This is an ice hockey film through the LoveFilm Instant service. Doug Glatt, a bouncer at a local bar, attends an ice hockey game with his friend and accidently gets involved in a fight with one of the players, resulting in him being recruited as an "enforcer" (someone who's job is to wade in when a fight starts and lay out the opposition, protecting the better players from getting hurt).
Based on a true story, it's Forrest Gump meets Slapshot. Seann William Scott is suitably monosylabic as Glatt and Liev Schreiber enjoys himself as Glatt's nemesis, Ross "The Boss" Rhea, but the plot is pretty much the trailer, so it compares badly to either of the other two films. An average pizza move, but perhaps more meaningful if you like ice hockey.
