Reviews
"So treacly and fake it makes you feel like you're trapped in a winter-wonderland paperweight."—Owen Gleiberman, writer for Entertainment Tonight2
"It's a bad film, yes, but that's not the real problem. "Jack Frost" could have been co-directed by Orson Welles and Steven Spielberg and still be unwatchable, because of that damned snowman."—Roger Ebert3
"Although it faces tough sledding in a crowded market of family-friendly features, "Jack Frost" is a slickly packaged and engagingly sentimental fantasy-comedy that stands out as one of the season's most pleasant surprises."—Joe Leydon, writer for Variety magazine4
