Synopsis:

A story about Quebec's most famous hockey player, Maurice "The Rocket" Richard, focusing on the struggles of a French Canadian in the National Hockey League dominated by Anglophones.

Brian's Rating: C : In the line of sports movies based on a true story, this one falls into the "very average" category.  Not knowing much about historical NHL hockey players, all of the information presented in the film was completely new to me.

It was an interesting enough story following a Montreal Canadians hockey player in the early days of the NHL called "The Rocket".  It details some apparent injustices in the league against Canadian players and teams, but it never really delves into it very far.

Not much else to say.  Its run of the mill, no reason to go out of your way.
