Product Description

This wild comedy is an intoxicating mix of mountain-high hilarity and radical winter sports action! For snowboarders Rick (Jason London -- DAZED AND CONFUSED), Luke (Zach Galifianakis -- BUBBLE BOY), and their buddies, life at the Bull Mountain ski area is about partying hard, looking for girls, and doing anything for a good time! But when the town's founder dies, his son decides to sell the mountain to a sleazy developer (Lee Majors -- TV's SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN) who's intent on turning Bull Mountain into a slick yuppie ski resort! Featuring outrageous stunts by real-life snowboarding champions like Todd Richards, Rio Tahara, Tara Dakides, Devun Walsh, and Rob "Sluggo" Boyce -- and a red-hot soundtrack -- it's an avalanche of laughs as the guys do whatever it takes to save their mountain.

Out Cold, which looks like it would be nothing more than a spectacular series of snowboarding stunts, is actually a homage to Casablanca set on a rustic Alaskan ski slope called Bull Mountain. Rick (Jason London from Dazed and Confused), who hopes to run Bull Mountain, can't forget about Anna, the French girl he romanced while vacationing in Mexico. When a ruthless developer (Lee Majors, star of The Six Million Dollar Man) wants to turn the rough-and-tumble site into a sleek, tourist-friendly resort named Snownook, Rick discovers that Anna is the developer's daughter. Will he be seduced to the dark side by love and ambition? Alongside scenes "borrowed" from Casablanca, there's an abundance of high jinks with Rick's slacker snow buddies, cute girls (including Playmate of the Year Victoria Silvstedt), and some pretty amazing snowboarding sequences. Dumb but good-natured fun, and Majors clearly enjoys himself as the bad guy. --Bret Fetzer

Customer Reviews

Intelligently written stupid humor.
So many times it seems that the best movies fly under the radar. "Dude, Where's My Car?" did more at the box office than "Out Cold". There is something wrong with that. A.J. Cook and Victoria Silvstedt provide plenty of eye candy, but the movie itself is hilarious. Most people my age (23) won't get the Casablanca references but that's okay. Those who do get them will laugh even harder. This isn't classic comedy nor does it claim to be, but if you want a good laugh from a hilarious movie, this is always an excellent choice.

Funny movie
Out Cold is probably the best comedic movie that involves extreme sports in it. It is absolutely hillarious. Bull Mountain, home to many skiiers and snowboarders, is being sold to Lee Majors, a big corporate ski lodge owner, who plans to make changes to the mountain. Luke (Jeremy London) has different plans though, and sabotages Majors' ideas. This movie has action, comedy, and snowboarding, a best bet for any movie junkie.

Hilarious! Pure Comical Insanity! Go See This Movie!
I'm sure that you have seen the gut-spillting T.V spots by now. (The spinning car gag) However, Out Cold is that and much much more! The film centers around a group of friends who have been working on the same Ski and Snowboard mountain for years. Now, though it's being sold and they are the only ones who can stop that from happening. It does sound like the same old stories of the small guys stopping the big buisness men and it is. The way the movie does it is the orginal part though. You will be laughing almost constantly as the jokes never stop coming and never get old. The guy who gets spun in the car (I never caught his name because I was laughing too much) is by far the funniest character in the movie. Whenever you can go see this movie if you are in the mood for some comedy where you don't have to think about it for days to get the jokes.
