Review of Thin Ice

Thin Ice (2020– )
6/10
Important subject detracts from entertainment; clumsy Direction at times; but superb scenerey.

The central - absolutely true - argument is beautifully spoken and demonstrated. But if this is a Documentary, then what is the plot? The main character is filmed clumsily spying around corners, finding conveniently open windows (in the Arctic), entering an upstairs room by slipping in at ground level, and generally succeeding at Superman speed.

The impossible human movements (eg, a whole ship's crew magically transported to a hut in the wilderness) detract in the same way.

The story behind this is very good, with greed (Russia) and (Greenland's First Minister) outwitting the Swedish argument (for the planet) and the social problems of indigenous Greenlanders are made clear.

It would be better shortened, with some of the silly action left out.
