SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Good concept, poorly executed.

Best movie ever!

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

When a town in New York is closed down by an unexpected snowfall, a "snow day" begins when a group of school kids, led by Natalie Brandston, try to ensure that the schools stay closed by stopping a snowplow driver by trying to hijack his truck. Natalie's big brother Hal is using this day to try to win the affections of Claire Bonner, the most popular girl in his high school, while Hal and Natalie's father Tom, a TV meteorologist, faces off against a rival meteorologist for weather coverage of the day's events......The only reason I even contemplated watching this was for Chase, just to see if there was still a little of the magic he gave us in the eighties, and early nineties. Well I can put your curiosity to rest, there is very little, but when he's on screen, the film is at its strongest.The rest of the film is your typical teen comedy. Boy trying to get girl, girls ex boyfriend trying to bully the entire town, and some sort of fantasy sub plot involving action figures, and Chris Elliott.Oh and of course, the guy who fancies the good looking girl, has a best friend, who is a girl, who is in love with him.Oh pray, I wonder how it will all turn out?.It isn't terrible.

While this is not a horrible movie, it sure was dull and uninspired--with very limp writing and nothing really to recommend it. Now the kids might have a different reaction, but my daughter who also saw it with me also felt the film was amazingly dull and uninteresting. On top of a weak script and totally forgettable characters, the sight of seeing Chris Elliot on a big screen with his nasty-looking green-brown teeth is something I cannot erase from my mind (no matter how hard I try). In fact, while I actually liked Elliot in his show GET A LIFE, since then I have really started to re-assess him in my mind. SNOW DAY and his awful CABIN BOY are making me hate the sight of him.This film is not nearly as watchable as Nick's later BIG FAT LIAR or even (choke, choke) GOOD BURGER!!!

This movie is very funny for kids and adults. It has the right story's to satisfy everyone. The characters are perfect. The good guys are good. The Villains are Villainesque. The Cameo's are pretty cool. And the snow is a fallin! I saw this for the first time when I was in 9th grade with my little sisters. Didn't want to go. Complained about it. Dragged my feet. Guess what? LOVED IT! Now I am 21 and just caught it on TV. I forgot how funny it was. I was laughing so hard I called my sisters so they could watch it too. Tomorrow I'm buying the DVD. Just good fun. Though obviously wouldn't be good to anyone who can't forget its a Nickelodian Movie for 10 minutes. NO TRUNCHABLES!!!!!! If you were never a kid don't bother...you wont get it. Go find something else to fill your empty soul.Enjoy!

I first saw this movie at my cottage in 2001 because my little cousins begged to rent it. I groaned because it looked like any other Family Channel movie with cheesy lines, etc. However, I was very wrong. I enjoyed it thoroughly. It was recently advertised to be shown on TV again, and I felt nostalgic about it. But, I couldn't help thinking that since I was about 13 when I first saw it, my tastes might have changed, and I would hate it now. Again, I was definitely wrong.This movie can appeal to any age group, because it has plot lines involving a wide range of ages. All the plot lines offer something funny and cute, even if sometimes unbelievable. But with a movie like this, you have to be able to suspend your grasp on reality for a couple hours.If you're looking for a good, light movie to pass some time with, you will not be disappointed by this one. I recommend it to anyone.
