its an ok movie but too much like a lifetime orignal movie. the only show one hockey game. they show the crowd and play the star spangled bannger and o cananda but you never see them play the final game. if they was more hockey in it the movie would be better.
Fantastic Movie! Ahead of its time, corniness asside...
I stubbled across this movie and never imagined before I popped it in the VCR what I was missing.
There is an extreme amount of corny-ness in this movie, but it was way ahead of its time.
I'd love to see this concept remade for the new millenium by anyone but Disney who would just Mighty Duck it into the ground.
Wonderful storyline! I wish I had it on DVD!
The Little Sister
I really like this movie and am thrilled to have found it!!! My close friend played the little girl in the movie, the younger sister. So I am thrilled to be able to get this for her.. sshh.. don't tell her it is a surprise. Deanna was a cutie in the movie. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to any family.
Handsome young men whack each other in the face with sticks and learn about life in this enjoyably silly hockey movie. Rob Lowe stars as Dean Youngblood, an American rookie who's been given a shot on a Canadian Junior League hockey team. Sure, he can skate, but can he take a punch? This coming-of-age story is about learning the beauty of vicious hockey fights. No, really. Containing both young-bucks-in-the-locker-room shots and plenty of hockey violence, Youngblood is a surprisingly entertaining cupcake of a movie--there's not much nourishment, but it sure tastes good. Watch for Patrick Swayze as the team's leader and Keanu Reeves in his first film role as the French-Canadian goalie. The DVD's most entertaining feature is the option of watching Youngblood dubbed into...

In a departure from L.M. Montgomery's book series, this third TV movie jumps ahead to World War I and puts Anne and her beloved Gilbert smack in the middle of it. Instead of marrying Gilbert after her teaching days--as she does in the books--Anne spends a disillusioning year with him in New York City, and then the couple quickly marries before the good doctor ships out to France. (In the book Rilla of Ingleside, Anne's sons go to war and her youngest daughter is separated from her sweetheart.) Impetuous as ever, Anne joins the Red Cross and crosses the pond to track down her husband when his letters are returned unread. What follows is an adventure that takes her through battle zones--where the bodies pile up faster than you can say Saving Private Ryan--and on to...

When it comes to the subject of community, David E. Kelley--the prolific writer-producer behind television's The Practice and Ally McBeal--falls somewhere on a continuum between directors Howard Hawks and Robert Benton. While Hawks's professional characters are bound by a knowledge of how to do what they do even if they don't know why, Benton's people, professional or not, have long ago substituted their own eccentric reasons for that elusive why. Thus we get the kind of in-house, oddball rituals sandwiched between passages of actual work on Ally, and the affectionately entangled personal and professional ties between small-town folks in Kelley's earlier TV series Picket Fences.
