Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Pleasant if timid...

rotten:
Jones may be a charismatic comedian, but no amount of her skilled mugging, Britpop tunes or help from supporting stars can transform this derivative ugly duckling into a comic Anglophile swan.

rotten:
Hot Dog... The Movie and its disreputable ski-comedy ilk might have been a low point in cinema history, but at least their unbridled crassness had energy; Chalet Girl embraces similar '80s tropes for a lethargic you-go-girl fairy tale.

fresh:
The dialogue is more sensible than the plotting, allowing us to forgive the film's more serious trespasses.

fresh:
A chirpy, tween-skewing, snowboarding-themed romantic comedy.
