Whiteout is atrocious, bland and dull. As soon as the Dark Castle Entertainment logo appeared onscreen I feared the worst as the studio has given us some rubbish over the years. The film is well shot and looks very slick with no expense sparred. You can tell how bad things are going to be within the first few minutes as a shower scene with the miscast Kate Beckinsale is provided for no reason other than to provide some flesh in a plot devoid of love scenes. The main issue is the script itself, which based on a comic book is threadbare and the dangers of the environment or threat of a killer is never transmitted. Whether this is the overuse of CGI outdoors or poor directing doesn’t matter as it tries to be clever and fails miserably like the whole film.
