Choppy, incoherent and dull, The Snowman is one of the worst films of the year. [Full review in Spanish]

[The Snowman] is two hours of uninterrupted, snow-caked boredom.
October 23, 2017
With a perplexing tale and some very odd creative choices, it's so easy to laugh at The Snowman, but this kind of tale shouldn't inspire laughter.

November 07, 2017
Bad storytelling, bad monikers, bland characterisation, by-the-numbers backstory, barely interesting procedural drama: there's an avalanche brewing in The Snowman, and it's of the generic and cliched kind.
October 27, 2017
The mystery develops in directions that aren't remotely interesting, leaving the entire movie feeling flat. At least it's beautifully photographed in stunning Norwegian scenery.
