Reception



Laura Fries from Variety magazine gave the film a very bad review, stating: "Keep moving folks. Nothing new to see here unless you havent gotten your fill of the jeopardy of the week. In fact, this latest family drama isnt even based on a true story. Heck, its not even inspired by a real incident. "Miracle on the Mountain" is touted by CBS as a movie "suggested by actual events." At this point, you might as well just admit it's fiction, and not particularly good fiction at that.". David Parkinson from Radio Times gave the film two out of five stars, concluding: "Director Michael Switzer makes the most of the scenery and stages an impressive avalanche, but the domestic duelling rapidly becomes wearisome."
