It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Typical Disney movie trying to bank and promote an upcoming child star. As with all Disney stuff this is meant for the rich people out there. You have the nice clothes and settings. The movie was alright for what is it and again being a Disney movie after all. I have to say the production value appears to be above average though.I didn't even get through the movie as every scene with Dove shows off her bright red and puffy lips. Now I find some people like this and I guess it is done to sexualize her but did we have to make it so big? If you google her and look at the photos she doesn't have the puffy lips. The problem with this is, of course, whenever she talks it appears unnatural. To me, it is gross. The close up gives me shivers. Reminds me of that one girl in the Transformers movie that had such a bad pair of puffy lips I cringed everything she was on screen.

Once again the Disney Channel has provided us with a typical story of self-discovery, laced with conflict and the formation of new friendships. In this story we meet Kayla Morgan (Dove Cameron), a pampered snowboarder whose Father owns the ski-lodge where she snowboards. Also heading the cast is Will Cloud (Luke Benward), a snowboarder turned dog groomer after a particularly memorable fall during his failed attempt at the coveted Cloud 9. When it is revealed to Kayla that she only won a place on the snowboarding team as a result of her Father owning the resort, she turns to Will to learn the Cloud 9 to prove to everyone that she truly is the best female snowboarder around.Both Cameron and Benward delivered good performances throughout the film, though there were times when their chemistry together was not very believable. The entire cast, including Mike C. Manning (Nick Swift), Amy Farrington (Andrea Cloud) and Jeffrey Nordling (Sebastian Swift) brought this story to life in a very believable and enjoyable manner. It is a shame that Kiersey Clemons (Skye Sailor) did not have a more prominent role in the film as her acting was very enjoyable to watch. Praise must be given to the stunt coordinator Kathy Jarvis and to the stunt doubles who did an incredible job with the snowboarding scenes. My eyes were glued to the screen, anxious to see whether they would land their jumps or not, and I found myself breathing a sigh of relief when they did.The story itself progressed at a reasonable pace despite its predictability. There never seemed to be a time where the story was lacking or where the pace of the film was too fast. Two big thumbs up to the screenwriters Don D. Scott, Justin Ware and Katie Wech for penning such a captivating film.Utah, USA is a beautiful place and that beauty was reflected in this film. The scenery in Cloud 9 was incredible and was a perfect back-drop for a film centered on snowboarding.The ending let this film down in as much as it was disappointing and relatively anti-climatic. The film itself was very enjoyable to watch and I found myself waiting anxiously to see what the final outcome would be, and though the film was very predictable, I found myself disappointed with how it ended.All in all this was a very enjoyable, although predictable, Disney Channel Original Film, and is deserving of the 7/10 rating given.

Honestly, I liked this movie a lot. I mean, yeah, it was really predictable and I expected everything that I saw (Nick steering Kayla into the sign), but I have to admit, the movie was really good. When I first saw the trailer during the Disney commercials, I already wanted to watch this movie, so I was excited when it came out yesterday. Yeah, this is a typical story with the rich girl wanting to change to show everyone she's not just "daddy's girl." However, this movie was enjoyable. The one thing I absolutely cannot stand about this movie was the ending. I was on the edge during the Fire and Ice competition, even though I already knew that Kayla would do Cloud 9 and the Hot Doggers would win. Still, I was excited and ignored the fact that I already knew what would happen. So why did I not enjoy this movie? It's because the ending was absolutely horrible. Okay, fine. It was ABSOLUTELY horrible, but I really dislike it. I don't like it so much that I only gave this movie 8 stars. Why did I hate the ending? It sucked. The rest of the movie was good, except for the ending. They literally ended this movie RIGHT AFTER Kayla did Cloud 9 and was announced to be the winner. Such a crappy ending. If there will be a sequel to this movie, the ending of this movie would be alright, since there's a lot they could put in the sequel, like about how Sebastian reacts to everything. But if this movie will end just like that, then I hate it. The ending really ruined this movie for me. I was literally SCREAMING at the TV when I realized the movie ended after Kayla won.
