    A Disney family film, with all that the term implies: It's playful, corny, silly, adventuresome and enjoyable.

    As for Gooding, he's sadly gone to the dogs -- Snow Dogs has got to be his most humiliating role since "Lightning Jack."

    Amiable Gooding still smiles through it all, weathering the cold, physical abuse and implied racism, doing his best to make his audience believe that Snow Dogs isn't offensive mush. But he can't bring it off.

    Not that bad imo. It had a few moments through out the film, While I do agree that its rather trashy and poorly acted as well. The film somehow manages to take its poor overall value and make something of it, Suprisingly not as bad as it should be.… Expand

    A truly amazing film that sustains momentum in spite of not containing one fiber of substance.
