Blades of Glory

It’s no wonder Will Ferrell does such a great George W. Bush imitation; no one plays the self-confident fool like Ferrell. His macho figure skater and a handful of very funny gags make this by-the-numbers Hollywood gross-out comedy (or as gross-out as PG-13 can get) reasonably entertaining. Don’t look for any insightful satire of competitive figure skating; Blades of Glory is just a low-brow comedy taking obvious potshots. What’s important is that a reasonable number of the jokes hit home.
