Graham Greene, M. Emmet Walsh, Mari Ana Tosca

Back from the city, Ray is the new manager of his tribe's struggling ski resort. Convinced that the hotel's beautiful guest is an incognito critic for the exclusive 'Worthington Travel Guide,' he sets...( read more  read more... ) out to garner a good review. But the guest-- actually a Mohawk Indian -- has her own agenda: she's come to the reserve hoping to find the man with whom she's been exchanging romantic emails. When she mistakenly confuses the over-solicitous Ray for her amorous pen pal, the comedy of errors kicks into high gear. Especially when the real critic arrives and encounters the hotel's vegetarian chef who whips up fabulous meals for his guests, then kills their appetites by telling them the pet names and life stories of the animals they are eating. Add to the mix chambermaids who insist on bringing their children to work, a resident handyman who constantly hits on the ski bunnies and Ray's father, the retired chief, who just wants to win the new Jeep Cherokee at the big holiday bingo contest.

    Kind of cheesy, yes, but a pretty cute Native film. And the main actor is nice to look at, too.

    I severely underestimated this movie. It's funny and has a healthy amount of sarcasm and pessimism. I liked it. I wish the real world was remotely close to this one. A fun movie to watch.

    A really funny movie made by First Nations people about First Nations people. I really like the mouse.

    Very sweet movie, must see
  • May 12, 2007
    a very cute ending to see the main character, played smartly by Sam Vlahos, end up with the Brit. The comedy was very far apart but overall, a cute movie. Much like Grumpy old men series.

There will be holiday pictures that are more high-tech than this one. But there may not be many with such good cheer. full review
