Review: Awsome movie with a great storyline. It gives a good insight of a persons passion for something they love but how that passion can be lost when there is the corruption of money and drugs.

Summary: Good hearted ski story
Review: I don't exactly know why, but I love this movie. Yes, the storyline has been done before - but this movie pulls it off by combining some great scenery, skiing, and music. This movie makes you want to quit what you are doing and go to Colorado for an adventure of your own.

Summary: Great Movie, Poor transfer
Review: First off, I love this movie. Sure, it's a bit ridiculous, but I like the characters, and the skiing footage is great. I'd probably give the movie itself 4 stars, but the DVD production deserves 2 stars, at best.Issue 1: The video transfer is not very good. I did a side-by-side comparison with my VHS version, and the DVD image isn't much of an improvement. The colors are a little brighter, but the image isn't any sharper, and there is even dust evident on the DVD transfer. But what's worse is the letterboxing. I prefer to see all my movies in the original aspect ratio, so I was excited to finally see a widescreen version of Aspen Extreme. However, I was incredibly disappointed to discover that the 1.85-to-1 aspect ratio was achieved by cropping the top and bottom of the VHS image, rather than restoring the sides of the frame. Issue 2: There is no Dolby Digital 5.1 sound. As you would expect from a not-so-popular catalog title, it didn't receive any special sound treatment. All you get is the Dolby 2.0 surround. Issue 3: And finally, as you would expect, this title received no extra treatment in the special features department. Granted, with the ...price tag, you probably weren't expecting much, but if you didn't already know, this is the movie only. There's not even a theatrical trailer. In short, if you already have the VHS version of this movie, don't bother to buy the DVD version. It's not offering you anything you don't already have.

Summary: Imagine "Top Gun" on skiis
Review: TJ and Dex love nothing more than skiing, so they've escaped their working class origins and have come to the winter wonderland for the rich - Aspen. Having nothing more to do than ski and instruct others (rich guys who, for the most part, can barely stand in their skiis) and pass the spring months wondering at the natural beauty that most of the mountain's winter denizens never stick around for. Their love of skiing has Dex and TJ repeatedly throw themselves down dangerous slopes. Dex, the more reckless of the two, gets in trouble with dope peddlers when, unwisely becoming part of the area's pipeline, he panics and dumps his stash. TJ, the more stable of the two, romances both a wealthy Aspenite and a local reporter (Teri Polo who was much better in "Meet the In-laws"). At first, the flick is content to make itself a parody - these two gusy are oblivious to how out of place they are among the wealthy in-season. Then the spring comes and they stick around - and the flick gets serious. TJ, it's no surprise, has dreams of being a writer. (In every lame movie, the protagonist is always a writer, a thin alter-ego for the guy who perpetrated the script) The flick takes itself incredibly seriously, even as it shamelessly riffs on the far superior "Top Gun" (we get the wiser and older instructor who becomes TJ's conscience; the slick ace who points out TJ's flaws; tragedy forces TJ to reexamine himself; then there's the climactic race in which TJ will conquer his demons. We get everything but the great music, the purple skies and the beautiful F-14's that made TG an absurd treat. AE gives us two pieces of wood, a lot of snow, and a bunch of rich brats who probably saw a few more steep slopes during the dot.com bust) The worst thing about "Aspen" - besides how unoriginal and arch it is, is how boring it is. There's never any sense that the flick is working towards anything - the guys get to Aspen, establish themselves as hot dogs and then....spring comes. Then winter returns, and it's back to work. There's no plot, nothing is happening. The script gets itself worked up about skiing as if these guys were protecting the free world or something, and not just making fools of the rich tourists who spend top dollar every winter learning how to fall down snow covered mountains. It's incredible that they convinced some Hollywood types to so completely buy into this flick's dim homilies, although the studio execs have probably done some skiing themselves, thinking that everybody would flock to a film about two guys whose life boils down to going downhill, every day. Almost everybody who reads this review is probably some kind of ski enthusiast. For those few who consider getting this flick despite having a minimal interest, if any, in skiing, I recommend you climb a different mountain.

Summary: Nothing more than a travel video.
Review: "Aspen Extreme" tries to make the viewer care about its characters. Not surprisingly, the two main guys in the movie are too egocentric to make you feel anything about them. T.J. (Paul Gross) and Dexter (Peter Berg) are a couple of young men who move from Detroit to Aspen to become ski instructors. Dexter is a really great guy who makes obnoxious comments to people and even becomes a coke runner at one point. T.J. tries to come off as the "nice guy" but is playing two women at the same time. Anyway, the two of them ski down a part of the mountain that is restricted. Why? Because it is dangerous of course. While skiing in this area, T.J. falls down a huge, rocky chasm into some ice cold water. Luckily, Dexter uses a rope to get down to him and evidently the only injury T.J. sustains is a gash on his head. How they actually got out of the chasm is anybody's guess because it is never shown. Movie magic I suppose. Now the really smart thing to do after this life-threatening experience would be to try again, right? I guess. They do some more skiing and this time Dexter is killed by an avalanche. Maybe they should've been a bit more careful. Finola Hughes also stars in this film as a rich local who likes to sleep around. The only positive thing I can say about "Aspen Extreme" is that it does show some decent skiing. In fact, it falls back on the skiing shots a bit too much because of the shortfalls on the storytelling side of things. Only recommended for diehard skiing buffs.

Summary: Aspen Extreme
Review: This production is among the most heart felt movies that has been produced in the history of movie making. It is about the evils of ambition, friends falling apart, plus a romantic side. The scenery, plot, and music are wonderful. This movie has more heart than Gattaca (if you haven't seen Gattaca you should watch it). If you are a true movie collector you should definately have this in you library.
