Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Neil Pond (477) for Parade Magazine (247) on 18 Oct 2017

A misfit pileup of talent and material that turns into one soggy, sadistic Scandinavian-flavored slay-belle ride…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Brian Orndorf (4,059) for Blu-ray.com (2,093) on 18 Oct 2017

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Jake Cole (292) for Slant Magazine (8,298) on 18 Oct 2017

The Snowman is missing so much basic connective tissue as to be rendered almost completely inexplicable…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 18 Oct 2017

The Snowman is reminder that movies are hard to make, highly collaborative, often chaotic, and hundreds of things can go wrong. Here, everything did…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Matt Goldberg (248) for Collider (1,032) on 18 Oct 2017

Despite a top-notch cast, Alfredson's spin on the murder mystery is painfully convoluted and thematically incomplete…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Rob Dean (54) for Bullz-Eye.com (1,091) on 18 Oct 2017

There is very little at all engaging about the film as it meanders its way toward a finish line that feels cheap, rushed and simply nonsensical…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Colin Covert (1,936) for Minneapolis Star Tribune (2,416) on 18 Oct 2017

It appears to be the world's first Dadaist studio release, an excruciating abstraction of a movie in which absolutely nothing happens…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Katie Rife (451) for AV Club (2,778) on 18 Oct 2017

The film, a slow-motion car crash of a cinematic mishap featuring terrible performances from normally good actors and a bafflingly half-baked…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Joe Dziemianowicz (76) for New York Daily News (5,623) on 18 Oct 2017

Roll The Snowman to the top of the ever-rising mountain of lousy movies with good trailers…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Stephen Whitty (1,794) for Newark Star-Ledger (1,745) on 18 Oct 2017

A frigid Fassbender turns his head this way and that, as if he were posing for a bust, and boy, this movie is one for sure…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Chris Barsanti (896) for Film Journal International (5,095) on 18 Oct 2017

Sorry, Scandinavian mystery geeks: The first adaptation of Jo Nesbø's popular Harry Hole detective novels is a bumbling mess…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Kevin Jagernauth (311) for The Playlist (3,871) on 18 Oct 2017

With some films, you can tell where one or two things went wrong — perhaps a decision in script, or a performance that’s off base — but…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Matt Neal (458) for ABC Radio (Australia) (677) on 18 Oct 2017

The film keeps you guessing by offering scant and unconvincing details, but the more it progresses, the more you realise it doesn't have any…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Peter Howell (1,731) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 18 Oct 2017

Such abundant talent, yet what we get on the screen is like a snow cone made with horse urine…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Roger Moore (6,008) for Movie Nation (3,875) on 18 Oct 2017

It’s “Dragon Tattoo” complicated, without that one writer who could thin the material out, discerning between what is important and what…

By Mark Feeney (434) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 18 Oct 2017

Director Tomas Alfredson and cinematographer Dion Beebe have given The Snowman a gloriously subdued look…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Glenn Kenny (1,728) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 18 Oct 2017

To top off all of the ineffective weirdness, the movie ends on a tone-deaf “got a sequel if you want it” note…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Barbara Vandenburgh (315) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 18 Oct 2017

The Snowman is like if aliens studied humanity and tried to make their own movie in an attempt to communicate with us…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 18 Oct 2017
