The performances really uplift this heartfelt but instantly forgettable coming-of-age film about the weight of pursuing a singular dream

…maybe it doesn’t score the championship-winning goal but as a thinking person’s sports movie, Odd Man Rush sure smashes most cliched Hollywood product headfirst through the plexi….worth seeking out for those who want to understand the player and the game

Explores universal questions of dream-fulfilment and how much of oneself you give to that dream, thoughts most of us have had whether we've ever played shinny or not.

3/5

Not your typical sports film in that it focuses mostly on choice vs. passion vs. dreams. Not the game itself.

7.5/10

A pleasant indie movie surprise that feels more like a character driven slice of life story instead of an endless parade of genre cliches.

This hockey movie was great. Jake Mulhern, Elektra Kilbey, Dylan Playfair, and the rest of the cast did a great job in this movie. The story of the movie was dramatic and entertaining. It's about finding out what you really want to do with your life. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. Even if you're not a hockey fan, you'll enjoy it.

Smart low budget films are the best! They revolve around a well-written script and a cheap but talented cast. Jack mulhern's future is very bright!

Loved it. Funny, smart and realistic. We watched it with our teen-age boys, who have dreams of taking their sports as far as they can and they loved it too. The movie presented a great message, without hitting you over the head.
