Sometimes movies are so bad, they end up being really pleasing. It was really the classic high school movie. But with a few ironic twists. 1. Chess is the big sport in the school. This is awesome, chess jocks picking on the nerdy basketball team. 2. Girl meets boy, girl gets boy, girl blows it, girl wins boy back. The movie centers around an international chess rematch between The school's team and a team from Russia. The main characters mother played chess on the school's team 40 years before the movie takes place but she opts out of the tournament because she was a coward and refused to defend democracy through chess against those commie bastards.
Anyways the main character refuses to play chess but when the captain of the team goes missing the day before the big game he steps up and movie magic is made.
Since this was a Canadian production you can see the same members of the cast in other series such as "The Festival" and "The Business" a dramedy about working in the soft core pornography business. Oh Nicholas Wright (Main Character) will be appearing in the Dead Like Me Movie, which is going to be awesome.
So yeah next time you are browsing the video store and feeling a bit peckish for cheesy teen comedy. This won't disappoint, actually it probably will.
