On Ice

About This Movie

On Ice is a curious documentary that dives deep into the world of cryonics — a concept that feels both fascinating and deeply unsettling. The film’s pacing is a bit erratic, swinging between moments of dry humor and serious philosophical musings, evidenced by the contributions from Timothy Leary and other thinkers. The off-beat tone gives it a unique flavor; you might find yourself chuckling in one breath and contemplating mortality in the next. Visually, it’s straightforward, almost DIY, which somehow makes the topic more relatable. The performances, rather than being traditional, feel more like candid conversations, making it distinct in how it presents its themes. It's a niche watch, but that's what makes it intriguing.
