1/10
Oh dear lord, this one was a chore to watch
7 December 2020
Considering the first two were both box office hits, it's no surprise Disney revived the series for a third film. However, it certainly proves to not only be unnecessary- but incredibly cringeworthy, lifeless, and overdone. This is a really hard movie for me to watch, mainly because of Martin Short's Jack Frost. I respect Short as a comedian, but by God is he awful in this film. Not only is he overacting every single line and gesture on screen, but he also is single-handedly the most annoying character I have ever seen on screen. There is no magic in this film, and I don't mean literally, but rather the feeling the other two brought with them is simply gone. Its charm, evaporated for ironically the same subplot the film chose to pursue- that being- making the north pole a place for nothing but money. Tim Allen has also lost his charm in this film, he tries so hard, but everything he does falls rather flat. When reverted back to his original form, he is a bit more tolerable, but the script and plot throughout don't make it any easier to enjoy. Speaking of plot, this film goes nowhere and everywhere at once, which not only is frustrating, repetitive, and hard to watch, but also just what was the point? It had no point, no message, and it was quite intolerable to watch- not to mention very lazy. In the end, I would be totally fine never setting my eyes on a single moment of this film ever again. It's a disgrace to the first two, which were not necessarily great to begin with, and it's a disgrace to film in general, as it is easily one of the worst sequels I have ever seen.

My Rating: 1/10.
