Why watch this film?

"Blades of Glory" is the most irreverent movie about figure skating you will see on the subject. Telling the story of two rival skaters Chazz Michael Michaels (Will Ferrell) and Jimmy MacElroy (Jon Heder), the film delivers good laughs and funny sequences of the athletes' egos competing. After being banned from the Olympics, Michaels and MacElroy put their rivalry aside and form the first ever male pair in the sport's history. It is worth noting that the skating scenes are very well executed, it is a comedy that takes technical art seriously. "Blades of Glory" is the perfect movie for you to disconnect from your problems and enjoy a fun plot that will keep you hooked from start to finish.

Plot summary

When rival figure skaters Chazz Michael Michaels (Will Ferrell) and Jimmy MacElroy (Jon Heder) go ballistic in an embarrassing, no-holds-barred fight at the World Championships, they are stripped of their gold medals and banned from the sport for life. 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.
