Icebreaker had a limited budget. The production company made a heroic effort to make this film look big and for the most part succeeded. The number of extras, the explosions, car chases and wrecks, the fire fights and the entire ski lodge that was used for the set. In the end it was a hard shoot. The day time temps were sometimes 10 below with the wind chill factors. The film is worth a look if for no other reason than to see what dedicated film makers will go through to compete in the market place. It is also a pretty good escape film to just watch and enjoy.
