    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Jake Gyllenhaal, who was unknown at the time, auditioned for the role of Charlie Conway, but his parents wouldn't let him do the movie so the producers ended up casting Joshua Jackson.
    • Goofs
      The the Flying V play would result in a penalty for interference in a real hockey game. You may not body check a player who is not in possession of the puck.
    • Quotes

      [the kids aren't thrilled about being named the Ducks]

      Gordon Bombay: I didn't have a choice, we're being sponsored.

      Les Averman: By who, Donald and Daisy?

      Gordon Bombay: Hey, you don't wanna be Ducks? You'd rather be District Five? Some stupid number?

      Peter Mark: Better than some stupid animal.

      Gordon Bombay: I'll have you know, Peter, that the Duck is one of the most noble, agile and intelligent creatures in the animal kingdom.

      Connie Moreau: But they're wimpy!

      Guy Germaine: They don't even have teeth.

      Gordon Bombay: Neither do hockey players. Have you guys ever seen a flock of ducks flying in perfect formation? It's beautiful. Pretty awesome the way they all stick together. Ducks never say die. Ever seen a duck fight? No way. Why? Because the other animals are afraid. They know that if they mess with one duck, they gotta deal with the whole flock. I'm proud to be a Duck, and I'd be proud to fly with any one of you. So how about it? Who's a Duck?

      Fulton Reed: [pause] I'll be a duck.

      Charlie Conway: Yeah, me too.

    • Crazy credits
      In the closing Credits, Joshua Jackson's character 'Charlie Conway' is misspelled and listed as "Charlie Conroy"
    • Alternate versions
      Two versions of the movie's soundtrack exist (along with two representations of the music list in the credits, usually paired correctly but not always). In one version, when Charlie wins the game with his penalty shot, Queen's "We Are the Champions" plays for about 70 seconds, then as the bus drives away and the end credits begin, Queen's "We Will Rock You" starts, followed by "We Are the Champions". In another version, the musical score continues uninterrupted throughout the victory scene, and the end credits have "Winning It All" by The Outfield and then "We Will Rock You". (One version of the song list has Rock and Champions, and the other has Rock and Winning.) The US DVD has the Champions versions on its English, French, and Spanish dubs, although the French credits list Winning. The US Blu-ray has the Winning It All version in both its English soundtrack and credits list. One possibility is that Champions was always intended, but the rights couldn't be set up in time for the theatrical release and were arranged by the home video releases (then in an earnest effort to be faithful to the original release the Blu-ray lost it again).

    A Good Disney Film
    This movie, while not being Oscar material, is not by any means a bad film. However, this film, is extremely well done. The script was shaky at times, but the cast seemed to fit very well, and the music (mostly Queen songs) were very well used.

    The plot is a simple one...bad hockey team, overworking lawyer/ex-hockey player. The lawyer/hockey player gets a DUI, must coach hockey team. I'll try not to spoil the film's plot, though it is a basic one, with your predictable, yet heart-warming feeling.

    Be on the lookout for future Dawson's Creek star Joshua Jackson in his second, and most notable role (excluding playing Pacy) playing the leader, Charlie Conway.

    *** out of ****

    • If the Ducks went into the playoffs in last place then how is it they never had to play the Hawks who most certainly would have been ranked #1?
    • What is the Hawks roster?
    • How old were the actors who played the Ducks?
