Title: A have-fun, feel-good movie!
Review: Against a gorgeous background of snow-capped mountains, Mystery, Alaska tells the story of a small town which is united by its love of hockey and pride in those who play it. The best players participate in the "Saturday Game" where citizens play 5-on-5 hockey on a small pond with no lines, no boards, but lots of fans. A former Mystery resident, now a promoter, comes back to his home town with a proposal that the hometown boys take on the New York Rangers. What are the chances--but who cares when the town joins together in mutual pride to face down their vaunted rivals. Nothing too deep here, but just good fun and old-timey, small-town spirit. You'll find yourself cheering for the undermanned team from the frozen north and having a great time while doing it.
