DVD Reviews of Slap Shot (25th Anniversary Special Edition)
DVD Review: To hockey what "Bull Durham" is to baseball
Summary: 5 Stars
Just one of those 'classic' sports movies. Aside from the 70s nostalgia, it's the fact that if you've ever worked or played in the minor leagues this movie will ring absolutely true. I finally burned out my old VHS version that I played every October when the NHL starts up. The names, the references, the laughs; even if you don't like hockey, "Slap Shot" can be appreciated for what it is - a look back at the bottom rung of a bygone era in sports.DVD Review: Damn Funny
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very funny movie. When I watched it the first time, I was just thinking "this is not how sports should be played, where is the sportsmanship." But then I watched it again a few days later, and I realized that it is more about how messed up things were in a town like this and in the '70's, and it suddenly made sense that they desperately wanted to keep their jobs, so they did whatever it took. There are a lot of classic lines in this movie, and it kept me laughing the whole time. How can anyone forget the Hanson brothers after watching this movie? Paul Newman does great as well, very tough, very funny. Good movie.DVD Review: ugh!
Summary: 2 Stars
Paul Newman was hopelessly miscast in this pic.It was unnerving to hear the filth that came from his mouth.He is too great for that.Hard to believe this is the same man who excelled as Fast Eddie Felson or Cool Hand Luke.DVD Review: Slapshot
Summary: 5 Stars
Does this really require a review. A NEwman classic and throw in the Hanson Brothers and you have a great film!DVD Review: Slap Shot Review
Summary: 1 Stars
The disc arrived in perfect condition, however will not play on the DVD recorder. Push play and it ejects with no message. Putting into the computer DVD drive it displays a ticked US and canada only. Australia is listed but 'in faint' and an inability to register exists. Whilst this probably is not Amazon's fault discs sold overseas should be playable.

Description of Slap Shot (25th Anniversary Special Edition)
Paul Newman and his Butch Cassidy director, George Roy Hill, made a very original comedy in this 1977 story of an over-the-hill player/coach (Newman) for a lousy hockey team who gets results when he teaches his players to get dirty. One of the most hilariously profane movies ever to come out of Hollywood, this is the kind of film that makes its own rules as it goes along. Newman is very good, and while Hill goes for the gusto in terms of capturing the violence of this world, his instinct for comedy has never been sharper. Great support from Strother Martin, Paul Dooley, and the rest. --Tom KeoghGeneral DVDs
