Whiteout

Rating: 5.1/10

Genre: Thriller

Overall value for time and money: 4.9/10

The idea of the movie was good, but was badly delivered and the the plot was "insufficient". It lacked suspense, ingenuity and a punch. Weak in most areas, if not all, cast performances were mediocre... and that was about the best it could get...

Antarctica, a place with few inhabitants, is probably one of the last places you'll expect a homicide. The marshal of Antarctica, Carrier Steko attempts to trek down the killer while being haunted by her past... Well, that's the idea. Now for the plot and delivery...

*spoilers ahead* The marshal was portrayed as a weak and helpless lead and the "subplots" about her past and her "relationship" with the doctor had somewhat of a link, but was essentially irrelevant. Felt like the subplots were put in for the sake of putting them in... And the ending, supposedly a twist, was highly predictable and didn't have any impact to the movie. It's not even a thriller for me, because there was basically nothing thrilling about the entire movie - oh perhaps there was one part where the killer appeared from behind and tried to kill the marshal.

One of the worst movies with Kate Beckingsale starring in it and even the title's relevance to the movie plot was unsubstantial. This movie proves that movie posters and movie titles can be deceiving. The best thing about this movie is... It's poster. That's about it.
