Y'a-t-il un joueur pour sauver la Junior League?

I wish IMDb would let me rate this film a zero. I saw this movie, being a loyal fan of the original. I also thought nothing could be worse than Slap Shot 2 with Stephen Baldwin. I was sorely mistaken. Not only is this a failed attempt at an underdog sports movie, but it misses the spirit of the original as well. Characters are cardboard and the plot was a thinly veiled sequel to the Mighty Ducks. How little respect to producers have for the sport that they don't do any research? A rag tag bunch of ball hockey players joining a ("the") Junior League? The Hanson brothers need to stop soiling their legacy and stick to state fairs and minor league hockey intermissions.

With a simple storyline using the typical cinderella team approach, Slap Shot 3 doesn't really impress. But there are so many references in the one what it's impossible has an original movie fan to not smile multiple times: Dickie Dunn Jr/III, Dexter the dog, the racetrack, etc. Even the original theme song is there. Worth the 90 minutes just for the memorabilia!

Ignore the hundreds of poor reviews. This movie really stands up.

I missed seeing #2, but I have seen the original, and this one.

Many scenes from this one are taken directly from the original, but this time it's a kids team, and while there are some dirty plays, the tone is on playing clean, being good at the actual sport.

What is also refreshing about this one is the almost complete lack of homophobia that saturated the first film. That one was one continuing f@g joke from beginning to end, which would have been humiliating for a young gay hockey fan to have to sit through in a crowded cinema. But times have changed, and that crap is out. It turns out that you can save the town without compulsively insulting and degrading a whole group of people who live in it.

Unfortunately, as with most films featuring the big Corus logo at the end of the credits, it's still a pretty stupid plot, with pretty stupid gags. So it only gets a 6/10 from me.

Possibly one of the worst films I've ever seen in my life. I am embarrassed that this piece of filth was made in my country. This film is an embarrassment to the original slap shot. I would not recommend this garbage to my worst enemy. How can someone make a movie THIS bad?? Its unbelievable.

Slap Shot trilogy in a nutshell: Slap Shot: Great movie, very entertaining.

Slap Shot 2:Bad movie, not HORRIBLE, but kinda hard to sit through.

Slap Shot 3: Abomination to film. i would rather watch grass grow for 10 years than watch 2 minutes of this "film".
