Preview: Blades of Glory (2007)

   

Poster: B-; B-

Review:

It's hard to get past my personal disgust with the subject but this poster isn't terribly bad. Though it doesn't make me want to see the film, it's not nearly as ludicrous as the concept.; The second poster features the same design as the first with the key difference being the position of the characters. This second one is a bit more risqué than the first, but no more or less interesting.

Trailer: D+

Review:

Another Will Farrell comedy. Unlike Stranger Than Fiction (Farrell's last comedy), this one looks like an attempt at Borat meets Talladega Nights. This could be the beginning of a Farrell comedy series parodying various sports. He'll make millions.but it won't be thanks to critical support.

Oscar Prospects:

Not a chance. Talladega Nights and Nacho Libre were Oscar no-shows, so this one willl suffer the same fate.

Release Date:

March 30, 2007

Synopsis Review:

I have not seen this film.
