criticism
“An agitation film that anticipates the future in a game plot. In reportage style, he introduces young people who are building an organization preparing for the revolution underground, introduces them to their world of thought, shows how they work and fight. With "In the Country" (1966) and "The Edge" (1967), "Ice" forms an extraordinary trilogy of feature films about engagement and forms of resistance in the 1960s. "
"The pseudo-revolutionary whipping of this underground film aptly demonstrates the lack of perspective of the American New Left in 1969."
