Pros: The whole production is stupid, silly and fun Cons: Not everyone will like stupid, silly fun
My, oh, my. The things we learn just by going to a simple movie. My recent foray to the theater to see Blades of Glory lent the following insights: 1) It would appear that I will laugh at Will Farrell without a shirt under almost any ...
Pros: Ferrell, Heder, and Nelson turn in solid comic performances Cons: Some jokes don't work; pacing is a bit frenetic
Will Ferrell has brought his comic touch to several roles involving sports. He's been a soccer coach and a NASCAR driver. In Blades Of Glory, he shifts gears to play a figure skater. Ferrell stars as Chazz Michael Michaels, a star of the ice ...
Pros: Fine performances all around and funny screenwriting Cons: A little goofy at times
I was afraid that the trailer for this movie had revealed all of the funny scenes in the film. That certainly was true for "Wild Hogs" and "Norbit". But, it wasn't true for "Blades of Glory." The acting, the directing, and the screenwriting all were ...
Pros: Will Arnett rules Cons: It's not as funny as Ferrell's previous movies
Blades of Glory stars Will Ferrell (Talladega Nights) and Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) as two swashbuckling knights who wield their mighty swords in the name of truth and justice…just kidding…it’s actually about a couple of male ...
Pros: funny, inventive, multi-layered Cons: some subplots don't work, not everybody likes Ferrell dark
There are two kinds of Will Ferrell films, just as there are two kinds of Will Ferrell fans. If you liked Elf, you're in one group. If you liked Anchorman, you're in the other. The first group is larger. They love Ferrell's innocent silliness, his ...
Pros: Fodder for a really funny film. Cons: Missed the mark over and over.
We piled into the non-PC SUV and headed out to see Blades of Glory which sounded like a great lowbrow flick. Seriously, when you have Will Ferrell paired with Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) for a couples ice skating team, then you know that you’re not ...
Pros: Amusing chase sequence. Jenna Fischer. Cons: Not consistently funny. No reason to care about the characters.
There’s nothing wrong with making an excessively silly movie. Sometimes it can be great to just sit back and laugh without concern for the deeper issues of the moment. In the past, movies such as The 40 Year Old Virgin and The Nutty ...
Pros: Hilarious, dry humor. Cons: If you don't *get* dry humor, you won't GET IT.
**THIS MOVIE REVEALS MINOR DETAILS ABOUT THE MOVIES PLOT...** I've read numerous Epinions regarding "Blades of Glory", and agree yet disagree with what I've read. Thus far, I've seen this movie three times, and I've laughed ...
Pros: Funny moments throughout, tons of star and figure skater cameos, decent acting Cons: Some humor falls flat, too many crotch jokes
The hubby and I felt in the mood for a few laughs today and didn’t mind sitting through a good bit of mediocrity to get to them. We decided to take on Blades of Glory even though initial reviews have been ho-hum. In the end, we did find ...
Pros: Ferrell (mostly), some funny jokes, mascot abuse! Cons: Heder isn't quite as strong, too much potty humour
Will Ferrell is very hit or miss for me. There are times he's hilarious and times that he's extremely dumb. Then there are movies like Blades of Glory which are funnier than they have any right to be but still kind of dumb. I went into this ...
Pros: The jokes and the comedic performances Cons: Weak, weak, weak plot and character development
Introduction: I wasn't too hot on Talledega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby though that was certainly one of Ferrell's best improvized, over-the-top comedies. Blades of Glory is a hugely entertaining follow-up. Plot ...
Pros: very funny, riffs on many different aspects of skating, parody of The Cutting Edge Cons: Ferrell infrequently goes too far, the actors are all too old to be figure skaters
Chazz Michael Michaels and Jimmy MacElroy hate each other. One's a loudmouth, athletic, showboat, the other pampered, delicate, artistic, and shy. They skate to a tie at Nationals and neither can hold in their animosity at the medal ceremony. A brawl ...
Pros: Good premise and cast. Cons: Not much in the way of a script.
Chazz Michael Michaels (Will Ferrell), and Jimmy MacElroy (Jon Heder), are as opposite as two men can be. Chazz is loud, boisterous, and highly sexual, whereas Jimmy is soft, artistic, and reserved. In the new comedy “Blades of Glory” the two ...
Pros: Better than you'd expect, not completely over the top, cameos Cons: Might be beneath you at times, overacting
I saw a sneak preview of this yesterday at my college campus, so the theater was packed with drunk 18-21 year-olds. That made a huge difference in the experience, because they were able to laugh at many of the parts that I wouldn't have found amusing. ...
Pros: Funny concept, fun skate scenes, good cameos Cons: underutilized talent. too tame character development
I judge a comedy based on my proprietary "Asthma Inhaler" Scale. The scale goes from 1 to 5, with 5 being the funniest movie conceivable. Why the Asthma Inhaler scale? Because the only time I get an asthma attack is if I laugh too hard. To give you ...
