Decent package with a lack of focus - mike_2133
The first half of the DVD is focused on women's hockey. The entire half hour talks about the USA team, with very little mention of any other team, including powerhouse Canada.
The second half of the DVD focuses on all countries of men's hockey, since the USA was knocked out early.
Overall, the movie had some good highlights but was very bare in coverage. Only goals were shown, no hits or saves.Highlight Reel - AlanSmithee
A decent package covering all the major games of the men’s and women’s ice hockey tournaments held in Nagano.
I would have hoped for more storytelling, such as a look behind the scenes and into the dressing rooms. Maybe some commentary from various coaches and players would have also been nice.
Not a bad DVD, I just thought it could have been so much more. Some great highlights though.
