Summary: Excellent Film
Review: Don't listen to those other people, this is a really good film. Since when do you have to walk away from a movie feeling different? Since when does a movie have to MOVE YOU to be "good"? I went to this movie and got exactly what I wanted: 2 hours of unencumbered escapism. No lavish special effects, no figuring out who Keyser Soze is, just a good use of $7 for a movie ticket. So there! Enjoy this movie, it's entertaining!

Summary: Why I saw this movie
Review: I saw this movie for 1 reason: Russell Crowe. Not only can he act, he's my age & he's gorgeous! This movie was not the best ever made, but it was fair better than most critics said it was.

Summary: A melting pot of love, drama, and most impotant, HOCKEY!
Review: This film has something for everyone. This story of the Saturday Game in the small town of Mystery, AK unfolds into a wonderful story, not just of a pond-hockey team playing against the New York Rangers, but of the pride of an entire town. It is full of light hearted humor, but this movie is no joke. You become a citizen of Mystery as you not only laugh, but also cry and of course, cheer. Mystery Alaska has enough hockey to keep any sports fan entertained. The movie also has plenty of action and drama to please the crowd that asks "Wayne who?" It truely is a movie for all. If you are a hockey fan, I am here to tell you, this is the new "Slap Shot".

Rating:
Summary: Hockey is greatly portrayed in this Movie.
Review: this is the best sports u have and will ever see. It is mixed comedy, drama, romance, and plenty of action for the sports players.

Summary: Funny, Sentimental Rocky-esque feeling Movie
Review: This is an excellent movie for just about everyone. Men will love it for the testosterone driven hockey action, and women will love it for...well, the testosterone. Lot's of good lookin' fellas in this one! Especially a yummy looking Russell Crowe. Besides that, it's a wonderful story that will leave you with a warm fuzzy feeling (in more ways than one!) I really enjoyed it and I will watch it over and over again when it comes out on video.

Summary: Warm, Quirky and Entertaining
Review: I have to begin this by saying that I am a hockey fan. But I think I liked "Mystery Alaska" becasue it's a really good story. Many movies try to dazzle you with an all star cast and huge special effects budget, but in the end only disappoint you because at the core of the film there's no actual story. "Mystery Alaska" is the story of a quirky little town that revolves around the Saturday hockey game played on the local pond. Being a member of the team is a prestigious and revered position in Mystery. There is no pay or world wide fame gained from being in the Saturday game, but the men play because their fathers played, and their fathers played. It's funny to watch the men obsess over the their spot on the team, because only a select few hold those spots. When one of the men is replaced by the young up and comer in town, it's almost as though someone has died. "Mystery Alaska" does boast a great cast, including: Russell Crowe (Gladiator), Colm Meany (Con Air) & Burt Reynolds. If you like the feel good sports movie genre, and also enjoy a little quirky humor, then this might be the movie for you.
