great depiction

The only hockey movie people know of are the two extremes of the humorous side in Slap Shot and the serious side in Miracle. Youngblood depicts the truth of a young mans sacrifices and decisions for minor league hockey. Great movie, recommend it for any sports fan. June 20, 2008

"Lets Go Pretty Boy" ~ Coming Of Age On And Off The Ice

`Youngblood' is a slickly produced sports (hockey), coming of age film from '86 with a lot of good looking young men to (Rob Lowe, Patrick Swazee and Keanu Reeves) keep the girls watching, fast moving game sequences and the usual on the ice fights one has come to expect and look forward to in a hockey game. The storyline is predictable but enjoyable, the pounding, energetic `80's soundtrack is excellent and the cast likeable. Not a bad way to while away an evening with a couple of buddies or a girlfriend.

My Rating: -3 1/2 Stars-. June 8, 2008

Maybe you gotta be a hockey fan.....

I am a hockey fan and I enjoyed this flick. Completely believable? No, but no worse than any other sport film. Lots of good action (the violence depicted was actually not that far off from the way hockey was in the late 70s and early 80s). Cynthia Gibbs was sexy and Lowe and Swayze looked good on skates.

I am a bit biased because Eric "Elbows" Nesterenko played Lowe's father. Nesterenko was my hero when he played for the Black Hawks in the 60s. He was one of the toughest, meanest, most hated players in the NHL. Seldom scored a goal, but the other team almost never scored when he was on the ice. I had to laugh when he breaks down and gives Lowe tips on fighting, because he really was an expert. February 13, 2008
