I was worried this was going to full under the bracket of bad sequels. Thankfully, it doesn't. For me, 'Goon: Last of the Enforcers' is on the same level as its predecessor.
This one does have a change of vibe to it though, it's much more grounded. I think that actually works in its favour, usually these type of follow-up films are just cheap imitations of the preceding production. They tried something slightly different and I think it came out well.
With all that noted, there's still comedy to be had. Admittedly not all of it comes to proper fruition, for example the addition of TJ Miller doesn't work - it felt like a copycat of Pepper Brooks from 'DodgeBall'. Also not sure why there was more focus on the Stevenson character.
Seann William Scott again leads effectively. Wyatt Russell and Callum Keith Rennie are new to the cast here, I enjoyed both of them.
Glad this turned out good.
