As an unintentional send-up of the predictability and wretchedness of modern action-comedies, Chill Factor is hilarious. Sadly, however, no one involved seems to realize the silliness and transgressive stupidity of its sub-direct-to-video-thriller script.

The stunt work is pretty good, the brain work close to nonexistent.

The atmosphere is winning, with the odd felicity peppering the journey with gags and groans.
