Review of Snowbound: The Jim and Jennifer Stolpa Story (1994) by Randy P — 23 Feb 2013

Review: What a treat this one was. Snowbound is both a testament to human survival and a portrait of a loving family. Despite its age, this flick will definitely tug at your heartstrings, even more so because it's not fiction. It's probably only worth a rental, but it's definitely a little-known gem that is worth seeing at least once.

Content Concerns: A scant few profanities, references to a place called "Hell's Creek," and discussion/implication of a woman nursing a baby are as bad as it gets. However, some viewers might be repulsed by two scenes that briefly show a frostbitten foot, and the emotional intensity might be a bit much for some young children. Nothing goes past "PG" territory, though.

Score: 4/5.
