It's all very third division école de Richard Curtis. Full Review

Chalet Girl is banal, witless, slushy, laboured and dull. Full Review

Hot Dog... The Movie and its disreputable ski-comedy ilk might have been a low point in cinema history, but at least their unbridled crassness had energy; Chalet Girl embraces similar '80s tropes for a lethargic you-go-girl fairy tale. Full Review

Rating: 3.5/5 -- It's an unassuming film but a surprisingly beguiling one. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- It's hard not to instantly forgive all the script's occasional faults and just be swept up in the feel-good nature of such a charming, easily-likable release. Full Review

Rating: 1.5/5 -- Chalet Girl is a pedestrian affair that limply modernises the Cinderella fairytale for fun and profit. Full Review

Rating: 1/5 -- Jones may be a charismatic comedian, but no amount of her skilled mugging, Britpop tunes or help from supporting stars can transform this derivative ugly duckling into a comic Anglophile swan. Full Review

Product Description:

A self-described tomboy and former skateboard champion finds her footing as a chalet girl at a posh ski resort in the Alps, and enters into an unlikely romance while preparing to take part in a competition that will remind her how it feels to be a true champion. Kim Matthews is a 19-year-old (Felicity Jones) who thought her best days were far behind her. A fast-food worker who struggles through endless shifts to support herself and her father, she is completely stunned when she lands a catering job at a popular ski resort. Having never lived high on the hog, it's a world that seems as alien to her as life on Mars. But in time, the nimble skateboarder discovers the joys of snowboarding and decides to take a shot at a major competition staged to celebrate the end of the winter season. While trying to fit in and mastering the art of snowboarding, however, Kim starts to fall for her boss' son Jonny (Ed Westwick), a handsome young skier who seems to have taken a liking to her, yet still seems strangely elusive.
