Now, three-and-a-half years on, they've found a loophole that will allow them to compete: if they can put aside their differences, they can skate together -- in pairs' figure skating. (DreamWorks Pictures)

It has the occasional funny moment, but generally the whole thing seems pretty forced, and it's lacking a lot of the charm of Ferrell's earlier work. A definite downturn from Anchorman, and even from the distinctly average Talladega Nights.

Not nearly as bad as I was fearing -- definitely enough funny bits to warrant a viewing.

It's not very memorable, but this movie made me laugh a lot more than I thought it would. Ferrell's extended on-ice dance sequences are hilarious, and he has a few zinger lines as well. Craig T. Nelson as "Coach" is brilliant stunt casting, but the movie gives us a great team of villains (Poehler and Arnett, real-life husband & wife) and does next to nothing with them. Heder is tolerable, and Fitchner is a scene-stealer. Decent fun, but the 'Ferrell plus Sport = Comedy' formula is getting tired.

Quite a funny movie, but again no real plot to it, it felt like it was a stand up show with a plot in it.

Will Farrell can be really funny when he's scripted with other comedic actors, but I wasn't a big fan of the team up of Heder and Farrell. Farrell was pretty funny, but Heder was fairly mediocre... along with the script. This movie cements the fact that Jenna Fischer is one of the most beautiful women alive though.

An extremely generic Will Ferrell comedy, with pretty much every actor (Ferrell, Heder, Poehler, Arnett, Fischer, and Nelson) all playing the exact same archetypes they've carved for themselves in other films and TV shows. But they're all good performers, and while this may not be a great film, it passed the time and I had a few laughs.

So much potential here, subject-wise, and not so many laughs. The ending was messed up beyond even the telling of it.

A fairly enjoyable comedy starring the (at least in my opinion) normally annoying Ferrell, this has enough laugh-out-loud moments to carry a film as short as it is.
