3 stars (Good Enough) Minor incident on ski field collapses fragile security cocoon around protagonists and forces re-examination of self image and interpersonal relationships. It's all engagingly trivial, like those old British TV kitchen sink dramas from the 1960's. ~Anon
4 stars (Very Good) ~Regando
2 stars (Good Try) It starts well courtesy of an avalanche but the same then bogs down the screenplay to such an extent you are wishing for a second one to finish things off. ~Tubbs
