John Cusack and Billy Bob Thorton make an excellent pair in this movie.
John Cusack plays a Mobster Lawyer. He steals $2million from his mob boss by skimming the tills. Billy Bob Thorton is his partner in crime.
The interesting part of this movie is that it all takes place on Christmas Eve. I can't quite figure out how this pertains to the rest of the plot.

Why this movie didn't do better in theater release should go down as one of the greatest film cinema mysteries of the decade. "The Ice Harvest" is fresh, upbeat and charismatically hilarious from the start to the last breathe. Cusack and Thornton couldn't be better. Thornton is at the Top-Of-His-Game (comedic like "Badder Santa") and the movie setting holds you in a poise that makes you "want to be there". Ice Harvest is pricelessly clever. The wit, humor, settings and dark comedy has not been matched since preceding classics like "Pulp Fiction". I didn't go 5 minutes without feeling thoroughly engrossed and entertained with this "Plot Gone Wrong" and I hung on every word, and they never let me down. This is one to watch again and again and again. Applauds to the Producers. You won't find this film qualtiy again in a GOOD dark comedy for a decade !!!!

PLEASE SEE MY OTHER REVIEWS FOR GREAT FILMS !!!!

Not one of the best movies I have seen by a long shot. This movie is rather poorly made in my opinion, and doesnt really have much of a plot. Also, this isn't a movie you would want a kid or a young teenager to see. This film has a considerable amount of "random nudity". When John Cusack is talking to someone in a strip club (where a lot of the movie is set) there are completely naked strippers dancing in the background. If you are offended by nudity or very strong language this is definately not the movie for you. If, however, this doesn't bother you, you might want to pick this one up. Personally, I wouldn't waste my money on it, but that is just my opinion. However, there is a positive to this movie, John Cusack plays a decent part. He acts pretty well in this movie so if you are a John Cusack fan, and language and nudity don't offend you, pick this one up.

Set in Wichita, Kansas, The Ice Harvest is a nice film, featuring another fine performance by John Cusack. Basically, he and Billy Bob Thornton have to make it through Christmas Eve, and they are scott free with a cool 2 Million they have stolen. If you like John Cusack, then you will love this movie, but if you're not a fan, you might just think it to be average. Good movie, give it a try!

This movie although a bit of a dark comedy was awesome. It was not too violent but instead was clumsily violent. That added to the hilarity of the movie. I laughed like crazy many times and it had moments of suspense from time to time and then the killing from time to time. Overall it was great fun, and I highly reccommend for adults. This is not a movie for children or those heavily into the church scene.

  Surprisingly Great Movie

I gotta say, I wasn't expecting much from this movie, but I have to say this was one of the best movies I have seen in awhile. I would describe it has a dark comedy/mystery. John Cusack played his role wonderfully and Billy Bob Thornton was just quirky enough to make the whole thing work. Yes, there is Sex, nudity, and violence, which is why it is rated R, so no, don't let your kids watch it, but go ahead and indulge yourself...this is a great Movie with some great twists and turns. Don't forget to watch the extras, they are worth it!!!

  A great bizarre holiday movie
Review created: 11/05/08

If you are into the "not so normal" holiday movies - go ahead and purchase/see this movie.

A very dark comedy type of a movie with superb directing and cast. You wont be dissatisfied. The true villian (actual there are many if you know what I mean after watching this) will surprise you - he normally doesnt play this type of role.

Excellent extras on the DVD that you will never see anywhere else. Dont want to spoil it - but worth your bucks if you spent a normal movie ticket price or less to see this movie.

  Not Enough of Billy Bob

It was a good movie, had some funny parts and some good plot twists. Unlike Bad Santa, a great movie because Billy Bob Thornton dominiated it, you won't see enough of Mr. Thornton in this movie. I bought it thinking that he was going to play a big part in it. So if you want a good movie to laugh at over Christmas then buy it, but if you're a big Billy Bob Thornton fan, then you'll be disappointed.
