Blades of Glory
If you love figure skating, you might enjoy this film, but if you hate figure skating, you will probably love this silly send up to pairs skating, the Olympics, athletes, their fans, and the media. The title, “Blades of Glory”, along with the two rival skaters, Jimmy MacElroy (Jon Heder) and Chazz Michael Michaels (Will Ferrell), score a perfect 6.0 in the naming department. Jimmy and Chazz clash as the robotic technician vs. the improv daredevil, but must join forces to capture the dream. Expect over the top hilarious hijinx, appearances by skating celebrities, and some surprise cameos. This clever spoof of competitive sports is outrageously funny. It pokes fun of the agony and ecstasy of some famous sporting events. And lastly, no mascots were harmed while making this film.
Alien gives it 3 “the Galloping Peacock and the Lone Wolf doing the Iron Lotus” stars out of 4.
