Movie Reviews

Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kevin ThomasIt's been brought to the screen by director John Schlesinger and writer Malcolm Bradbury with such deftness, giving it a life of its own, that it's not necessary for audiences to be familiar with the literature it satirizes.
Spirituality and Practice - 8/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatAn fascinating film that is both a valentine to the charms of Iceland and a flinty meditation on a young man's quest to bestow a blessing on the parents he took for granted.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Mick LaSalleCold Fever serves a useful function right there: It shows an Icelandic winter close up, and it's a lot more fascinating than you might expect.
Movie Habit - 8/10 by Marty MapesI suppose its quirkiness is a little formulaic (an American outlaw and his girlfriend run from the Iceland police) and its production value is pretty low, but the scenery is great, [and] the story isn't something you'll see every day.
New York Times - 8/10 by Stephen HoldenFar from being a random sequence of oddball occurrences, Cold Fever, under its jokey surface, has a steady allegorical resonance.
Variety - 8/10 by Derek ElleyAn out-there, sometimes wacky, often mystical road movie about a lone Japanese journeyingacross Iceland to perform a family ritual.
New York Daily News - 8/10 by Dave KehrThe film has an engagingly hip sensibility that never descends into snobbery and an underlying seriousness that lends a touch of poetry to the self-consciously bizarre proceedings.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzFinely tuned English speaking comical road movie set in Iceland.
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 6/10 by Mark R. LeeperA likable if somewhat unoriginal road picture.
Austin Chronicle - 6/10 by Marjorie BaumgartenCold Fever is thoroughly quirky and unusual, and one-hundred-percent experiential. You've got to sweat it out in order to get to the other side.
