It’s been a good six years between Goon: The Last of the Defenders and its predecessor, yet the would-be franchise looks like it still has its edge.
Again, “bloody sports violence” are not words that are thrown about easily, or calmly, so if you’re going to see Goon: The Last of the Defenders, bring your appetite for high sticking, and unsportsmanlike conduct.
Though it’s nice that he has a lot of his Goon cast-mates returning, it also helps that some newcomers will be making their way into the mix, so as not to let things get too settled.
Even more exciting is the fact that not only has Jay Baruchel returned as a co-writer and co-star of this second entry, but he’s also taken the opportunity to make his directorial debut behind the camera.
