Mystery, Alaska
Very Good 66 Points 1999

My All-American

Miracle
Very Good 17 Points 2004

Given that it is Stanley Cup season, I thought I’d give Disney’s “The Miracle” a shot. Its been a while since I purposefully sat down to watch a family flick without the kids. As usual, the sports-film formula is predictable, and you even already know the outcome of the famous Russia v …
