"You're like the fucking Hebrew Dolph Lundgren or some shit."

Written by Jay Baruchel and Evan Goldberg, 2012's Goon is a loose adaptation of Doug Smith's autobiographical book Goon: The True Story of an Unlikely Journey into Minor League Hockey. It is also a brash, crude, bloody, mean-spirited and nasty motion picture, but it's these exact qualities which makes the film such a uniq... read more

I watched this last night. Funny! Sean William Scott does it again in this role of a hockey goon! If you like dry humor movies, this is definitely for you!

I really enjoyed this. Seann William Scott does a fantastic job as Doug Glatt. The fight scenes are brutal, bloody, and very well done. Love the inclusion of Kim Coates and Liev Schreiber in this. The final fight scene is pretty harsh. You know it's coming the whole time, and when it finally happens, it's intense. Good comedy, with great action, well written, cast...I didn't know much about ... read more

Doug Glatt, a slacker who discovers he has a talent for brawling is approached by a minor league hockey coach and invited to join the team as the "muscle." Despite the fact that Glatt can't skate his best friend, Pat, convinces him to give it a shot, and Glatt becomes a hero to the team and their fans, until the league's reigning goon becomes threatened by Glatt's success and decides to even the score.

A good movie

“Since I kept hearing some pretty good things about this flick, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, eventually, it turned out to be not bad at all after all. In fact, I would go even as far as saying that it is easily one of the best movies starring Seann William Scott (sure, it was a low bar to clear, I'll admit that). First of all, Scott was for once playing something else than just another version of Steve Stifler and it was quite refreshing. His character was also interesting, in fact, most of the characters in general were rather well written. Then, I have to give some credit to the makers of this film since, even though they focused so much on the fact that hockey can be such a brutal sport, they still managed to make it look actually pretty damned entertaining.

" This was billed as a comedy, and it's got some hilarious moments. Turns out, it's based on the true story of a guy who's only talent is beating the shit out of people. It was surprisingly touching. Definitely a great film for hockey fans."
