Watch out for yellow snow

You have probably already seen the best scene from this movie. It's the one in the trailer where three scruffy guys shove their passed out drunk friend in the driver's seat of a car, spin it in the snow and scream -- waking the drunk guy to frantically spin the wheel. Yeah that was funny. I wonder how many of you will try that prank this winter. \nWith the help of the rest of the trailer, you probably have the movie figured out. Bull Mountain is a ski town with 20-something-beer-drinking-snowboarding-lazy-guy roughness around its edges. Rick (Jason London) is still hung up on Anna, a French girl he met in Cancun (Caroline Dhavernas), and still freaks out when "their song" is played (Weezer's "Island in the Sun"). John Majors (Lee Majors) is a cowboy-hat-wearing prospecteer who dreams of latte and matching blue and gold ski outfits for his future employees, and who happens to have a daughter who's a Weezer fan. For the rest of the movie, Rick's friends worry about the mountain while he tries to steal Anna from her fiance. (But we'll always have Cancun!)\nAs you can imagine, the rest of the movie deals with sex jokes, beer, pranks and a blonde headed, large chested bimbo with an accent (Majors's stepdaughter). Tasteless, no doubt, but occasionally amusing. Jenny (A.J. Cook) is one of the most likeable characters, who doesn't stand for Rick's wishywashy moody boy stuff and can hold her beer and board as well as the rest of the guys. \nAt any rate, with slapstick comedy, a token black guy, a predictable plot and a gooey ending, this movie isn't spectacular. It's a teen flick with drinking and snowboards. And while some of the tearing down the mountain is cool, it becomes overkill and the scenes are backed by typical pop/modern rock songs. Here was an opportunity to put some good fast paced rock or punk in a movie blown to bits. \n"Out Cold"'s snow only sparkles with Generation X marketing. Rent it for some easy laughs if you are bored, but don't waste too much money.
