A 1930s-style, boy-meets-girl, boy-loses-girl songfest. With sticks, skates and a puck. Go to Full Review

This over-the-top, deliberately campy take on the national sport, featuring Olivia Newton-John as a hockey mom, is exactly what it sets out to be, for better or worse. Go to Full Review

Steven P May 3 I have read so many negative reviews. I just don't understand why they are so negative. I love hockey and I love musicals. I thought it was funny, charming, and had great choreography. Living an hour from Toronto, I enjoyed seeing all the landmarks I am familiar with. I was amazed a Canadian musical scored Olivia Newton John to play the mother. Overall I was pleasantly surprised as I was expecting to hate it. See more 01/01/2018 On one hand this is a truly awful movie, on the other hand it's hilariously fun, but still terrible. See more 12/29/2012 This was hysterical. Funny, well-acted, just a great way to kill some time. I really enjoyed it. Lyrics like 'You're making a mistake, his tongue and saliva I did forsake' ... are *funny*. That's humorous! Geesh. Even hockey can be poked fun of. I can believe, however, that the hockey games are bogus -- I know nothing of hockey but do about music and can attest that the music-playing scenes were ridiculous, stands to reason the hockey was too. But it's OK, everything doesn't have to be realistic. This is a musical, for crying out loud: it *is* ludicrous; that's the point. eh? See more 11/18/2012 Fun Canadian tale about hockey. The songs are not very good or memorable, but it works for what it is, and the acting pretty much is the same, although it could have used less language to make it more family friendly. See more 07/12/2012 This movie is awful. It quickly becomes obvious that whoever made this movie is not knowledgeable on hockey or musicals. The more you see hockey being played, the more they make errors, anybody who loves hockey will be frustrated by the rules being wrong in this movie. The acting in this movie is atrocious most of the time, which can probably be credited to an awful script, but there is no actor in the movie experienced enough to save a bad script. The songs are truly the worst part of this movie. The melodies are non existent most of the time and the poor actors are stuck trying to find a note to hit, the lyrics are even worse. It seems as though the lyricist has the depth of a 12 year old with a thesaurus. overall an atrocious film See more 04/07/2012 The musical interludes felt way too fored. Even for a musical.
