2.0 out of 5 stars "What a f---ing nightmare.", November 17, 2002

Rent this video, don't buy it, then fast forward to the Hanson's scenes and the final hockey game. Skip the rest unless you feel you must witness "this fiasco".

Most of this movie is just plain awful except for the scenes with the Hansons and the Chief's new goalie who has this "obsessive compulsive" thing going (like most goalies, eh). He was pretty funny.

There were way too many attempts to rehash the great gags from the original Slapshot, it actually got painful to watch. The writers should have to go sit in the penalty box for this slashing they gave us.

Excuse me while I go watch the original a few times to get this bad experience out of my head, eh.

1.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely terrible., November 18, 2002

We should be able to select "No star" for the rating. Just sad, horrible attempt at a sequel. Hockey people will understand my opinion. The original was and is still the all time greatest hockey movie ever. I can't believe they even released this film.

2.0 out of 5 stars Movie doesn't put on the Foil, March 28, 2002

I was excited to see the release of 'Slap Shot 2' not so much to see a good movie, but more along the lines of morbid curiosity on how they might drag the original through the dirt.
Once again, the Chiefs have been sold to a man (Busey) who wants to create a hockey showcase, much as the Globetrotters are to basketball. Unfortunately, the Chiefs are to be the team that always gets beat up on. The captain of the team (Baldwin) is faced with the classic problem of, 'what do you love more, the money or the game?'. Of course, the (much older) Hanson's are back but their antics don't provide enough to save the flailing movie.
The on-ice camera work was great, also entertaining were occasional references to the original 'Slap Shot'. The DVD extras were probably more entertaining than the movie itself which included an interview with the Hanson's as well as a 'making of..'. The storyline reminded me too much of a Disney film (except with nudity and language) but given my choice, I would rather watch this than the Ducks.
Not a great movie yet not a horrible one either. Certainly was better than 'Caddyshack 2'. I would not say it ruined the name of 'Slap Shot', but it gives me the desire to watch the original once again and be reminded of what a great sports film it truly was.
