Hockey Night

When I usually watch a movie I liked 15 years ago, I can´t understand how it could affect me the way it did back then. But last night, when I watched Hockey Night again, I almost felt like I was 12. It might not be the most unique plot, or the best photo, but it has captured the way it feels to be a young teenager in a small town. The cast is not 30-year olds trying to act 14, but young teenagers acting their age. When you are 14 a kiss and a glance is a big deal and it doesn´t have to be much more to spin the whole world around. This movie gives young people a chance to realize that you don´t have to act like a grownup when you still are in high school.

I first saw this movie on HBO in 1984 Or 1985. I thought it was a great story because at the time I loved hockey and I liked being a teenager in love. I watched it about 20 times and never got bored. Excellent.

I first saw this movie when I was a young girl. And I fell in love with it! Spear and Cathy are great. I love when they "picket" at the tournament against North Bay. And I also like Evelyn a lot as well. It is a good movie about growing up and some of the teen angst that kids used to go through. Too bad in today's society the problems they are facing kids now are drugs and whatnot. It used to be about simpler stuff like sticking up for your friends and fairness in sports. I am now 31 and it is still is one of my favorite movies. My husband bought it off of E-bay for me for a surprise Christmas gift two years ago. I was so happy. I usually end up watching this about every two months or so. Good 80's flick! I would suggest this movie to anyone.

I remember this movie from when I was a young tyke in the early 80's I think. I taped it on our vcr and I literally watched it almost everyday over summer holidays. I was huge into hockey so that helped. Great film. Highly recommend it!

I loved this movie as a kid. I fell in love with the characters. At this time in history it was very hard for girls to get into sports without female teams. I really wanted to see the puppy love of Spear and Cathy grow. I am a big fan of happily ever after.
