Watch Ski to the Max For Free

So much average

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

If you like skiing or snowboarding, chances are you'll really love this movie. I happen to like snow sports, so I really enjoyed the visually rich treat and excellent audio track.Basically, this movie is a collection of visually stunning skiing and snowboarding scenes. The scenes (or segments) are unrelated to each other and are separated by shots from a busy metropolis. If there is one weak aspect to the film, it is this strange arbitrariness. It is very awkward. However, it is somewhat overshadowed by the great visuals and audio.All of these segments are beautifully done and with highly vibrant colors. See it in high-definition or IMAX to get the most out of it. There are skiing / snowboarding scenes that I have never seen done anywhere - like where they all do a 360 degree lateral loop - or are skiing at night with only hand-held sparklers. Absolutely stunning.The audio is outstanding as well. The music is a wonderful selection of styles and will likely appeal to a broad range of tastes. Furthermore, I have never heard the 'sounds' of people going over rails; these are great effects.My recommendation is to see this movie if you enjoy snow sports. It's only 40 minutes and you'll likely be entertained.

I am going to go buy an Audi. These cars are fantastic! Did you know that the famous singer Pink drives an Audi? Audi's four-wheel drive cars can drive up the sides of mountains, fly through the air, and even drive across the surface of a lake! Not only that, but the on-dash display can show the car's wry comments! (This car is funnier than Knight Rider's KITT!) Okay, so some guys are riding their motorcycles, trying to get to the top of the peaks at Aspen, but the bikes malfunction, and explode, and it's up to mega-rock-star-diva Pink to give them a ride to the top of the peak, where women ski with poodles off the sides of the mountain, only to para-glide to safety. In addition to music by Pink, the soundtrack features a bunch of Euro-pop sounding anthems that make me yearn for the good old days of ABBA. The mountain locations are really pretty, and are inter-cut with a cityscape (Denver?) in a hallucinogenic fashion suggesting that this whole movie may just be the fantasy of a guy stuck in traffic, who just WISHES that his motorbike would explode so Pink would rescue him with her flying car. As such, this film becomes a cautionary tale on the dehumanization of our society by urban environments and its potential redemption by the power of winter sports.

I really adore this movie, it is one of the best imax movies I ever saw. Maybe thats the reason why I watched it five times. Unbelievable scenes from snowboarding, skiing, motocross, paragliding, together with a real great soundtrack. I'm sure I'm gonna watch and enjoy it a again!

It seems that the makers could not decide on making a movie with a plot or just record the action as is. The result is neither a proper movie, or a documentary. Although some of the footage shot in the mountains is impressive on Imax-scale, the ski-action itself is disappointing, and makes up only half of the movie ( at best ). Furthermore the movie misses the esthetics of "Vertical Zoo" Y2Ski, or the sheer action in movies from MSP like "Ski Movie".Lack of plot or story-line is own to the genre, but it can and should be compensated by the action. People that have access to the Extreme-sports channel or have seen the latest ski and snow-board movies will be disappointed, for others it the movie is worth while seeing in Imax format and is reasonable entertaining. But it doesn't live up to its title.
