Charlie goes outside his house one night and tries to make a snow JACK FROST DVD REVIEW: A cool movie for families/children! I remember when I first heard that Michael Keaton and Kelly Preston were going to be in a snowman movie and I was like...why? I was actually expecting this movie to be bad but I was surprised that I enjoyed it a lot! I really liked how they developed the story between father and son and then son losing father. A very touching story that your children will definitely enjoy! First, the pictures don't do the snowman justice because they really did a good job in the movie making the snow man look good with the use of teaming up with George Lucas Industrial Light and Magic. Awesome! The video transfer is beautiful and the audio is pretty good considering it's a dialogue movie. As for the DVD, the movie comes with production notes and the theatrical trailer. I wish there was a long featurette and perhaps deleted scenes or something but it's ok... I got more what I expected from this movie. In a way, I'm kind of happy that Michael Keaton took this role because for a good actor, to make a film for the families/children out there, shows great character. A cool movie for families to watch together with their children. I thought that it was very good. I saw most of this film on HBO and I thought that the film was very good. I don't think that it glorifies death. Who is to say that our relitives don't come back?? It is a movie that deals with a father that dies in an accident. A year later he returns in the form of a snowman. I thought that this movie was sooo good! I thought the film had the right touches of comedy and Drama. I thought that this movie was a wonderful showcase for Michael Keaton. Not only can he be funny and serious, he can also play music too! I thought that this movie should have been treated better. Sometimes we all need magic in our lives. The end scene with the father and son together for the final time had me crying. I think that Jack Frost should have been treated a lot better... Diserves a chance to be seen... GREAT FAMILY FUN. 16th april 2004. A great family film for everyone don't hire buy it.
