    • Goofs
      Throughout many of the games you will see that there are many rocks left in the house. The true way of counting score in curling is whoever has the closet rock to the button gets 1 point, then for every other rock that is closer gets another point until an opponent's rock is closer then any more in the house. During many of the games some houses were left with up to 5 rocks in the house with no opposing rocks. The scores should have been much higher in all the games, most notably in the final game.
    • Quotes

      Joanne: [discussing curling] Okay. Like shuttleboard.

      James Lennox: It's shufflebaord and no. You gotta think like snooker, poker, and free-rock climbing. This is dangerous shit.

    Decent sports romcom

    If you just want a pizza and beer movie and a few laughs with mates then this is a good choice.

    Just offensive enough to feel adult, just enough comedy to make you laugh, and enough curling to remind you you're watching a sports movie.

    Is it a classic? No.

    But, is it a turkey? No way.

    It's an unusual sports movie with lots of silliness and little one-liners and it actually does the send up of curling very well.

    All in all it shines for its small town values, it's heart, and good performances.

    A nice break from the norm.
