Review:
Will Farrell and Jon Heder play two world champion figure skaters. They tie for first place at a competition and end up fighting on the podium. They are banned from competition for life. They both go on to lead boring lives for a few years until their old coach finds a loophole in the rules. They are not banned from doubles skating. He (Craig T. Nelson) brings the skaters together and tells them his idea. Farrell’s character is a Chippendale dancer type of skater. Heder’s skating is more like hearts and flowers along with unicorns. They are totally different in skating and personality. There is a lot of crude and sexual humor for a PG-13 movie. Farrell’s character is a sex addict and attends meetings for this. There are a lot of crotch shots. There is also some comic violence, such as a decapitation played for laughs. A character drinks to excess and makes a drug reference. I would not recommend this movie to teen-agers under the age of 17.
