Plot: Well... this terrorist organization decides it'd be a good idea to take over a, uh, ski resort. Then one ski patrol guy (whos dad & girlfriend just happen to be there) snaps into rambo mode and tries reclaiming the resort. He stealthily works his way down the mountain and into the restaurant where the terrorists are holding the skiers. He comes in through the kitchen, and sees a plate of food. Hmmm.. decisions decisions, does he continue working towards the restaurant, or does he stop and grap a handful of food...? well, he must not have eaten in three days, so he grabs some food, knocks over the plate which alerts one of the guards.. bah. what a dumb way to advance the plot. The gaurd graps him and brings him into the holding area, where his g/f(who I thought was his mom at first) runs up and hugs him(awwww). He escapes somehow and ends up thwarting the terrorst's plans, there's a shocker.
 : It's funny. Not funny because they tried to make it funny, it's supposed to be an action flick. It's funny because it's so pathetic, the acting is so bad, and there are some really stupid scenes that are supposed to be thrilling, but just end up being comic relief.
 : An unthrilling scene where the ski patrol is snowboarding down the hill followed by gun-totin "expert" terrorists, who can't seem to shoot him even though they're less than 10 feet away. He gets away by doing some tricks off ramps. (yea tricks, like nose grabs and stuff) A snowmobile explodes like a half ton a dynamite, uhhh, the terrorists who couldnt hit the snowboarder 2 feet in front of em, miraculously hit a helicopter flying around about a hundred yards away with a bazooka. The ugly g/f gets stuck in a gondola with a bomb strapped on it. Super ski patrol man saves the girl, thwarts the terrorists and lives to tell about it. yay
End: As you can see i wasn not very impressed with this "movie", which is why it's getting a whole one star. Only reason it didnt get a half a star, was because it was so funny to watch, funnier than a bad comedy.
