    Editorial Reviews

    Paul Newman plays Reggie Dunlop, the coach of a pathetic minor-league American hockey team. His career at a standstill and his marriage in tatters, Dunlop has nothing to lose by taking on a new group of players who are one evolutionary step above Neanderthals. Only when the team begins winning does he decide to get behind these players, and to encourage the rest of the team to play as down-and-dirty as the newcomers. Straight-arrow team member Ned Braden (Michael Ontkean) resents this influx of gonzo talent, preferring to play clean. As the film's multitude of subplots play themselves out, Dunlop does his best to keep the outraged Braden on the team. Slap Shot is the sort of film for which the "R" rating was invented: Its nonstop barrage of profanity and its raunchy action sequences are of such intensity that the film will probably never be shown intact on commercial television.

    Best Sports Movie. Period.by HansonBrothersHockeyChick

    October 15, 2008: This is by far the best sports movie of all time. The movie is hysterical and I never get sick of watching it. The true stars of the movie are the Hanson Brothers. They steal every scene they're in. A must see for all sports fans.

    I Also Recommend: Slap Shot Original: The Man, the Foil, and the Legend.

    Take it from a skater...by Anonymous

    December 18, 2001: I've been skating (figure skating, with toepicks, not CCM's), and this is by far the funniest and most honest portrait of hockey in the 70's. It's part time capsule, part entertainment, part sport, with a bit of mockery thrown in. Watch this more than 3 times, I swear you'll be quoting lines with ease. Nothing beats Reggie Dunlop putting a bounty on Tim McCracken's head. You'll laugh till you cry. A must see!
