Unashamedly aiming at a teenage audience, the film's lack of pretension is oddly refreshingOctober 11, 2011
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.March 16, 2011
The dialogue is more sensible than the plotting, allowing us to forgive the film's more serious trespasses.October 13, 2011
Pleasant if timid...March 07, 2011
A chirpy, tween-skewing, snowboarding-themed romantic comedy.September 02, 2011
Undemanding, forgettable, formulaic teen rom-com.September 02, 2011
Chalet Girl is a pedestrian affair that limply modernises the Cinderella fairytale for fun and profit.September 02, 2011
Chalet Girl is what it says on the label - feel-good, unpretentious, snowbound fun.November 03, 2011

It's an unassuming film but a surprisingly beguiling one.October 11, 2011
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.September 27, 2012
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.
