While I presume this trailer is supposed to just make Goon look like it’s going to be fun, it presents ice hockey as if it’s only one step away from the gladiatorial arena on ancient Rome, where the sport is just a veneer for people revelling in the spectacle of violence. I’m not sure how the NHL will feel about that, but it makes its argument quite well. Based on a true story, Seann William Scott plays Doug Glatt, a bouncer who overcomes long odds to lead a team of under performing misfits to semi-pro hockey glory, beating the crap out of everything that stands in his way. No UK date is currently set, but we shouldn’t have to wait too long for Goon.
