Sex Qualms

As pleased with itself as any other Will Ferrell comedy, Blades of Glory targets buddy and sports movie conventions, and -- oh yes -- ponders the profound gayness of figure skating.

That review was a bit useless. While well written, who needs a drawn-out, point-by-point summary with only a minimal amount of actual criticism? Especially regarding a movie that we all know won’t exactly be loved by film critics. Comes off a tad stiff. Thank goodness for the little scale on the bottom - it gave me more insight than anything else.
