This should be Hillarious.

Having recently tackled Barcelona and Paris, Woody Allen this time aims his light-hearted European whimsy-canon at “The Eternal City” of Rome in a bright and breezy affair that’s amusing, without ever being funny, and interesting, without ever making you care.

Seann William Scott is disarmingly loveable in this blood-spattered sports comedy written by Jay Baruchel and Evan Goldberg. Goon might initially strike you as brainless Lad fare, but don’t let appearances deceive you. It’s warm, funny and actually has something (vaguely) serious to say about a culture which encourages, and even downright applauds, violence – as long as it’s safely in the confines of a sports venue, of course.
