About this movie

Doug Glatt (Seann William Scott, American Pie, Role Models) may not be the sharpest tool in the box, but he's got a killer right hook! When his best friend (Jay Baruchel, Knocked Up) runs into trouble, Doug's ability to beat the crap out of everyone and everything impresses the coach of a failing ice hockey team who quickly enrol him as protector of their screwed up ex-star player, La Flamme. Bonding through brawls, beer and broken bones, the team find a place in the big league. But when Doug comes fist to face with a violent pro-player, Ross 'The Boss' Rhea (Liev Schreiber, X-Men Origins: Wolverine), the gloves are well and truly off... - 2011 7319428 CANADA INC. & DCP (GOON) Productions Inc.

Not sure what Seann William Scott and Liev Schreiber were thinking when they agreed to do this utter pile of pish! I hired it thinking it was a comedy but i feel like they have had a laugh at my expense! I hope they got paid well. The gay jokes were totally over the top and i wasn't actually sure what their point in the whole film was. Could someone explain??? The end was predictable and now i have lost an hour and a half of my life that i will never get back!! Basically what i am saying is watch the trailer and if you like it, leave it at that. Don't hire it, you will be disappointed.

Didn't find it very funny and i 'd like to think I have a good sense of humour. If your a fan of hockey and fighting then you'll probably enjoy it, but overall, average film.

One of the worst films I have ever seen, no storyline and terrible acting, fell asleep twice only to be awoken by the grunting/dialogue of the 'Goon'. Run screamg for the hills if anyone suggests watching it!
