Forest Gump plays ice hockey

Rating: 3/10 (24 March 2012)

Now I like Sean William Scott and had hoped that this would continue after seeing this movie. I am pleased to say that if anything he has gone up in my regard. The last ice hockey film I saw was Youngblood (that Raki man is a F***ing animal) to quote a young Keanu Reeves. The plot of this film is simple enough. Doug Glatt (Sean W.Scott) is handy with his fists and for this gets taken on by the local ice hockey team as the enforcer whose main role is to protect the fallen prodigy Xavier Laflemme (Marc-Andre Grondin) whose overall performance was average. The film leads up to the big final, which isn't the game itself but a showdown between Doug Glatt and the ice hockey leagues number one hard Ba****d Ross Rhea played by the outstanding Liev Schreiber. Not here's an actor who has the ability to create chemistry with his fellow actors. What I really liked was the connection you started to feel towards Doug Glatt which is all down to Sean W.Scott performance. I wouldn't go to the cinema to watch it, but certainly as a rental. This for me was really watching Forest Gump play ice hockey and then smack the s**t out of someone.
