Editorial Review:

Product Description:
A TELEVISION COMMERCIAL SHOOT IN AUSTRIAN ALPS FEATURINGEXTREME SKIING GOES TERRIBLY WRONG WHEN THE FILM CREW UNKNOWINGLY CAPTURES A WANTED SERBIAN WAR CRIMINAL ON FILM. IT'S A BATTLE FOR SURVIVAL BETWEEN THE WAR CRIMINAL AND THE EXTREME SPORTS ENTHUSIASTS.

Amazon.com:
When an extreme-sports filmmaking team sets out to make a commercial featuring a gold-medal skier outrunning an avalanche, they run afoul of a Serbian war criminal hiding out in a mountain resort. So it's snowboards vs. bullets on steep slopes of snow--and if that's your thing, Extreme Ops is for you. There are also subplots about the high-class skier (Bridgette Wilson-Sampras, House on Haunted Hill) trying to prove herself with the rough-and-tumble snowboard scamps, and various romantic sparks flying, but the only real point to this movie is lengthy shots of stuntpeople zipping down the mountainsides. Though it could stand to have less plot and more action, there's a good dose of spectacle nonetheless. Rufus Sewell (Dark City), Devon Sawa (Final Destination), and the cast do a serviceable job, but poor Brit Rupert Graves (excellent in Mrs. Dalloway) was forced to act through a terrible American accent. --Bret Fetzer



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - People get killed doing this
A semi-famous mathematician Obed Schramm died in a fall
on a mountain climb. Even the best and safest arranged
of events like this can kill the stunt men and women involved.
Holding the money man over the side of a building at the beginning
tells you the producer knew there were real dangers involved
in making this kind of film. The kids are kind of danger addicted? It if the unexpected ones of bad guys in the plot that make the second half of the movie...



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Extreme is right.
Everything you ever wanted to do.
Extreme sports meets james bond stuff.
wish it went for longer.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Extreme something
Some folks need only a paper-thin plot to string together a bunch of action sequences, without character or theme or language or logic getting in the way. If that's you, this may be your movie. Xtreme sports, xtreme ops. Get it? If that doesn't strike you as xtremely clever, you may find this movie painful to watch. I'm thinking of telling The Agony Booth about it.

The humor doesn't work, to the extent that I think I want a laugh track after all. Or a drummer doing rim shots. Ba-DUM ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not Much Plot & Poor Editing - Avoid
Avoid this one. The bad reviews are not kidding. The plot is almost non-existent. The action scenes are not enough to make up for the poor editing. The writing has drawn the characters very thinly. Sadly, a reason to watch this movie is to be amused at how badly it is put together.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Big, brash and boring
The movie "Extreme Ops" which opened to lukewarm reviews and even more lukewarm box office really should carry a government health warning with it. It is so mind numbingly incoherent and lackluster that one can feel your brain cells being depleted one by one after each comic strip moment.
Let me take that back because to equate comic strips with this piece of drivel is a disservice to comic strips. This movie has no plot and no characterization. The point appears to be to display some "amazing" ... Read More
