Review of Mystery, Alaska (1999) by Jani M — 26 Mar 2011
Life tasting story of Mystery, Alaska ... little town that lives and breathes ice-hockey. Whole town gets new wind when they hear that New York Rangers are coming to play against their local team in their home ice.
Film is filled with warm and interesting characters that are well played by professionals like Russell Crowe, Colm Meaney, Burt Reynolds, Hank Azaria. Whole movie had that small town feeling that you got with tv-series like "Northern Exposure" or "Picket Fences".
Wonderful feel-good-movie that follows the cliches of the genre closely but does it with so much love that it doesnt matter at all.
