Nice remake.

In my opinion, a bit better than the original, but I didn't think it was that successful. The director makes some mistakes there, which means that some key scenes don't come across very well. Also a film that tried a little harder to make a point that didn't mean much. I had that feeling less here.

So a bit more comedy. Not only the eternal man vs woman chatter, but also Americans on holiday in Europe. Makes it just a bit lighter. Ferrell and Louis-Dreyfus also play slightly better, so that the awkwardness now comes across well, rather than appearing to be poor directing/acting.

In terms of stylization, the film is also quite okay. Neatly depicted, good use of the environment, the soundtrack also contributes. I still thought it was a somewhat average film, but at least a lot more entertaining than the original. Although true fans of that film will absolutely disagree.

3.0*

Good film about a family on a skiing holiday who are confronted with a dangerous event. An American remake of Swedish film. It may be a bit thicker and less uncomfortable than the original, but still a good film. Some excellent dialogue and good acting, especially from Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

Not bad, but partly wrong because the behavior of the man (Ferrell) was not brought to a head. How many women would have immediately put the man aside? But that wasn't possible without enough (tragi)comic elements being added. Great actors of course, Dreyfus (Seinfeld) and Ferrell who have made their mark in comedy. I have a soft spot for both.
