Blades Of Glory

I don't think I've laughed this much in a cinema in a long time.
The ridiculous figure staking film Blades Of Glory won't win any awards from critics but it's worth the price of admission for the laughs alone.
Will Ferrell plays Chazz Michael Michaels, the bad boy of figure skating and the nemesis of Jimmy McElroy (John Heder).
After tying for the gold at the world championships a fight erupts and they are banned for life.
Years later a crazed, yet weirdly likeable, fan discovers a loophole that will allow the object of his obsession to return to the ice - by pairing up with Michaels.
You can imagine what happens from there.
Yes, it's all so wrong and stupid but you have to laugh. It's done quite tongue in cheek and while being quite lowbrow it doesn't scrape the bottom of the barrel.
John Heder, of Napoleon Dynamite fame, is surreal with his blond locks and very feminine appearance while Ferrell is doing his usual, though considering I refused to watch Talladegah Nights he may have gone up a cog after his brilliant turn in Stranger Than Fiction.
Bottom line, this is very light, a tad uncomfortable for the guys in places but not for the reasons you are probably thinking.
For sheer entertainment and laughs it gets a 7.5 out of 10. You can do a lot worse.
