> 3 dayYup, yup. Cool as Ice redefines cinema as we know it. It is beauty in motion. This dramatic piece of art has been the inspiration for many films I think(Cider House Rules, American Beauty, and Problem Child to name a few). Rap star, Johnny Van Owen can bust some funky rhymes, and can schling a schlong with the best of them, yet there is still a void in his life. After his big show(where he obtains the lovely Moniques phone number), Johnny, Sir D and the rest of his posse hit the road on their bikes and start a magical journey. Johnny, as demonstrated by his Down By Law leather, is rebellious, yet warm and friendly, but he is in search of something. He isnt really from anywhere because as we all know it aint where your from, its where your at. Johnny finds himself riding alongside a girl(Kathy, a brilliant 1600 SAT scoring girl) driving a horse and he is so fearless, so driven by his desire to fill his void, that he jumps the 4 foot high fence, without the aid of a ramp, scaring the hoise and knocking her to the ground . When he checks to see if shes ok, she punches him in the stomach. You punch pretty good, for a girl, he jokingly proclaims. Yup, Yup, she likes him. The posse then proceeds into town where Sir Ds bike breaks down(possibly due to gerry curl in the engine, as a posse member jokes). They then take the bike to some eccentric artists house who offer to fix the bike. Johnny finds out that Kathy lives in the same neighborhood as the artists, so he goes to Schling a Schlong at her house. Theres one problem: her boyfriend ..., umm I mean Nick. Nick represents the ills of society: corruption, greed, and he does not wear neon green pants or shave his eyebrows. When Johnny approaches, ..., I mean Nick, Nick proclaims What is that? Nick asks Kathy if she knows him. Johnny,upon learning her name is Kathy) affectionately calls her Kat. They say their goodbyes and Johnny utters the most famous line since Gone With The Wind, when he says Words of Wisdom, drop that zero and get with the hero. This is still a very popular pickup line at bars and nightclubs. Johnny , with the skill of a magician comandeers Kats dayplanner, proclaiming Lookie, lookie in Kats black bookie. We later learn that Mr. Gordon Winslow(Kats dad) is not whom he appears to be. He is actually James Anthony Hackett, a former cop who busted some thugs, some 20 years ago, and now they want revenge on the whole family: Kat, Tommy, (her kid brother) and the parents. Will Kat come to love Johnny? Will The Sugar Shack(the hippest club in town) come alive with another ice perfomance? Will ..., I mean Nick get beat up after playing baseball with Sir Ds bike? Will the Winslows call the cops to get the bad guys. If you are down by law, if you shave your eyebrows, if you wear neon green pants, and enjoy witness relocation movies starring white rap stars then this movie is for you. Words of wisdom, buy this movie. Im outta here, just like yesterday. Yup Yup.

> 3 dayThis movie is bad, yes. Is it hilariously bad? Yes. Is there some cool songs in it? Yes, if you like that kinda stuff, assuming that anyone who seeks this movie out to watch is somewhat of a Vanilla Ice fan like myself. Only certain people get so big that they get a movie, shortly thereafter the end is near, these type of movies are made at the height of an artist/comedian/whatever it may bes popularity to capitalize off that before its over. Honestly, this is one of the strangest movies I have ever seen (and I have seen way too many movies). Seriously though, this whole movie is a WTF. I cant understand how they wrote this movie to be so bad. Its like the script was written in one day, in like an hour by some schmuck. Its astonishing that Vanilla Ice is the only notable individual in the movie. I put quotes around movie because this is not a real movie its a surreal experience in the fantasy 50s-esque town that the 90s rolls into somehow. Wow. How did they come up with this stuff. I think Ice got paid $1M to do the movie, I think it grossed $2M. Awful. I dont understand why they didnt write Ice a good cool movie to be in, its like they were out to destroy him by writing an obvious flop of a script. Im mad to this day that they did Ice like that. I guess its like, We need to write a movie for Vanilla Ice to star in, where the hell do we start and somehow they came up with this sorry excuse for a script/plot/direction/actors. Who the hell is Kristin Minter and Deezer D, WTF? This movie is an injustICE to Vanilla ICE, but its hilariously bad and a must see for fans of bad movies. Plus Ices hair and outfit are awesome, and the soundtrack is awesomely early 90s. Check it out, if you can find it...

> 3 dayafter a freinds recommendation I watched this film - without doubt it is the single, most terrible thing that has ever appeared on my television. I now have one less freind - and some horrible memories of seeing Vanilla Ice try to act.... please dont make the same mistakes I did - avoid this film at all costs. If bad acting, awful script writing, weak directing and shoddy storylines are your thing then this movie is the one for you.

Greater than one weekThe thing is that people underestimate Vanilla Ice by saying that he has no talent. If he isnt talented then why did he sell over 17,000,000 records off of one album. At least he put effort into his shows on stage by dancing. I give this movie 5 stars because the Iceman does have talent and at least he got to be famous. By the way you all should check out his new album Bi-Polar then you may think different of him. This movie is a classic love story which they dont really make these days. Cool As Ice is actually based on my life on what happend in my events. This movie is realistic.

> 3 dayThis movie is pointless and boring. Its also very unrealistic. Why does Vanilla Ice try to be some kind of superhero? Why does the girl fall in love with him after startling her horse with his motorcycle, making her fall? How [silly] is that? I should also note when they catch sight of each other, Ices motorcycle mysteriously just flies over the fence. Theres no ramp or anything! Has anybody here noticed that? Ice comes up with oscar winning lines such as Drop that zero and get with the hero which I found pretty dumb and wasnt really that impressed by it. Actually, all of his oscar winning lines are stupid and unimpressive. What really hurt this movie the most was its unrealism(Im not just talking about the motorcycle, Im talking about the whole movie)the rather stupid lines, and the director for coming up with such a bad idea. DO NOT pay attention to the positive reviews. The only reason they give it a high rating is because Vanilla Ice is in this film and they dont really care how bad it is as long as the iceman is there. Save your money and buy something worthwhile.
