The Moviesite Fan Club comments

Ian Douglas: this film is more likely to appeal to the Americans and Canadians than South Africans, given our almost total ignorance of the finer points of ice hockey. Don't be misled by the poster, the film is about ice hockey, not bonking in an igloo. Shaun Myburg (21): This is basically "The Mighty Ducks" for grown-ups, nothing really surprising about it, but still good enough to spend your R18 on. Great performances by the ageing Burt Reynolds and the brilliant Russell Crowe. I just don't see this appealing to a wide enough audience though, especially when opening against Joan Of Arc. Bill Jones (30): Excellent hockey movie with a very nice story line.
