Review of Slap Shot (1977) by Aa L — 13 Jul 2013
Probably my all-time favorite sports movie, seamlessly merging ridiculous on-ice scenes with surprisingly real off-ice relationships and veiled social commentary. Iconic characters, great ending, tons of laughs.
Loses a star for unnecessarily raunchy dialogue (which makes the movie less recommendable for teenagers), but it's essentially a 5-star classic that is worthy of repeated views.
