If you ask anyone who know anything
about hockey what the best hockey movie is, almost all of them will
reference the 1977 Paul Newman film, Slapshot.
There might be a few younger neophytes who will say Miracle,
but they don't know what they're
talking about. Slapshot was
the film introduction to the role of the enforcer with the
unforgettable Hanson brothers. For those of you unfamiliar with
hockey, the enforcer is a player who job isn't to play hockey, but
rather to rough up those on the opposing team who are playing to
well. Now, 35 years after Slapshot,
we are finally given it's spiritual successor: Goon.
