Critic Reviews

William Arnold

"Clouds" fills its exteriors with the glory of the Utah mountains and its interiors with the work of the late Hopi artist, Dan Lomahaftewa -- a pleasing combination that gives the film its own special visual style and magic. Read full review

Carrie Rickey

It's a comedy that knows that no matter one's ethnicity, human foibles, follies and hopes are universal. Read full review

Roger Ebert

There will be holiday pictures that are more high-tech than this one, more sensational, with bigger stars and higher budgets and indeed greater artistry. But there may not be many with such good cheer. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

The fact that it was shot at the picturesque Utah resort is a huge plus and the film is so unabashedly eager to please. Read full review

Merle Bertrand

The kind of film in which you pretty much know that everything is going to turn out all right in the end. That doesn't mean, however, that one won't enjoy watching this warm and fuzzy exercise in escapism in the process. Read full review

Tim Grierson

More of a Lifetime holiday special than a theatrical feature, writer-director Kate Montgomery's tale of love and mistaken identity at a Native American ski resort is too sticky-sweet to be memorable. Read full review

Allison Benedikt

I won't pretend there aren't moments of sweetness here--there are, aplenty. But the promise of true emotion goes bust with bad acting, cheap writing and false sentiment. Read full review

The main thing that critics, or so-called critics are missing is that this is the first film of its type to feature an all Native American cast in lead roles. Relax and go see this picture if it somehow manages to end up in a theater near you. It is fun and charming.
