Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

cookingspray ***May Contain Spoilers*** I happen to live in Winnipeg Manitoba where the show has been based for the last 4 years now. Except for our hockey team, The Jets, most people would not be able to point us out on a map. So I am glad we are at least portrayed on a show that is viewed around the world. YES... we get winter. Yes, Ice Road Trucking can be and is dangerous, that is why the money is so good. I have friends who are truckers, so I know a thing or two.Sadly, the only thing keeping me watching this show now are 2 people. Alex & Lisa. To be honest, I think she is the only one bringing us males back to the show year after year. Without a hottie, the show has little left to roll on.We keep seeing the same over dramatized dangers over and over. Believe it or not, Manitoba does have a government department that makes sure that the Ice roads and ice crossings are safe for passage. If the routes were as dangerous as the show portrays, there would be truckers dying by the truckload (pun intended) every year; and another method would be found to get vital supplies to the northern First Nations. They have been talking about using blimps (hey History..there's an idea for a new show). If an ice crossing was as flimsy & dangerous as the show portrays, it would be closed by the Department of Highways. The crossings are tested frequently by government officials. The roads are not nearly as rough as the show seems to make them out to be. Loads would be spilled all over the place, not to mention broken goods delivered on broken suspension systems. What we are seeing are real life truckers becoming actors & drama queens. Also, some very clever editing.So really, somehow despite the danger, every load gets delivered. Even in the spring when the ice is dangerous, it seems they barely make it across with the last load... ice falling apart behind them, but somehow, they always manage to cross it safely again on the return trip home. We are never told how this miracle happens.so... very repetitious and predictable. One final note. Irony is abound that after barely surviving so many brushes with near death on the ice roads, Darrell Ward was killed in a plane crash just before the start of season 10. So what happens to his business partner Lisa now? Does she go it alone? Sell the company? Perhaps..she will steal Steph Custance (the new hottie) from Polar & form an all girl ice road trucking company! I guess we will have to wait until season 11 (yawn) to find out.

tgp1994 I marked this post as containing spoilers since I don't know if we consider inter-season changes to be spoilers.If this show had just stuck to its format of the first three seasons, I would have rated it much higher. After the first one or two seasons, the cast & crew were kicked out of the Canadian diamond minds, and went to Alaska. The following one or two seasons then were good, but steadily went downhill as the the crew moved back to Canada and started moving shipments to small Canadian settlements. Essentially it turned into a drama between two small trucking companies, rather than an interesting reality TV show following the original likable personalities.

gunnvald-kleveland I am from Norway and don't think the temperature is so extreme , if i calculate it right -32F is just at water freezing, and they show it as terrible at -42. Also i think the trucks are so different than we are using, many things looks like its been around since the early 80's. Who in his right mind uses steel-wire to load and unload the trailer on the rig. That's my opinion,you're technique and solutions are strange for me. And to use alcohol on air tanks was a system we used 20-30 years ago, now its just air drying system, so many different ways to the job. So I think its a good series but some of the characters are a little over the top for me,they are a little full of themselves :)

mirosuionitsaki2 History Channel is one of my favorite sources for History information that is actually not boring. Ice Road Truckers is not history, but it's a reality show that probably seems like it shouldn't air on the History Channel. But, it still airs on the History Channel. I decided to watch it anyways and I found that this show is very rewarding. It's interesting to see the life of Ice Road Truckers, truckers who truck on ice with convoys. Although, you might think this idea is very uninteresting, it depends on what person you are. If you like reality shows about people who hate each other living together, don't watch this. If you like reality shows about people who have lives, then watch this! What this show is actually about is the lives of Ice Road truckers. These truckers drive on icy roads. It is quite dangerous which brings for quite entertainment that is good. These truckers have a mouth full of trash, so watch out for the bleeping censorship. If you don't pay attention to the bleeping censorship, then you'll be alright.I recommend this show for many people who like reality shows for basically anything.
