What our customer's say!

"great film, great service", It was shipped quickly, and I really appreiciate that. Great seller. I would deffinately buy from them again.

"Great family movie", This is a great family . It has great actors and they all seem to work well together. My first copy was destroyed due to to many viewings. But,Just replaced it. It is a must see.

"A MUST for Hockey Fans!!", "This is a hockey town." If you care even just a little about this sport, you must see this movie.

"surprising", I wasn't going to purchase this film because as others stated it included Burt Reynolds and Russell Crowe and it was about hockey, but I happened to catch it on one of the movie channels and found that I actually enjoyed it. It's listed as a drama/comedy but there is more drama than comedy. Perhaps if there had been more comedy I would give it the full 5 stars but as I stated Mr's Reynolds and Crowe and hockey aren't my cup of tea. Still it had a lot going for it and is worth seeing.

"Mystery Alaska", I wasn't sure if I would like this movie because I do not like Russell Crowe at all. The only reason I agreed to sit through it was that the rest of the ensemble cast was so good. I ended up enjoying this film. Who doesn't like a film where you can root for the underdog? The hockey team in Mystery, Alaska ends up playing an exhibition game against the New York Rangers. Everyone has the same question - can they compete? This is a movie that can appeal to many because while there are some very funny moments, there is also a lot of drama.

"Decent screenplay overshadowed by a lousy leading man", There is one major problem with this movie, and the problem's name is Russell Crowe. I CAN'T STAND Russell Crowe! I think he is one of the most overrated actors around, and his arrogance bleeds into every single movie he appears in. He is not particularly talented and makes the same faces in every film, and it drives me CRAZY! In this case, we have what could have been an okay movie, but Russell Crowe poisoned the whole thing with his very presence.

"Mystery, Alaska" has the potential to be a decent movie. It's about the small Alaskan town of Mystery, a place where everybody knows everyone else and each resident is obsessed with the game of hockey. One day a former Mystery resident turned sports promoter returns to town with very exciting news: he's set up an exhibition game between Mystery amateur hockey players and the New York Rangers. The people of Mystery must learn to put aside their various differences and pull together in preparation for the event of a lifetime.

This film is sentimental and can basically be summed up in one cliche: "It's not about whether you win or lose; it's how you play the game." There are several strong performances in this movie, including Hank Azaria as Mystery's prodigal son and Burt Reynolds as the town judge/coach. However, Russell Crowe spoiled the whole film for me. He plays the town sheriff/hockey player/coach, and he's basically just a big cocky oaf on ice. There's this one scene where Crowe's character is supposed to have a "touching" moment with his wife. He crosses out a bunch of words in a newspaper column and instructs his wife to read the remaining characters out loud. I think the intention of the scene was for Crowe's character to come across as being all sentimental and deep, but it was just incredibly stupid and serves as a perfect example of how every movie Crowe is in basically turns to garbage.

If ANYONE but Russell Crowe had been cast in the role of John, "Mystery, Alaska" might be worth watching. Sadly, though, I must advise you to skip it.

"Part of Your Hockey Collection", If you are a hockey fan, this movie has to be part of your collection! Besides, without this movie, you will never be able to answer the question, "What are the best two activities to do in the cold?"

"Russ Crowe Can't Save This One", The community values of the town of Mystery seem to include: profanity, adultery, profanity, name calling, profanity, ostracizing people who have left town, profanity, and hockey. The hockey part was fun.

I'm sorry, but I can't provide a complete review. I had to turn the movie off when my teenage kids came home.

Why didn't I turn it on again later? Well, the story line wasn't believable. (Apparently the whole town turns out every Saturday to watch the same people play hockey for 13 years straight.) And, I had been expecting a comedy, but nothing seemed to be funny. BUT the real reason I didn't turn it back on - after 1/2 hour of watching, I didn't care enough about any of the characters to be interested in who wins the big game.

I guess some people in Hollywood think we'll watch anything as long as it has a big name (Russell Crowe) or two (Burt Reynolds) to attract attention.

"Funny small movie", This is a fun small movie. Although there are bits of corniness in the movie, it is overall well acted by Crowe, Reynolds, Bello, and Azaria. Great "stuck inside due to snowstorm" movie.

"Greatest hockey movie ever?", Rivaling "Slapshot" as the best hockey movie in cinema history, "Mystery, Alaska" provides enough action, comedy, and realistic sports scenes to satisfy even a moviegoer not fond of sports movies.

Between Burt Reynolds and Russell Crowe, the acting weight is sufficient; however, several B-listers and no-namers turn in a convincing and entertaining performance. The Mystery hockey team is a cast of characters that do not disappoint; in fact, they are down-right hilarious. Stevie Weeks, the young upstart, can skate like the wind blows; Tree is the bully enforcer, albeit a little slow mentally; Skank lives up to his name and reputation, but plays tough hockey; and the Winneka brothers move and play as if they have ESP. The star of the team, however, is Connor Banks, a hockey stud who can blast pin-point slapshots all day. Due to a Sports Illustrated article touting the team's skills, the once in a lifetime opportunity to play the New York Rangers presents itself.

What ensues is the transformation of a small town, high spirits and hijinks, a hilarious National Anthem by Little Richard, a great hockey battle, a perfectly brilliant cameo by Mike Myers, and a great ending.

I highly recommend this movie to all, and particularly to sports enthusiasts.
