Trading on culture clash comedy staples, and an eccentric cast of Scandinavian character actors, Odd Man Rush also exhibits gentle romcom vibes. Jack Mulhern plays the perfect everyman alongside Elektra Kilbey, and carries this film effortlessly.

…maybe it doesn’t score the championship-winning goal but as a thinking person’s sports movie, Odd Man Rush sure smashes most cliched Hollywood product headfirst through the plexi….worth seeking out for those who want to understand the player and the game

Rated: 4/5

Explores universal questions of dream-fulfilment and how much of oneself you give to that dream, thoughts most of us have had whether we've ever played shinny or not.

This hockey movie was great. Jake Mulhern, Elektra Kilbey, Dylan Playfair, and the rest of the cast did a great job in this movie. The story of the movie was dramatic and entertaining. It's about finding out what you really want to do with your life. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. Even if you're not a hockey fan, you'll enjoy it.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Loved it. Funny, smart and realistic. We watched it with our teen-age boys, who have dreams of taking their sports as far as they can and they loved it too. The movie presented a great message, without hitting you over the head.
