I have to say I went to this one not totally knowing what to expect...I walked out laughing so hard it was wonderful...

This is a true Canadian Film...from the cast to the location to the beavers...but it is a sweet wonderful romantic comedy...more comedy than romance mind ya...but I would deffinately put it in a must see list...

They are saying this could be the breakout film..a film with true Canadian Content ...that finally is a box office sucess..

It is about a favourite Canadian sport...curling...but truthfully ya dont need to know anything about curling or the rules to get the humour in this story.. It has Paul Gross as the leading man...(the mountie from Due South)..and wonderful spupporting characters including Leslie Neilsen (and no it isnt his usual Naked Gun type but he is very good and funny). Overall the story of overcoming your past to make a better future is what matters most....well that and the beavers...*LOL*...

I would deffinately encourage anyone who is looking for a good laugh to go see it...

Hey Kellee - where is this located? Does it say? I am from Saskatchewan and curling lives here! Would it seem to be an Ontario locale or can you tell?
thanks!

I believe it was filmed in Ontario..I cant remember exactly where...I know one of the girls on another board I frequent told me one of the coaches at her club was going to be Leslie Nielsens stunt double until he decided to grow a beard for the role.

And I just love the team they have representing Kingston...it is a HOOT!
