I sat down last night to watch this movie on DVD still not being quite aware of why I hadn't managed to get to the cinema to see it as I'm a huge fan of Jon Heder and happen to be of the opinion that Napoleon Dynamite is one of the funniest movies ever made, Gosh! Now, when you put Heder and Ferrell together in a comedy you are going to expect big things, these are two of the funniest men in entertainment and when teamed with Ben Stiller as one of the producers you cant help but hold your breath in anticipation of what's to come.

Let me tell you, this movie doesn't disappoint; you really are in for the silliest, most hilarious 93 minutes of your life week. Chazz Michael Michaels (Will Ferrell) and Jimmy MacElroy (Jon Heder) are rival figure Skaters who after an argument on the ice find themselves banned from competing in the sport forever. That is until they find a loop hole in the system that states that they may compete, but only if they do so together as a team. Spurred on by their coach (Craig T. Nelson) they begin training to become the best male figure skating champions the world has ever seen. This plotline is completely stupid, but that's also what makes it so good. The whole film has an air of ‘Zoolander' about it, probably down to Ben Stiller's influence as producer; did anyone else find themselves noticing subtle similarities all the way through?... Zoolander is another of my favourite comedy movies so as you can tell I go for the nonsensical slapstick kind of humour and that's probably why I loved Blades of Glory so much.

Jon Heder was absolutely amazing and has been consistently entertaining in most films I've seen him in to date, his facial expressions when he pulled his moves on the ice were hilarious and it was good to see some of those dancing skills put to good use again. Will Ferrell was equally good as Chazz, the recovering sex addict and had some of the funniest scenes. One of which involves quite possibly the best, and slowest chase scene in a movie EVER. Cue Will Ferrell and Will Arnett (who plays his rival Stranz Van Waldenberg) on ice skates literally struggling to walk on them as they cross busy roads and slippery building floors. Pure genius! It was actually great to see Will Arnett in this movie I loved him on Arrested Development as "Gob" one of the shows best characters. He has a lot of upcoming movies on the go according to IMDB so keep an eye on him. Jenna Fischer, who you guys from the US will recognise as ‘Pam' from the office also puts in a strong performance as Jimmy's love interest in the movie and its great to see her branching out into new projects. This is without doubt one of the funniest movies I've watched in a long time, it requires absolutely no brainpower and is completely and utterly silly from start to finish which gives it such a great appeal. Anyone else seen this one yet?
