From the start of this film you ask yourself what is happening, because nothing is ever explained. Aside from virually no character development among the roles, we are never told why John Cusack can just walk out of a bank with... Full review

Good dark comedy. John Cusack has always been a good actor to me. He always plays characters that you dont completely understand but you want to keep hanging around them. The story didnt reviel a lot so at times you feel... Full review

Somehow they could not manage to make this even 90 minutes its only around 85, but it doesnt effect the overall movie. A very dark comedy/thriller that seems to cater more to men then women. There is alot of boozing, violence... Full review
THIS FILM HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

No humor, dialogue, mystery, intrigue, love story or suspense. It is like you are in a dark, black hole, and there is no light at the end. It is a pathetic, worthless, boring, aimless attempt at Tarentino style diabolique. I can't... Full review

Cusack and Platt are wasted in this movie. It was vulgar and utterly pointless. They both deserve better. I'm not sure how Cusack is trying to define his career--he's into all this dark, "comedic" stuff--but he fails here. The female lead... Full review

The Ice Harvest is a Mob movie. Quite gorey and quite explicit in its language. Movies try so hard to have twists, but anymore its usually hard to follow but then its so obvious you wonder why you were so confused... Full review

Boxoffice Magazine
This darkly comedic thriller full of dubious characters with generally bad intentions centers on Charlie (John Cusack) and Vic (Billy Bob Thornton), a couple of mid-level mob associates -- from the Wichita, Kansas branch. The film itself is sloppy, and not all of the threads are gathered, but it hardly matters. ... Full Review

Ice Harvest is a good movie in my opinion, but don't be fooled into thinking it's a comedy. There are several wonderful moments of dialogue throughout the movie, both comedic and dramatic. ... Full Review

And while The Ice Harvest is truly Cusack's film, the movie also strongly benefits from some outstanding supporting performances. The movie is ably directed by Harold Ramis The Ice Harvest slots nicely alongside those earlier movies. ... Full Review

The first two acts of the film are filled with humorous moments, but the final act is straight out of the classic film noir genre.....Stuck in town, Charlie runs into an eclectic cast of characters.....The best kind of black humor is the kind that makes you laugh at something you shouldn't be laughing at..... ...
