I still haven’t seen the first Goon but I don’t think it mattered that much going into this. For a hockey film, it got the hockey right despite all the gratuitous, off-putting violence. In terms of the story, it wasn’t particularly original or funny and the acting wasn’t that great either but it wasn’t necessarily the actors’ fault as the writing and direction didn’t do them any favors. (original review)
Happy Canada Day! Here’s a quick history lesson, Canada came to be on July 1st, 1867 and we celebrate this birthday every year during a day we as Canadians call Canada Day. This year is special as 2017 marks the 150th anniversary of Canada.
Being Canadian, I am a hockey fan but I haven’t seen too many hockey films including the original Goon from 2011. There haven’t been that many hockey films so this one was worth a shot and being a Canadian film definitely didn’t hurt either.
