...but I was pleasantly surprised. I mean, it's not going to win any academy awards, but I found it entertaining and funny. It was done in a documentary style. I'd call it the "Spinal Tap" of Hockey movies. It could also be compared to "The Office" in the style of film making that was used. Of course, it's not as good as either of those examples, but I did find myself laughing out loud a few times. I was a little intimidated by the reviews done by Canadians, but I find that it reminded me of when I played in a rec league. Maybe the jokes were old hat to them, and that's why they didn't find them funny, but to me it wasn't the same old thing. The plot was fairly simplistic, but the comradery and tensions between teammates and opponents felt real to me. If you are like me, and HAVE to watch any and all hockey movie made, I'd suggest you give it a chance. I'd like to hear some more reviews to see if anyone agrees with me.
