Rating: 2/5 --
While much of the cast has charm -- especially Allodi and Nolden -- the performers are sunk by the film's primitive approach to the mechanics of comedy.

This isn't exactly profound cinema, but it's good-natured and sometimes quite funny.

Think The Full Monty on ice: Canada's most famous TV Mountie Paul Gross (Due South) puts tongue firmly in cheek as he applies the old underdog sports team formula to that great Northern obsession: curling.

The plot of the comeback curlers isn't very interesting actually, but what I like about Men With Brooms and what is kind of special is how the film knows what's unique and quirky about Canadians.

Perhaps not since Nelson Eddy crooned his Indian Love Call to Jeanette MacDonald has there been a movie so unabashedly Canadian, not afraid to risk American scorn or disinterest.

Description by OLDIES.com:
No serious sports fan could possibly take a sport played with brooms seriously, so this comedy about curling is prime Leslie Nielsen material. Join him and his band of dysfunctional curlers on a quest to win the greatest prize in the sport: the Golden Broom. Fans of bobsled comedy COOL RUNNINGS should enjoy further winter-sport related pranks with this laugh-riot.
