It had all the right elements which makes it a great film. You cared for him, you hated him, you laughed with him, and you cried for him. If you haven`t seen it put it on your must see list!
It`s nice to see a movie about a hockey icon (or hockey in general) this isn`t produced on a $2 budget and looks and sounds cheesy. Great acting, great action, and a truly inspirational story.
cool
Overall, I thought it was a good movie... it looks like no expenses were spared, which is good for a Canadian movie. It would have been nice to develop some of the other characters (ie. every scene with his wife involved her crying - either tears of joy or sorrow) but a good flick involving Canadian history.
Not bad, but I`ve seen better.
Good Movie, great "Canadien" story.
I was one of the lucky people to watch the premiere of this movie in T.O. in the presence of the stars themselves. What can I say? Phenomenal is appropriate.
SNORE! I don`t believe it was completely accurate and I don`t believe, as good a hockey player as he was, that he should be given so much recognition when all of those truly amazing young men fought and died for us, for what we have now! Yeah, he could play hockey and play it well, so what. Did he really have flat feet? Hmmmm He could skate and play hockey.. then I believe he could have worn Army boots and served and fought like so many others. No, the movie didn`t really impress me but it did tell me enough to know that he really isn`t the Canadian Hockey hero so many made him out to be.
I thought the Rocket was Brilliant I think it is good to see such a dedicated story line and such deatail. It made me cry, laugh and left me hanging with suspence anbout the rest of his life. I think that it is the best movie made because of it`s dedication.
merveilleux, meilleur film d`hockey
