Acclaimed Canadian filmmaker Michael Dowse (Fubar, Fubar 2, It's All Gone Pete Tong) returns with his latest, Goon, a raucous, hilarious take on Canada's one true national obsession — hockey — and the divisive topic of violence in the game. Co-written by Jay Baruchel and Evan Goldberg (Superbad, Pineapple Express, Green Hornet) based on the book Goon: The True Story of an Unlikely Journey into Minor League Hockey, the film is the Canadian comedy counterpart to Jimi Hendrix's version of the "The Star Spangled Banner": sacreligious, twisted and, somehow, perversely patriotic. This premiered at the Toronto Film Festival, and was acquired by Magnet Releasing. Goon is available VOD February 24th, and in theaters March 30th.
"This has all the elements of a sports masterpiece!" Two new trailers for the same film in one day, can you handle it?! Just earlier today we featured a brand new trailer for Michael Dowse's Goon, a Canadian hockey comedy starring Seann William Scott, now we've got another new one, this time a no-holds-barred red band trailer via IGN that will knock your socks off. I can't wait to see this, it looks hilarious and extremely violent and awesome in every way that a movie about a hockey player talented at beating people up should look. The cast includes Jay Baruchel, Liev Schreiber, Alison Pill andEugene Levy. Round 2, Fight!
