- TriviaA real bank heist took place near the filming location, and the felons drove right past the production assistant, who immediately alerted everyone on-set. The felons were surprised to see that they were driving through a film set, shortly before driving headlong into (and becoming hopelessly stuck in) a fake snow drift. The police immediately apprehended the two bumbling crooks to the amusement of all on-set.

Featured review
Snow Day (2000) is a movie that I recently rewatched on HBOMAX. The storyline follows a meteorologist in heavy competition with the other local meteorologist. Meanwhile the kids in town are desperately waiting for a snow day so they can enjoy a day off from school. The meteorologists compete to be the first one to identify and report a snow day and once it's arrives, the neighborhood kids start a series of hijinks.
This movie is directed by Chris Koch (A Guy Thing) and stars Chevy Chase (National Lampoon's Vacation), Chris Elliott (Scary Movie 2), Jean Smart (Watchmen), Pam Grier (Coffy), Iggy Pop (Cry-Baby), John Schneider (Dukes of Hazard) and Rozonda 'Chilli' Thomas (Marshall).
I really loved the cast of this movie and this is way more entertaining than it gets credit for. This has a National Lampoons feel to it in a lot of ways. The kids and their storyline is a bit cheesy, but the forts, the "begging you" scenes and sledding sequences were awesome. Chase was hilarious and the various hijinks bring a smile to your face.
Overall, this movie is cheesy but fun. I would score this a 7-7.5/10 and definitely recommend seeing it once.
