Funny movie, one of the few which swearing enhances

Rating: 8/10 (19 August 2003)

Good yarn. Good acting by Newman (of course) and the supporting cast. Very amusing movie. Favourite scenes: 1. The 3 "retards" entering the ice-rink and slapping all the opposition players in the faces as they skate past. 2. The sledging (and you reckon the Aussie cricketers are bad). 3. The player who checks himself in the mirror whenever he gets the chance. etc.
Even if you don't like swearing in movies you'll agree it is a relevant part of the script in this very enjoyable movie.
