Truly Dreadful Film
Redwarmin
This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Cathardincu
Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Kayden
This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Best friends Bobby Todd (Jim Carrey) and Jackson Reach (Alan Thicke) from small town Grimsby come to a ski resort. Bobby is not a skier and has dreams of performing on stage. Ronnie Hawkins and his friends are doing an outdoor performance. Jackson is looking to enter into the big race. He has to compete for the last spot.This is before either star gets their big break. The production looks pretty weak as a TV movie. Carrey gets to pull out some impressions. Thicke's character is an arrogant jerk. Ronnie Hawkins and his friends perform a few songs. The plot is a mess of unengaging characters. This is a movie to listen to some great old songs and see a young Carrey trying out some stuff. Otherwise, it's a bad movie.

This is absolute crap. This movie serves 2x purposes. One, to remind you that if you shot yourself with heroin, drink a bottle of scotch and allow someone to break a cricket bat over your head, you will still manage to write, produce and direct a better film than this. The 2nd purpose, should you have guests over and you wish them to leave immediately, put on this film. Trust me it works, my brain managed to exit my skull and hasn't returned since. I am not sure what the purpose of this film was, to serve as an advert for Club Med, a platform for Alan Thickie and Jim Carey, was it a live performance of a band, with the very occasional random scene thrown in?! I don't know and really don't care, this film is bad bad bad!

No matter how crap you think this film is - it launched Copper Mountain into a world renowned ski resort. Before this flick it was a single village family crap-hole. Now it's a 3 going on four village resort that gives Aspen, Vail, & Breckenridge fierce competition. If you go to Copper it's fun to watch this movie afterwards to see the changes. Make sure you check out nearby Leadville truly one of the best kept secrets in America. You can see Leadville on the sign at the end of the opening credits. Go to the Silver Dollar Saloon & Quincy's. Doc Holliday hung out in Leadville & it hasn't changed much since.Nonetheless this is a piece of history. The ski industry has changed so much - it went from cheesy to prestigious. This film happeneed right before the industry boomed.

This is most likely a Club Med infomercial. On the other hand it could be the left over plot less footage of some privately funded movie that sort of drizzled out as the film crew ran out of booze. I was also thinking it could have been a one day project, thought up during one of Chris Farley's coke binges. This movie also holds strong evidence that Jason Lee will get old, invent a time machine, travel back to 1983, go to Club Med while they're filming Copper Mountain, and start singing soul music.I love Jim Carrey, and it's the only reason I bought this movie, but he's only got like 15 minutes of footage. I think the movie was really about Alan Thike. Sort of a "Growing Pains" portfolio piece.
