I assume every Canadian knows the age-old joke by now: "I went to a fight the other night, and a hockey game broke out." I, myself, am not a fan of hockey, so I guess it's my own fault for going into movie thinking I'd like it, but I'll admit a Canadian film with Scott and Schreiber in it had me sold. I even paid the extra $8 to experience the most nauseating D-Box experience of my life. Ouch. Goon is supposedly based on a true story of a fighter who was trained to skate and be a hockey player, and was famous for sucking at hockey but beating the snot out of his opponents. Except, just replace the word "fighter" with "bouncer", and you have the 95 minute exercise in idiocy that is Goon, a comedy so depressingly boring. it's essentially Moneyball with tons of blood and gore, and without the classy charm. The first 20 minutes of the movie were gloriously entertaining. The opening fight scene on ice and the bloody tooth falling on the ice. That was brilliant. When we're introduced to the Main character is where the film starts getting slightly weak, however. So, you're telling me this guy is all adorkable and awkward, yet he has no problem beating people to a bloody pulp? Well, even then I was enjoying the film. However, when we meet his love interest, the film falls flat on his face. People considered the relationship between the hobo and the hooker in Hobo With A Shotgun to be unbelievable, but this makes it look like a tabloid story. In fact, the love aspect reminded me of Twilight at times (take a wild guess as to whether or not that's a compliment). Then we get clichéd "gets the girl" ending? Frack right off. I've dropped turds more believable than that. Ultimately, the protagonist is just boring. He's given very few funny lines to work with, he has little to no personality whatsoever, and we're supposed to love him based on mere fighting skills alone. The most interesting character, Liev Schreiber's is only in it for five minutes. And the fight at the end isn't even redeeming at all either. But the worst problem with the film? It's BORING. the first 20 minutes are the funniest (not a good sign), the villain is interesting yet boring, the film doesn't use fight content to its full potential, there's no restraint at all whatsoever in the film... It's all just one big mess. If you like being beat over the head with BS, I guess see Goon, but for the rest of us, Goon is a disposable comedy to stock video store shelves with, and a huge disappointment considering the potential it all had.

Saw this yesterday at the cinema and while it was only me and my girl and a few other people, we all laughed at some point or other. It's hardly going to win any awards but it entertains and that's what you pay for at the end of the day. Seann William Scott does well as the dim psycho. I reckon this year will be something of a comeback for him, with this and 'American Reunion' on its way. The film is something we've seen done before with the like of 'The Waterboy' and so on, but this is much more violent. And the punch-ups are really what people are going to see this for. The violence is often hilarious but is still likely to offend certain people. Most of the fights had me popping off anyway. I thought the actors did a good job overall. The girl who played Eva was half hot, Liev Schreiber nearly stole the show, the French player did well and even the annoying friend made me laugh a few times. 'Goon' isn't going to win points for originality but for laughs and entertainment it just about succeeds. Well you already know what your going see. ***/*****

I wasn't expecting the bloodshed in an otherwise heartfelt and appeasing movie which would be remembered for the astonishing, rather absorbing performance by Sean William Scott more than anything else. I should admit, haven't yet got the hang of Ice hockey and the fighting thing. But the sportiness and the spirit of the protagonist did rush my ante up - now that's not uncommon with Sport movies. But something's different about this one, Doug Glatt & his 69 wouldn't be that easy to forget coz he's too simple, stupid and darn crazy when he's a team guy. With some good laughs, a love affair and a tough antagonist, it might sound quite clichéd. Yet you would never feel tedious, rather you feel for the rawness and emptiness Doug Glatt is going through. His blending with the team, the crush he develops for the girl, the way he pushes out the baddies from cornering Laflamme, and the final wait for fighting the evil legend is all knitted very well. The background score keeps the tempo intact. Some of the scenes and circumstances needed much detail, it never went over board being too dramatic. For instance, the climax was a bit ragged and missed out some emotional values. Sean William Scott deserves special mention, he sheds all his typecast personas and have acted the character of Doug Glatt with all his heart. Thank God, he isn't just "Steve Stifler" anymore. Goon is a feel good movie which is simple yet compelling and a bit too bloody for a sports movie. Loved it.

I hadn't read or heard much about Goon before I went to see it; all I'd seen was the trailer. I didn't even realise that it was based on a true story. I wasn't expecting it to be that good, but was pleasantly surprised. I was expecting that the funny bits in the trailer were all that would be on offer but the whole film was seeped in that simple (albeit sometimes unnerving) comedy that had the audience laughing out loud often. Furthermore, beneath the usual humour we've come to expect from Goldberg, there is a much deeper underlying story to it. It was even endearing in parts. OK so 'endearing' isn't the best word to describe a comedy sports film that has as much gore as it has humour, but the way that Seann William Scott portrays Doug really did something of touching my heart, and it was refreshing to see Scott play the role. Granted it may not clean up at the Oscars, but the story of a guy who really has no idea where he belongs is both hilariously and sweetly told in Goon, with a great relationship conveyed between Doug and his friend - excellently played by Baruchel - who seems to be the only one who believes in him. Teamed (no pun intended) with the banter generated with the game of hockey and Doug's fellow players, this really makes for a must-see for any sports film fan, or comedy film fan, or indie film fan. There's a love story in there too for the romance fans. Which could potentially give Goon a pretty huge audience. If people ignore the trailer, that is. Yes the whole story is slightly clichéd, but this film does so much more than the trailer gives it credit for, and deserves the word to be spread that this really is worth a watch.

I think that if you go to see this movie, you know what you're getting into. It's essentially a love letter to the violent side of hockey written by Jay Baruchel and Evan Goldberg, both of whom are known for a particular kind of comedy, and it stars Seann William Scott, who is known for playing a particular kind of character. Check out the 'People who liked this also liked...' section on the page for this movie. You'll see flicks like The Hangover, Crazy, Stupid Love, and Role Models. If those are your type of movies, chances are you'll enjoy Goon. The premise of the movie is that a likable, polite, not-exactly-bright bouncer, Doug Glatt, is invited to join a semi-professional hockey team as an enforcer. I think what I chiefly liked about the film was that yes, there's lewd and crude humour and a somewhat predictable plot line, but you'll like the characters and at no point does the movie start to drag or fail to entertain. I was also pleased to see that, as a Canadian hockey fan myself, I wasn't spoon-fed easy stereotype jokes. The things that were funny hadn't been recycled a hundred times in every other movie that pointedly features Canada as a setting. The characters do drag out the old 'eh' every now and again, but you feel more like it's a wink to Baruchel's home audience rather than something intended to hit you over the head with a 'SEE, we're in CANADA!' Bottom line: This flick isn't going to win any Oscars. But if you want to see something thoroughly entertaining, it's a good bet. If you don't laugh at least once, you're - probably my grandmother.

Well the verdict is in, its A KNOCKER!.It had everything a sports flick has plus fist fights. Definitely not for the ladies, that means my non-violent male companions(I don't like to be gender bias).I enjoyed all characters but some did stood out.Seann William Scott the kind hearted pounder,Jay Baruchel the bad mouth charmer, Liev Schreiber the undisputed legend,and so on. Apart from fights and hockey it kept its touchy moments and of-course the heart overall. If you are looking for light hearted, stress-free time this would be a nice escape and at the end of it you would definitely recall your fighting days and an urge to put someone's face back in.

Goon bares a striking resemblance to Kevin Smith's upcoming hockey drama, Hit Somebody!, named after the famous Warren Zevon song. That film, too, is about a hockey player who can't do much more than fight, but is determined to keep his team protected. The only difference is that the song seemed to be more about a man's personal dream of being a successful hockey player despite his poor performances in games, while Goon pretty much stops at "a man who is good at fighting on ice." But that doesn't mean it's not an efficient comedy. Rather than creating a desperately unlikable character and tacking on a contrived romance, like in Happy Gilmore, Goon constructs a likable, if not simple-minded character who we come to not only sympathize with, but yet, kind of love. The character is Doug Glatt, played very well by Seann William Scott. Glatt isn't as smart as his father and brother, whom are both doctors, and feels extremely isolated because of it. His best friend, played by the unnecessarily vulgar and crude Jay Baruchel, takes him to a hockey game one day where, after a fight with a player, Doug finds out he has a knack for fighting. This brings him to the attention of a coach who recruits Doug as team enforcer, where he is expected to protect the players and the team at all times. At first, Doug can't skate or even control a puck, but he proves to be more than a fighting caricature later on in his career. The film is inevitably sweet and pretty heartfelt, despite its simple nature. There is a love story, which the film could do without, but the film refuses to become gooey or heavy-handed and simply looks at it as a secondary plot-point rather than an obligation in storytelling. The direction by Michael Dowse, of Take Me Home Tonight fame, is well done and there's a very nice coherency during the fight scenes. As far as the fight scenes go, I was expecting them to be rushed, cartoony, and a bit too comical, but they're not. They're actually gritty, realistic, and a little dark. They show a bit of wear after fight number four or five, but the direction, setup, and pacing that comes before these fights does the best it can to avoid redundancy. It actually works quite favorably. Written by Baruchel and Superbad's Evan Goldberg, Goon is a comedy about a likable character who does unlikable things because he is good at them. There's nothing totally wrong with that. It's not like in Super, where a man runs around in tights bashing peoples' heads in with a wrench because they cut in line at a movie theater. Doug Glatt isn't a monster - he's a character. One who becomes developed more than the simple plot would lead us to believe. This is a fun comedy. Not urgent, exciting, or a laugh riot, but a fun, character-driven comedy with heart. We need more of those today. Starring: Seann William Scott, Jay Baruchel, and Eugene Levy. Directed by: Michael Dowse.

Now I like Sean William Scott and had hoped that this would continue after seeing this movie. I am pleased to say that if anything he has gone up in my regard. The last ice hockey film I saw was Youngblood (that Raki man is a F***ing animal) to quote a young Keanu Reeves. The plot of this film is simple enough. Doug Glatt (Sean W.Scott) is handy with his fists and for this gets taken on by the local ice hockey team as the enforcer whose main role is to protect the fallen prodigy Xavier Laflemme (Marc-Andre Grondin) whose overall performance was average. The film leads up to the big final, which isn't the game itself but a showdown between Doug Glatt and the ice hockey leagues number one hard Ba****d Ross Rhea played by the outstanding Liev Schreiber. Not here's an actor who has the ability to create chemistry with his fellow actors. What I really liked was the connection you started to feel towards Doug Glatt which is all down to Sean W.Scott performance. I wouldn't go to the cinema to watch it, but certainly as a rental. This for me was really watching Forest Gump play ice hockey and then smack the s**t out of someone.
