      Audience Member 04.11 This movie was an interesting little bit of Canadiana I watched late night on CBC. I'm sure it will only apeal to other Canadians, I mean its cheesy and about Wayne Gretzkey's dad Walter, lots of hockey involved here and in one scene they even go to Tim Hortons. I mostly watched it for Kris Holden-Ried, I like him better with a beard but I'll watch him in anything.-ANYTHING Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member great family movie. very moving and well done.cast rocks:) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm a extra in this movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member I could not get into it.
