Rent The Ice Road (2021)

Average - The Ice Road review by TH

Another Liam Neeson action film. So is it any good. Well it was highly watchable if slightly unbelievable. I would say this is worth a watch but don't expect something you would watch again like Taken or The Commuter which were better. That being said the backdrop was a nice change.

Enjoyable Action/Adventure - The Ice Road review by GI

Obviously influenced by The Wages Of Fear (1953) and Sorcerer (1977) this action adventure is another in the never ending line of Liam Neeson curmudgeonly old timer action flicks although this one puts aside the usual revenge theme for a reasonably entertaining adventure story that has its moments. Neeson plays Mike, a gutsy trucker who also cares for his mentally damaged ex veteran brother Gurty (Marcus Thomas). Needing the money Mike accepts the highly dangerous job of taking special (and very heavy) rescue equipment across the frozen sea on an ice road to a diamond mine where an accident has trapped miners underground. It's all a race against time before the miners suffocate. There's the tense journey across the ice which isn't without incident as you'd expect and also a slowly unravelling conspiracy to give Liam the chance to battle with some bad guys. It's pure hokum but enjoyable and Laurence Fishburne has a cameo just to add some extra spice.
