- Figueiragames6d agoI prefer the first but its aok movie...
- Mike MessierJuly 6, 2025If you liked this movie, you probably would also like having lemon juice squirted into your eyes. Let's get one thing straight: The Ice Road (2021) is a fun, B-Level movie. It wasn't great, but it had a solid cast accompanied with a paint-by-numbers action-thriller reminiscent of the 80's/90's. This uncalled for sequel, is just bad. Ice Road: Vengeance literally has zero scenes of ice roads or big-rig trucking, and he's not even seeking vengeance against people who did something to him directly. I was willing to suspend disbelief in the first movie for the sake of having fun. Liam Neeson and his brother are big-rig truckers in desperate need of a job. Conveniently, a group of diamond minors just got trapped in a cave collapse and have 30 hours of oxygen left before it's lights out. The construction site needs some heavy machinery that can only be delivered by truckers and the truckers needs to accept a profitable, but very dangerous job to drive this equipment across the melting ice roads of Canada during the spring time. The job goes sideways when it's discovered that the mining company is behind the collapse and they're trying to sabotage the truckers' emergency effort to save lives. Liam Neeson (again, just a truck driver) does, what Liam Neeson does and kills everyone who tries to hurt him and prevent him from saving 26 lives. Not realistic, but you can suspend disbelief to have fun. The sequel picks up shortly after the end of the original, Liam Neeson is about to embark on a journey to Mt. Everest to spread the ashes of his brother who was killed in the first film. Immediately after flying into Nepal, (conveniently) he's caught in a situation where a special interest group has hijacked a tourist bus whose plan is to murder a family who refuses to sell their land so that a profitable dam can be built. Like, he just was involved in this murderous corporate greed plot just a month ago, and just by dumb luck it's happening again? Instead of avoiding this situation and continuing on his path to spread the ashes of his dead brother on Mt. Everest - he immediately abandons those plans and decides to get involved. He (a truck driver with no formal fighting or weapons training) kills all the gangsters and crooked cops to protect these villagers being picked on by the big corporation. What made the first film enjoyable was that his character was just this average guy trying to provide for his family. For some reason or another, the sequel turned his character into Liam Neeson from Taken.
- SixpaxJuly 23, 2025Look, I’m still trying to work out how Ice Road Vengeance even got greenlit. It’s not like The Ice Road was some cinematic triumph begging for a sequel. Yet here we are – another slog through snow, clichés, and questionable creative decisions. This one checks every box in the "Generic Action Flick 101" manual. Angry man with a past? Check. Vague villainy and revenge plot? Check. A rotating cast of forgettable henchpeople (because, yes, we must be inclusive even when being bland)? Double check. The film trots out a wannabe Ruby Rose as the edgy sidekick, but instead of fierce or compelling, she lands somewhere between underwritten and unintentionally comedic. It’s hard to believe she could punch her way out of a wet parka, let alone survive a convoy shootout. And then there’s Liam. Poor Liam. Watching him mumble through this film is like witnessing Bruce Willis’s late-career “paycheck phase,” except with fewer explosions and more snow tires. He looks like he’s contractually obligated to appear conscious – and just barely pulling it off. In short, Ice Road Vengeance is the cinematic equivalent of cold leftover pizza: technically still movie-shaped, but hard to recommend to anyone with taste buds.
- jeremy8937July 3, 2025Low budget, rubbish
- assassin007July 17, 2025I like Liam Neeson and think he did a good performance in this film. The film was let down by the CGI scenes which looked comical.
- TexasWolfJuly 4, 2025Liam Neeson movies are always great
- neillynJuly 21, 2025Not Liam best work A weak and disappointing storyline.
- Darth PhyveJuly 14, 2025Neeson takes out everyone. Formulaic and plays to his strengths. Bruce Willis but with all his marbles.
- brountreJuly 15, 2025If your not expecting to much, it was a good movie.
- samuelgearhartJuly 10, 2025If you’re looking for high art, this ain’t it. But if you want to chug 8 or 10 beers and kill two hours laughing with friends, then you’re in luck. Great pacing, innovative story, and some decent action. Terrible CGI, but who cares?
- HgrovesJuly 9, 2025Liam Neeson played his roll well as usual. Storyline not as solid as I would have expected for a character of his calibre. Compared to some of his other work, I’m giving the movie credit for the action sequences and the suspense. It will keep you riveted
- EmJuly 8, 2025“All those in favor say aye, the ayes have it”—Ice Road: Vengeance delivers exactly what you expect from a late‑career Liam Neeson actioner: a few rocky stunts, questionable CGI, and serious grief-meets-grudge energy, but ultimately feels like reheated direct-to‑video fare.
- anoma7July 4, 2025Terrible
- Pedro MarcosJuly 7, 2025Good enough to entertain.
