Summary
RATING: Not Rated
Starring Lucy Tulugarjuk, Fiona Gordon, Dominique Abel, Philippe Martz, Thérèse Fichet, Georges Jore, Louis Lecouvreur, and Bruno Romy
Fiona is the manager of a fast-food restaurant. She lives comfortably with her family in the suburbs. In other words, Fiona is happy… until one day she accidentally gets locked into a walk-in fridge. She escapes the next morning, half frozen and barely alive, only to realize that her husband and two children didn't even notice she was missing. But when Fiona develops an obsession for everything cold and icy: snow, polar bears, fridges, icebergs – she drops everything, climbs into a frozen goods delivery truck and leaves home. For a real iceberg. (First Run Features)

TV Guide Ken Fox
Three Belgian clowns wrote and directed this sly, winsome tale of one woman's quest for her destiny in the polar seas after an absurd but life-altering accident reveals the emptiness of her mundane, middle-class life.
Read Full Review >Portland Oregonian Marc Mohan
The Belgian comedy The Iceberg might be a pale shadow of the films of the great French comedian Jacques Tati, but even that's enough to qualify it as an amusing, inventive effort.
Read Full Review >Miami Herald Marta Barber
The Iceberg is a riot, a quintessential French comedy with an improbable plot and an unbelievable cast of characters.
Read Full Review >The Onion (A.V. Club) Noel Murray
The film is striking and often charming, and any movie that places three tall, lanky types aboard a miniature boat named "Titanique" can't be slammed too much. But in the end, it's easier to admire than to love.
Read Full Review >New York Post V.A. Musetto
Gordon and Abel (who delivers one of the longest yawns in screen history) are howls as husband and wife. Their long, lean buddies seem custom-made for slapstick humor. Keaton would approve.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Matt Zoller Seitz
Its simultaneously silly and grave tone finds humor in the characters' delusions and obsessions while celebrating their uniqueness.
Read Full Review >New York Magazine David Edelstein
Not every sight gag works, and there's a brief stretch in the middle where the action becomes landlocked. But once we're out to sea the movie goes swimmingly--its three protagonists fighting, flailing, and often on the verge of drowning as their tiny skiff surges toward the land of the Inuit.
Read Full Review >Variety Jonathan Holland
A brave but doomed attempt to revive the art of pure physical comedy, the willfully eccentric, practically dialogue-free, Iceberg sets itself a high standard with an opening 15 minutes of the most delicious slapstick, but thereafter only a few moments of gentle surrealism and the occasional poetic image justify the ride, with only 10% of the pic's potential laughs evident above the surface.
Read Full Review >Village Voice Jim Ridley
The result packs all the hilarity of a museum installation on The Semiotics of Silent Comedy.
Read Full Review >Film Threat Phil Hall
This one deserves to go back in the refrigerator – preferably to the very back of the refrigerator!
