## Description

Product Description          An eccentric coach of a dysfunctional curling team has his sights set on winning Canada's greatest curling event - the Golden Broom.             .com          Call it The Full Monty on ice. With tongue firmly in cheek, director-writer-star Paul Gross applies the old underdog sports-team formula to that great Northern obsession: curling. (You thought hockey was the national obsession? So did Canada.) You know the score: estranged teammates reunite to fulfill a dead man's last request, win glory for their fictional hometown, and earn back their hibernating self-respect. Square-jawed Gross recalls his Due South days as the amiable team captain, a boy scout with an impish streak. Leslie Nielsen turns down the usual goofball shtick to play Gross's crotchety, self-medicating father. There are enough issues here to fuel a dozen movies and none of them packs the punch of a pint of Molson's beer, which is just the right tone for this off-center sports spoof, a story of little victories, big stones, and beavers on the move. --Sean Axmaker

    Superlative Humor ... of a block-headed variety.
  

*by A***D on Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2016*

I almost passed this movie by without watching it.  After all, it is about curling!  Curling is about ice, blocks of polished granite, and brooms.  It isn't supposed to make any sense at all.  Ahh, but this movie proves it does.If anybody could possibly explain curling to those of us raised well away from its frozen origins, this movie comes pretty close.  It also provides a view to the wonderfully skewed world of Canadian self-effacing humor. (No, self-effacing isn't the right word, and a trip to the Thesaurus did not help.  Just remember while watching, it is funny!)  Curling is a sport and a cultural phenomenon.  Like Ice Hockey, it helps if your brain is thoroughly chilled by months of grey skies, ice, and snow and also warmed with doses of real alcohol.  It may also help if you have just a bit of Scottish blood coursing through your veins.By the end of the movie, I was actually lulled into thinking there is sanity in this sport.  What?!!  What is so funny about exploding 42-pound hunks of polished granite?  I am not smart enough to know, but it is funny!  And what is so funny about storing these marvelous chunks of stone at the bottom of a very cold lake?Humans are amazing!If you think this review is senseless, watch the movie.  At least you will laugh hard at the complete senselessness.Now if someone could make a movie that explains the Texas Aggies or the Georgia Bulldogs to those of us who deal with them daily, but without the benefit of having attended their august alma mater...

    A very charming movie!
  

*by K***5 on Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2013*

I recently rediscovered Canadian actor Paul Gross, 20 years after his Due South program aired on CBS in the US.  Decided to try out some of his other films, and I was stunned at the level of crass, bawdy vulgarity in Men With Brooms.That said, this is an INCREDIBLY funny movie, but certainly nothing to pop in for family movie night.  I'm in my 60s, have been around the block a time or two, and it's not often that anyone in the film industry can make me blush, but this movie surely did!  Beyond that, though, this well-crafted comic story is one of discovery, victory, and redemption -- themes commonly found in Gross's high-quality stories of life, death, and love.A curling coach dies, and his long-gone, generally nutty players return to town for his funeral after a 10-year separation.  They then team up to compete once again for the Golden Broom trophy.  Each player has a story, as does each of the women in their lives, and as the plot develops we have the chance to know and love them all.Curling is a sport that requires tremendous fitness, skill, and timing. I know the camera can make those shots look fabulous, but cannot believe all the action is the work of only the cameraman and the film editors.  How in the world did they assemble a cast of actors who could pull it off?  Did they all take curling in high school P.E., or were they trained in pre-production?  Speaking of actors -- everyone in this production is simply first-rate.The big surprise is James Allodi, someone I'd only seen briefly in small roles, but he played his part, an unhappily married funeral director and "lead stone," to perfection.

    You Don't Have to Understand Curling to Love This Movie
  

*by T***N on Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2002*

I went to see this movie at the theater because I am a Paul Gross (the mountie in Due South) fan. I knew almost nothing about the sport of curling and still I loved this movie. It's funny, it's romantic; it's got action and angst and humor and a great story.Gross plays Chris Cutter, a guy who returns home 10 years after he walked out on his fellow curling teammates during a championship. He comes back for the coach's funeral. When the will is read, the coach asks the teammates to get together again and go for the golden broom (the most pretigious curling trophy in Canada).They all hem and haw, but decide to try. Their first match, against a group of octogenerians, is a disaster. So it's off to train in a hilarious sequence of events.Along the way, there is lots of angst between Paul and his former fiance (Michelle Nolden), whom he never said good-bye to when he left. There is also the fiance's baby sister (wonderfully portrayed by Molly Parker) who has always had a thing for Paul and still does. More angst. Yum.Paul's teammates are quite a group. Peter Outerbridge is charming and funny as the gang's womanizer who can't remember the names of women he sleeps with. Jed Rees is adorable as a loving, but frustratingly infertile husband. James Allodi is the down on his luck guy who must choose between curling and his wife, who aspires to high society. A wonderful group of people, who we come to care for.Paul Gross wrote the screenplay and directed it. He does a great job. Buy it! You won't be sorry.
