Slow and plodding with little action, bad acting, and ridiculous plot: so Ted killed his own brother Paul to get him out of the way so he and Angie could be together...?...because she wanted to stay with Paul after her and Ted's one night stand? Then why did he bring Christina to the family get-together for his mom's birthday? Why not leave Christina behind so he could woo Angie over the weekend and become a couple with her now that Paul had been dead a few years? Because he and Angie "were meant to be together and she needed to see how happy he was with someone else (Christina)", as he told Christina at the end after he had knocked Angie (the one he "was meant to be with") out in her kitchen.....
What a stupid, nonsensical, blatant contrivance as the weak climax to a boring useless movie!
And the unrealistic way he died at the very end - just standing there while the ice broke around him and then sinking into the water instead of trying to get away from the spot he was in and get back on the dock. Might not have made it but he didn't even try.
Waste of film and time. I only gave it 3 for the adorably beautiful German Shepherd ('Ace').
3 out of 10 - Grade D
