn't bad but some of the actors just didn't look right for the roles they were in. It was obvious that the movie wasn't even filmed in Canada; the actors were extremely under-dressed for the type of weather Northern Canada gets. Rage of the Yeti is a movie I'll probably never watch again, it was so boring that I'll be really surprised if it doesn't just fade away from TV in the next year or so.

In the remote Arctic, animated-looking monsters attack people. The white, toothy creatures are called "Yeti" in the movie's title and what sounds like "Yeren" during the story. Possibly, they are not really Yeti. Syfy TV movie filmmakers send a team into the region, led by muscular David Chokachi (as Jonas) and his likewise handsome brother Matthew Kevin Anderson (as Jace). The good-looking men are to hook up with the previous team, led by attractively tough Yancy Butler (as Villers). She has some funny lines. The expeditions were supposed to bring back, for some reason, an ancient book from a shipwreck. What the book, shipwreck and Yeti have in common is mysterious; not alluring, but confusing. Viewing this movie once could put you to sleep and repeated airings could put you in a sleep-like coma, so watch "Rage of the Yeti" at your own risk.*** Rage of the Yeti (11/12/11) David Hewlett ~ David Chokachi, Matthew Kevin Anderson, Yancy Butler, Laura Haddock

This movie is steaming pile of Yeti dung. The computer generated Yeti are hilarious. They look so fake that I laughed through every attack. The acting is even worse. None of these folks seem to be too upset as each of their friends get gobbled up by the Yeti. They wander off one at a time in a state complete stupidity. Flat dialog and poor effects add to the laughs. I actually enjoyed this film because it was so silly. If you have nothing better to do and are looking for some completely mindless entertainment then you'll find this to be a really funny funny movie. The female characters are all pretty cute so at least it has that going for it.

As far as SyFy original movies go, this one isn't too bad. Sure the acting is bad, but I have seen worse, sure the cgi is bad, but again, I have seen worse. I found the two main characters entertainingly ridiculous, and the whole movie had a very lighthearted feel to it that made it better than some others that try to be too serious for what they are. This movie knows it is a SyFy original and just has fun with it. The monster was interesting rather than just being another snake or crocodile, and the characters were entertaining rather than overly dramatic. Sure, it is a SyFy original, so it isn't some great blockbuster movie, but it is better than most of its kind. If you like SyFy originals, I recommend this one, if you don't, then yes, steer clear.And to the other reviewer's comment on David Hewlett just doing a few scenes to add his name to the movie, maybe you should look at the director listed for the movie before you comment next time.
