Snow 2: Brain Freeze (2009)

Touches You

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Nick "Santa Claus" Snowden forgets about spending early Christmas with his wife, Sandy due to pressure at work. After a fight, Nick walks through a magical mirror and ends up with amnesia. Now I loved the first film "Snow" which I just saw for the first time and then I watched this one immediately after. Where the first one felt fresh and fun the sequel feels like the makers did not put much thought into the sequel. The whole film feels rushed. There is many things missing from the first film that I so wanted to see in this one. It would of been nice if the entire cast from the original have some part in this film. The tenants from the boarding house should of figured into this film. This film is family safe. Most kids might like this. Parents not so much. If there is a "Snow 3" please put more thought into the story.

This time it gets better! The new young Mr. and Mrs. Claus are still very amazing in this sequel, and they are clearly experiencing the same problems we ordinary families do, too. Domestic dispute opened up a new adventure, amnesia and wrong allies... Cavanagh is amazing and Williams is beautiful, and together they brought transcendence to the new Clauses. The sequel is heartwarming, inspiring, and lovely, and the ending gave a lot of hope and additional happiness - Nick's final "Yeah!" brought surges of joy to the entire world, I daresay. Marry Christmas to all and to all a good night, indeed. 2008 has brought the world a lot of wonders, and to close the year with Snow 2 - that was the icing on the cake, the cherry on the sundae. Thank you, Tom and Ashley.

Snow 2 was actually fairly decent in terms of comparing it to the hundreds of other quickly churned out, cheap Christmas movies that come out every year. The acting is actually pretty good with the lead giving a good performance with what he has to work with. It's the kind of comedy you would expect in a family Christmas movie but if that's your thing you will not be disappointed at all. I tend to dislike most Christmas movies that pull the heart strings and have kid level jokes but didn't mind this movie at all. It's a fine way to waste time with the family over the holidays. I wasn't even annoyed by the child actor which usually is a given for me. Good job!

I loved the first Snow. One of my favorite movies so I was thrilled when they made a sequel that thankfully wasn't awful. I was only a little disappointed in it and that had to do with how quickly and easily Sandy trusted Buck after everything in the last movie. They could have made her more hesitant for more of the movie before reluctantly excepting his help.I wasn't totally in love with the kid either but I saw the purpose of it. And Gilfred pushed the corny factor but someone or something had to give Sandy the answers she needed and how boring for her to just read the book.Other than that I really enjoyed it. Tom Cavanagh and Ashley Williams were hilarious. I love how he still has his Christmas oriented exclamations, "Figgy pudding!" And Sandy seems to have picked them up as well, "Oh, icicles!" When 'Sandy' is tinseling the tree in anger. I crack up every time.No it's not perfect but it's exactly what it was meant to be. A little romantic, comedic, make ya feel good corny Christmas flick.
