Synopsis

Ever think about the guys who are only in the movie for about 30 seconds? The hero beats them up, stabs them, or shoots them, and thats all you see. Well, those guys are the main characters of "Goons". Follow three disposable henchmen as they stumble along, working as hired muscle, trying to make an honest living. Its pure luck and determination that keeps this ragtag group alive for longer than a day. Will they crash and burn? Will they become the most successful henchmen ever? Either way, "Goons" is sure to entertain, a mix of comedy and action, a knockout of a good time.

    Sorry, but I just don't see where this goes. Super violent and yet inconsistent - the premise is that they are inept, but they kick the shit out of people in order to both lose their jobs and get their hired job(s). Great for stuntmen, I guess. That's about it.

    i watched this and thought it was really amusing. it is quite obvious that you all have a knack for over the top comedy and your training in stage fighting really offers a realistic factor that other shows lack. A little more polish and this show could really be a hit. keep it up!
