Movie Reviews of Youngblood
Movie Review: Maybe you gotta be a hockey fan.....
Summary: 4 Stars
I am a hockey fan and I enjoyed this flick. Completely believable? No, but no worse than any other sport film. Lots of good action (the violence depicted was actually not that far off from the way hockey was in the late 70s and early 80s). Cynthia Gibbs was sexy and Lowe and Swayze looked good on skates.
I am a bit biased because Eric "Elbows" Nesterenko played Lowe's father. Nesterenko was my hero when he played for the Black Hawks in the 60s. He was one of the toughest, meanest, most hated players in the NHL. Seldom scored a goal, but the other team almost never scored when he was on the ice. I had to laugh when he breaks down and gives Lowe tips on fighting, because he really was an expert.
Movie Review: Tea with Mrs. McGill anyone?
Summary: 4 Stars
OK, who cares if it's "unrealistic." In the very small Hockey Genre this is without a doubt the best of the bunch. Why...because it's entertaining.
Rob Lowe and Swayze at their peak and a goofy first entry by Keanu Reeves gave us a glimpse of things to come. He cant act. The only downside to this flick is the highly irritating "lets get it on and make my dad angry" content but other than that a fun, and sometimes funny film. Gets better with age.
The DVD is very very good with 4 stars for both the widescreen video and audio that you can't tell from 5.1, no extras but who cares. Four stitches.
Movie Review: Great Hockey Flick
Summary: 4 Stars
While this movie is probably best reserved for extreme Hockey Fans, it also has a certain flare that makes a person realize how pure the game of Hockey really is. I saw this movie when I was younger and it a sparked a desire and love for the game that is with me even today. Hockey is the only sport left in which players play with heart and passion for the game, and this movie is excellent at betraying that feeling to it's audience. I personally enjoy this movie at least once a year (to get me in a Hockey mood) and can't wait to get it on DVD!Movie Review: Classic
Summary: 4 Stars
For my money, the best old school movie about hockey. Classic one liners like "The only thing better than a glass of beer is tea with miss mcgill" and "Thank god there is still a sport for middle-sized white boys." Funny to see Rob Lowe, Swayze, and Keanu in a cheesy hockey movie. I only wish it was available on Blu-ray.Movie Review: great movie - bad quality disc
Summary: 4 Stars
Great movie but needs a better release. This says 1:85 but looks zoomed out by default. IT looks ok once I adjust it but I see no reason I should have to do that. This is a very old dvd copy of this movie. A restored release on bluray would be sick and I would buy it.
