The Ice Harvest Ratings & Reviews
Houston Chronicle
Bruce Westbrook
The Ice Harvest is like Sin City without the bold style and crooked smile, disgorging grisly bloodbaths without drawing artful things out of them.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
As a feel-bad holiday comedy, The Ice Harvest sometimes recalls Thornton's own Bad Santa, though it's never as outrageously funny, and Thornton doesn't get nearly as much to do.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Given that pedigree, it's all the more disappointing that this movie falls flat.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
The Ice Harvest isn't a subversive piece of work; it's not making some grand statement about the dark side of the holiday spirit. But what it is saying in its grimly funny way is that we can't always control the timing of our disasters.
San Francisco Chronicle
Neva Chonin
Ice Harvest, sir, is no Groundhog Day.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
[A]s an antidote to the sugary confections of the season, its hung-over cynicism works wonders.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
... the film's difficult genre straddling never quite congeals.
Boxoffice Magazine
Tim Cogshell
Make no mistake: This is an R-rated, mean-spirited movie for which Christmas makes a great backdrop, but only if you really hate Christmas. If not, It's A Wonderful Life is sure to be playing somewhere.

Daniel Fienberg
Viewers are likely to leave this movie not having laughed as much as they expected, not having gotten as many thrills as they hoped for and ambivalent to the experience.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
But these moments are few and far between, the majority of the picture nothing more than a nice idea tied to bits and pieces I've seen far too many times before in far better movies.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Crammed with barflies, strippers and assorted reprobates, The Ice Harvest easily takes the honors as this holiday season's biggest and dirtiest lump of coal.
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
Robert Benton and Harold Ramis, put on dunce caps and go stand in the corner.
Observer
Andrew Sarris
Nielsen's Renata is icy cold in her calculations, and an object lesson in how to play a lethal charmer plausibly without losing any of her erotic appeal. She alone is worth the price of admission.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
The comedy in The Ice Harvest comes in shades of dark and darker. That's my kind of humor.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
This often macabre comedy ... allows us to doff such civilized traits as taste and decency.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Funny, tense, and exceedingly well made ...
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
The Ice Harvest is a treat for everyone who hates holidays.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
The Ice Harvest is as smooth as a dry martini, and it's an unalloyed pleasure to behold Cusack and Thornton playing off each other.
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
[A] heist movie that mistakes bad taste for laughs.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
The Ice Harvest is surely the most bracing, opposite-of-gooey holiday picture to appear since Bad Santa ...
