Review of Goon

Goon (2011)
7/10
Sean William Scott's Unseen Side
20 January 2023
Sean has tried an unconventional role for himself, and boy is he good! I frankly liked his performance, despite it being somewhat average. It means he has more versatility than an aloof drunkard, frat boy and more chops than a fake Monk. Supporting cast was also very nice, especially the MC's love and best buddy.

Also, lot of Canadian content gets bonus points from a maple-syrup enjoyer! The reality of Hockey and pressures at young age are also showed fairly well. Overall, very gritty and rough around the edges, but a real hidden gem for a casual viewing! Hard to see films like these nowadays, so enjoy it as much as you can!
