Liam Neeson and the Movies. Now he's trying quieter films, and they're still no better. Because that's another boring movie in his career.
Maybe he should let it be.

Was it good? No.

But was it at least entertaining? Also no. The VFX are rough even by straight to streaming standards…

So, when is Liam Neeson retiring from action movies? He said he would a while ago.

The movie itself, very predictable and stupid, not the best kind of stupid for these types of movies. The visual effects looked so awful and unconvincing I questioned if I was watching a Sci Fi channel movie. The directing wasn’t anything notable and the writing was so horrendous, ridiculous situations and none of it was believable. I had a hard time finishing this one.

I can't believe that both Liam Neeson and Laurence Fishburne agreed to be in this.

'The Ice Road' is cold and boring.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It felt like the film took the easy way out for what little character development it had. Liam has largely been the same nice guy in a few films so they just kind of leaned on that for this film. Early in the film, within about 90 seconds, we meet the brother, find out he's mentally challenged, he gets picked on, Liam's character saves him...again. There's a Mice & Men moment when we're shown the brother's pet mouse, er..., I mean rat, and he luckily doesn't squeeze him to death. It all happened so fast it felt odd and I suspect it's only because of Liam's past that you could set up the main characters so quickly. Next, there's Mr. Goldenrod. A name choice that baffled me because I used to work for a large studio and know about script paper colors. It was just weird to me.
Then there's a throwback to a scene right out of Forrest Gump when he fixes the 'ain't got no gas' lawnmower and later reassembles his weapon faster than anyone else. In Ice Road, it is a different kind of motor the brother fixes. That's enough. It wasn't a very good film and as other armchair critics have said, it seems strange both Liam N. and Samuel L. Jackson said yes to this. (Lawrence Fishburn. Just seeing if you're paying attention this far down).… Expand

I usually like Liam Neesons movies, but this had to be one of his worst. First of all its woke, second of all the effects are horrible, and third Lawrence Fishburne is barely in it. Just bad all around, acting to plot, effects, what a wasteI usually like Liam Neesons movies, but this had to be one of his worst.

Это пожалуй худший фильм с Лиамом и Лоуренсом. Я на протяжении всего фильма ловил фейспалмы, логики в действиях героев нет, в репликах нет. Весь фильм бессмыслица. Голивуд, делай пожалуйста хорошее кино, тяже умеешь…Это пожалуй худший фильм с Лиамом и Лоуренсом. Я на протяжении всего фильма ловил фейспалмы, логики в действиях героев нет, в репликах нет.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. You don't normally expect Liam Neeson making bad films. The script is poor, acting from supporting casts pretty wooden. The ending punch so half hearted it was not even worth filming. I was hoping it will spring into life and kept watching.... BUT sadly not to be. I had expectations but its I have spent I can't have back.… Expand
