Pretty generic sports movie, but of course it gets bonus points for hockey being the sport of choice. It reminded me just how toxic sports can be from behind the scenes — while I never competed in any sport at any kind of high level, I am a lot more content to watch the drama unfold from afar. It makes for great entertainment in real life, but ultimately sports movies are only a supplement to the real product.

VIFF 2025 #4. Monday matinee screening at the Fifth Avenue Cineplex in Kitsilano, made possible by working ET hours. First time visiting this Cineplex, and last new one for me in the Vancouver area. No surprise the crowd was mostly retirees.
