You have no idea how excited this thread makes me. I was actually looking for one for a week or two, since the movie came out really. I saw it opening night and I am totally and completely in love with it.
Call it the inner hockey geek or whatever btu I absolutely loved this movie. I thought it was an excellent blend of hockey and drama and it was just put together wonderfully. And on a totally superficial note can I say how hot most of the hockey players were. And Eddie Cahill's eyes, hot damn, that scene where they focused in on them through the mask was just WOWZA! |

This movie was so awesome! My parents took me to see it on Valentine's Day. They had seen it before and really liked it. I went in there thinking, "Um, ok. It's a sports movie from Disney. Tsk. Really not getting my hopes up." But . . . wow. It was just fantastic. Kurt Russell was amazing and they really managed to sidestep the "sports movie" clichs that so many others fall victim to. It was just great acting and action all around. I mean, I knew how it was going to end and I was still on the edge of my seat! I'm from Lake Placid and was born in 1980, so I didn't get to see one of the most (if not the most) memorable moment of my town-something I've always regretted. This movie gave me the chance to experience it, and I am so grateful for that.

Ah, I'm so jealous of everyone that has seen it. Once I get paid maybe I'll go out and see it. It must have a good ending if everyone likes it so much... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Hi! I just saw Mircale yesterday and I was so amazed! I absolutely [img]smilies/love.gif[/img]'ed it!!! The story is great in and of itself, but the movie was just so good. I swear, nothiing is hotter then seeing a bunch of guys playing hockey! [img]smilies/drool.gif[/img] I thought it was really interesting how all the players were just regular guys from college who were good hockey players... and they were cute. I wanted to clap and cheer during the movie, but I didn't want to make any noise. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] Also, even tho we all know how it ended, I was still hanging on the edge of my seat! I can't wait till this movie comes out on DVD, I wish I could go out and see it again today. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] If anyone hasn't seen the movie, u should def. go out and see it. Sorry, i'll stop blabbing... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

This movie is awesome! Everyone should go see it! I have been playing hockey for 11 years(i started when i was 3)so I was so excited that a hokcey movie was coming out. My whole hockey team went to see it as a team and we all enjoyed it. It inspired us so much we went out and kicked butt during our game that night
Even if your not into sports people should see this movie! [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] __________________

I like how the movie used professional hockey players rather than actors. I hope some of them decide to act again.

Is it just me or does anyone else find this movie wholesomely insulting and stupid?
Some Hollywood producer decides to take the events of the 1980 Olympics, where the US Hockey team and the USSR Hockey team face off, and the little guy, the US team, pulls a win. The one time that they won. Versus like the dozens of times they lost. I don't know about others, but it screams of childishness and immaturity to me. They brag about the ONE win that they got but conveniently forget the many many times they've lost? |
