Christmas Icetastrophe (2014 TV Movie)
1/10
Plot less, nonsensical piece of unrealistic garbage with terrible special effects.

Warning: Spoilers
This movie will honestly leave you wondering why anyone would ever look at this as a finished piece of film.

First of all, lets talk about the title, "Icetastrophe" .....? Is that really the only title a group of adults could come up with? You could have named it "Cold at Christmas" or "The Mysterious Meteor" or literally ANYTHING would have been better than "Icetastrophe".

The plot is very underwhelming with actors who look almost as disappointed to be in this movie, as I looked while watching it. There is pointless and ridiculous flash freezing of random people, who happen to be standing ONLY steps away from other people who are miraculously untouched by the cold. Pieces of meteor keep falling and somehow slicing through cops, which would have been funny, had it not been so sad that the movie was really that level of unrealistic and stupid.

The way in which the plot and dialogue describe the meteors state and behavior is in no way possible... nor is it even likely in reality for a meteor to ever behave that way! It's as though a child with no understanding of physics or astronomy, wrote the entire plot and then, directed the movie, from the point of view of a very small, very male , child like mind.

The entire movie is completely cliché and predictable right down to the little love bird teenagers getting a stupid, yet happy ending.

The one good thing I can say about this movie, and probably the only reason I watched it, is because the protagonist/ lead character actor, was very attractive.

In closing, I honestly think this movie would have made a great parody disaster movie, had the actors been allowed to actually express in their dialogue, how terrible they truly thought the plot was, maybe throwing in a few jokes or some satire. The sad thing is, they actually meant us to take it seriously.
