Goon

The second 4-lettered movie in this week’s lineup sure has a lot of 4-lettered words. Seann William Scott puts heart in this hockey-themed comedy, as a nice guy who makes a better punching bag than a player. Of course, he can dish it out as well as he can take it. That’s a good thing, too, because he’s about to take on the biggest baddie in the league (played by Liev Schreiber). Also note that this one was written by actor Jay Baruchel (who also stars) and Superbad scribe Evan Goldberg.

For a limited release, this Blu-ray is pretty sharp, with a decent 1.78:1 image and a bone-crunching DTS-HD Master Audio track. Magnolia also packs a decent amount of extras into the single-disc release. Most notably is something called “Power Play Mode,” which provides playable behind-the-scenes snippets throughout the movie.
