About
Not for you if you want a clean, light sports comedy or you dislike vulgarity and lots of on-ice fighting; if you like Slap Shot or The Longest Yard, you may find this feel-good, brawler-focused story fun.
Pros: likable lead; rough-fun hockey fights; heart and romance | Cons: uneven comedy; vulgar language; pacing feels rushed
