lampliter87 8 Report post Posted September 14, 2011 Looks like it could have some potential. I'm a fan of Sean William Scott in comedic roles so as long as it isn't tooo cheesy it could be alright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

althoma1 574 Report post Posted September 14, 2011 I saw a test screening of this a few months back. It has some funny moments and is entertaining, but the best parts for me were off the ice. In the version I saw, most of the hockey and fighting were far from realistic...the last scene on the ice is especially ridiculous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steelnation248 101 Report post Posted September 14, 2011 I'll definitely check it when it comes out. There isn't enough hockey movies coming out these days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jds 20 Report post Posted September 14, 2011 What seemed strange to me was this movie was being screened at TIFF along with The Last Gladiators-a documentary that deals with the difficulties faced by hockey "enforcers". A big incongruous if you ask me. On one hand, hee hee look at the fighers and on the other, man, what a tough go for fighters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chippa13 1844 Report post Posted September 14, 2011 This is based on the true story of a guy who could barely skate but wound up forging a nice little minor pro career as an enforcer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MatthewRoach7 130 Report post Posted September 18, 2011 Looks like it might be worth checking out. I am also looking forward to Kevin Smith's "Hit Somebody". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted September 18, 2011 Looks like it might be worth checking out. I am also looking forward to Kevin Smith's "Hit Somebody".From what I've heard/read, they're going to be just about polar opposites. We'll see if that changes with this movie coming out before it.

althoma1 574 Report post Posted September 19, 2011 SO a bit like Slapshot then?I've seen Slapshot, but it's been over a decade since I last saw it so it's tough to make a direct comparison. I don't think there was anything as ridiculous as the last ice scene in Goon, but I suppose there are some similarities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
