Ice-hockey action with a penalty-ridden team and its player-coach., The manager of a struggling minor league hockey team finds success after he encourages his players to engage in lots of on-ice fighting, but feuds with his best player, who wants to play a clean game, as a result., Paul Newman plays Reggie Dunlop, the coach of a pathetic minor-league American hockey team. His career at a standstill and his marriage in tatters, Dunlop has nothing to lose by taking on a new group of players who are one evolutionary step above Neanderthals. Only when the team begins winning does he decide to get behind these players, and to encourage the rest of the team to play as down-and-dirty as the newcomers. Straight-arrow team member Ned Braden (Michael Ontkean) resents this influx of gonzo talent, preferring to play clean. As the film’s multitude of subplots play themselves out, Dunlop does his best to keep the outraged Braden on the team. Slap Shot is the sort of film for which the “R” rating was invented: Its nonstop barrage of profanity and its raunchy action sequences are of such intensity that the film will probably never be shown intact on commercial television., Foul-mouthed comedy starring Paul Newman as the coach of a small town ice hockey team. Newman’s tactics to defeat hostile crowds are based around playing dirty. With the three oddball Hanson brothers setting the tone for war on ice, the team starts to take the hint., A beautifully observed comic performace from Paul Newman as the aging player-coach of a minor-league hockey team fighting for their future after a long losing streak.
