TeenzTen An action-packed slog

Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Michael Ledo Pete gets killed in the first scene by a CG Abominable Snowman (AS). Brian (Chuck Campbell) who was out with him vows revenge as the AS also killed his father 25 years ago. Brian goes back up the mountain and never contacts anyone. His sister Nina (Lauren O'Neil) forms a rescue party of friends who are all either ex-military, current military who have a lot of time on their hands, and wannabe military. Mark (Adrian Paul) the finest drunk CG helicopter pilot, takes them on top of the mountain so we watch them ski and snow board where they need to go...over pristine mountain that already has tracks, go figure.In wouldn't be much of a film if they didn't encounter a mess-o-Yeti.This production takes place in Washington State, but filmed in Bulgaria. This SyFy production is well a SyFy production, so our monster lacks some credibility. The soundtrack is TV lame. One for the kids.Fun Fact: They have done DNA testing on what people claim is Yeti hair from two separate sources. The DNA is that of a bear of an unknown species that could be a hybrid of the Grizzly and Polar Bear, or perhaps an ancient common ancestor not yet discovered.

amesmonde A sister sets out to rescue her missing brother with the help of a group of her solider friends on leave. Yes, the world needs serious Yeti creature features and one about a rescue for a brother who revenge on a beast which killed his dad is a good idea on paper but the CGI let it down from the outset.Directed by Marko Mäkilaakso and written by Nathan Atkins Abominable Snowman, a.k.a Yeti and Deadly Decscent is a good concept but underdeveloped and poorly executed. There is a budget but Syfy producers and editors appear to rarely, if ever deliver. Abominable Snowman does benefit from Atkins serious story and tone but sadly it never breaks the made for TV production value or script which makes it unintentionally comedic at times. Out of the snow there is hope as the design of the creature works, the scenery is breath taking, there's also some nice skiing, snowboarding and Elizabeth Croft as Stacey is notable.This is one of the passable better ones but how many good made for television Yeti films are there?

wnourallah This film should never have been released to the public as it is so bad that someone could end up committing suicide from boredom. Actually I must get this film for my mother in law to watch with her daughter!!!!!!!!! Just kidding I love them both. The acting was soooooooooooooooo bad and the dialogue one hell of a lot worse if that is remotely possible. Why does anyone want to direst such crap? If the voting had -10 I would've chosen that score. Even the monsters were sooooooo bad that you can only see them in small bits or totally blurred. In fact the film should have a health warning attached to it. Don't waste your time on this crap. The only thing that was worth watching this crap is the fact that you see Zara Dimitrova's gorgeous and delicious lips. She really is one sexy foxy lady. Ummmmmmmmm.

Michael_Elliott Abominable Snowman (2012) * (out of 4) If you're expecting SyFy to make good on last year's horrible BIGFOOT then you're sadly going to be disappointed. A group of professional snowboarders and skiers take to the mountains to look for a couple missing friends but soon they run into the title characters. ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN is yet another horrid bigfoot/yeti/snowman movie and it's a real shame. I love the actually myth of the creature but it's just mind-blowing that so many of the films have been downright awful. I'll start with the good right up front. The performances here were actually much better than you typically see in a film like this. Now for the bad stuff. We'll start with the actual monsters, which are among the worst you're ever going to see. Last year's BIGFOOT turned the creature into an awful looking Godzilla-sized monster. This film here makes them look like something a cat would cough up in the middle of the night. The actual look of the creatures are perhaps the worst I've ever seen. We can start with the fact that they're never the same size as in one scene they'll be the size of a car and then the next scene they're bigger than a large tree. Their size changes throughout but their hairy look and design make them look like a bear. In fact, my three-year-old son came out of his room while I was watching this and called them a bear. Even worse is that the awful CGI has a blurry look to them and it's just so bad that you have to wonder who signed off on them saying they'd be okay for a movie. The story is all rather predictable but with the lack of comedy, scares or drama, the thing just feels slow and boring. Lets all hope that one day the genre gets these monsters right but at this point lets hope no more turn up on SyFy.
