Critics Consensus

Goon is a crude slapstick comedy with well-formed characters and a surprising amount of heart.

As the brutality ramps up, and the story gains real consequence, for some reason, we actually laugh harder. Goon is a comedy, often a very funny one, but you might be hesitant to call it that once you've actually seen it.

A disarmingly sweet descendant of the blood-on-the-ice classic Slap Shot.

Exuberantly off-color, bloody, and frequently laugh-'til-you-choke hilarious.

3/4

What stays with you is how lovably awkward and warm-hearted Scott manages to be in this role.

Utimately, Goon succeeds even within the comfortable criteria set forth by dozens of sports films that have come before it.

Scott tries his best with the material but he has been abandoned by his team on this one.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

Great movie and Scott nailed this role. The video star friend on the other hand is pretty annoying but if you tune him out its a great watch
