    This could have been great with a little fine tuning, still effectively uncomfortable though.

    Someone seriously deserves to be flogged for this travesty. First, it's a needless remake of an INFINITELY superior 2014 Euorpean film called FORCE MAJEURE, which I absolutely loved. Second, how is it humanly possible to put Ferrell and Louis-Dreyfus, two of the funniest people on the planet, in the same movie where neither of them are provided a single inspired moment together or separately? It boggles the mind! The original source material beautifully melds dark comedy and intense drama that becomes almost hypnotic to watch. This is basically a below average CW sitcom rip-off that retains not a single shred of the pathos or heartache of its predecessor. I'm shocked that anyone in this cast would have wanted to do this movie after reading the script. Shockingly the two stars have zero chemistry and appear as though they can't stand the sight of one another, even in their happy scenes together. I was shocked by the banality of this endeavor. I'm all for a good dramedy - but when the movie is neither dramatic or funny, well, we've got a problem, Apollo! If you have a few hours with nothing to do, watch this back to back with FORCE MAJEURE and witness for yourself how the same material can be so drastically different in terms of quality and execution.

    Bland and pointless. A movie with Will Ferral and Julia Luise Dreyfuss could have potential, but unsurprisingly the opportunity is lost. Watch Force Majure instead, the film that this pile of crap is trying to remake for no apparent reason at all.

    I hate this movie. 2 wasted talents. Boring. Not Funny. I don't even recall if I made it all the way through to be honest. If I didn't it was because I could not. 30/100 F-

    The movie was marketed as comedy with two of comedy's biggest names. In reality the movie was a sad drama about a falling marriage. Laughs were few and far between. Not a movie I would recommend.

    Watched it for Julia Louis Dreyfus and she did not disappoint. And it was nice to see Wil Farrell in a toned-down character role, because this isn't really a comedy as it tells the story of a married couple forced to re-evaluate their lives (with little credible resolution) after barely escaping an avalanche during a family ski vacation. Apparently it's French film source material is better.

    American remakes are better.

    One of the worst half of a movie I've ever seen. Didn't make it to the end.

    I can't believe I've wasted 1.30 hours to watch this.
