jamalking15 Acting was good, story plausible, premise acceptable. The director could have made the tension more palpable. Entertaining and fun. Could have been much better if science was more accurate. Good if you keep your expectations in check.

boukitsa Kate is a bad actor, cute chick although. When the main female character starts the film with a shower scene, ok the expectations for the movie goes down. Also the directory was so bad (see the trivia), the scenes in the snow storm were so blurring.

tbills2 Kate, all Kate, only Kate, and no beckon(sale)ing reason other than Kate Beckinsale. I'm glad I'm not stuck in a whiteout so I can see pretty Kate visibly clear 'cuz Kate revealing her white underwear out and taking a shower in Whiteout inspires me to shoot my white out. Her character's introduction is outright (White)outstanding! I'm really happy the writers didn't Whiteout that scene 'cuz I do love Kate and Whiteout's very good.

seagem You know the feeling when you or your kid drops their ice cream on the ground and it goes Ker-Plop? That describes my reaction to this film... Kate is on auto-pilot here and is not believable as a US Marshal assigned to these frigid climes...particularly when being pursued in wintry wasteland all covered with snow. Too much reliance on CSI-type scenes where we are face first thrust into medical examination procedures. Tom Skerritt was well cast as Doc and fits right into the lost outpost scenes - the same scenario he was in way back when with the first Alien film (1979) and even the M.A.S.H. movie (1970) that preceded the TV series. Speaking of M.A.S.H. I can't remember another example where the public address announcer is assigned with such a key role as is demonstrated in Whiteout. You can't help but notice this voice-over technique employed to build tension. Eventually it became humorous which was not the desired impact. But watch it for the effortless and believable Tom Skerritt.
