Summary: A very disappointed viewer here
Comment: Overall this was a very disappointing film. It is beautifully filmed and the skiing scenes are well done, but the story is just a total bust. I was expecting a Cliffhanger/Vertical Limit kind of adventure film, but instead it's mostly a sappy romantic comedy with too much emphasis on the shmaltz and not enough exciting action. Exciting to look at, but overall a boring film.

Summary: Classic
Comment: This is a classic coming of age story with a ski twist. Speaking of skiing, there are great shots of Doug Coombs and Scott Schmidt ripping. Plus it has great fun with cliches. Dig it!

Summary: Wrong DVD in package!
Comment: We were SO disappointed when we opened the DVD case - and a DIFFERENT movie was in there! We still don't have Aspen Extreme. TOO MUCH TROUBLE to send it back.

Summary: It's no Hot Dog: the Movie, that much I can tell you!
Comment: Aspen Extreme (1993) Former A-Team writer Patrick Hasburgh branches out with this endurance test disguised as a movie about two Michigan guys who move to Aspen, Colorado. They become ski instructors and in a completely surprising turn of events, meet up with every ski movie cliche you could think of. The lead meets a wonderful female disk jockey who truly understands him and a rich woman who wants to use him as a plaything. Hmmm. Which one will he choose? The sidekick gets mixed up in some shady dealings and nearly drags his buddy down with him. How will he pay for this crime? Uh oh! What about that nasty German ski champ who has taken the trophy four years in a row? Who could possibly beat him? And why won't the actress playing the rich woman (Finola Hughes-Generation X) stop smiling? There's nothing funny here! So, hey, Patrick, I don't think Mr. T. and Dirk Benedict are busy; might be time to start thinking about that reunion show!
